Daily Eats ~ June 16th

Today I just have some errands to run... and I'm going to try a vegan ice cream place that I've heard great things about, so stay tuned for that review coming later!

Breakfast:
I decided to make Nutella French Toast again! I used 2 slices of Trader Joe's French Toast, a thin layer of Nutella spread on one of the slices, then I made a sandwich out of it. I topped it with a little Trader Joe's Maple Syrup and some berries. I also had one of my Apple & Eve apple juice boxes with it.


Lunch:
I had some Penne A La Vodka from the Westside Market and I added in some peas (and tofu pups for added protein).


Peanut watching Mummy eat lunch.


Snack:
I was in the East Village picking up some kitten food for Peanut (Blue Buffalo Spa Select Kitten Chicken & Brown Rice Recipe to be precise :) at Whisker's Holistic, and I wanted to try the vegan ice cream place around the corner from them called Stogo. I want to start off by saying that I really wanted to like this place and I'm usually a big fan of soy or non-dairy ice creams. But for me, Stogo was a no-go!

For starters, I checked out their website before I went, and saw that they had "chocolate chip cookie" as one of the flavor options. But when I got there they didn't have it and it appears the only chocolate chip cookie they had was mint. And I am NOT a fan of anything mint. (It mucks everything up with it's strong taste if you ask me!)

But, I saw that they had a red velvet cake flavor, which is usually a winner, so I got that instead...


While it looks appealing, I didn't really like the taste or texture. They gave me a generous portion for a small (it was expensive though-- $4.60 with tax), but I only ate a few bites of it. (Since I didn't eat much of this, I had a Trader Joe's string cheese later on - not pictured.)

Dinner:
I sort of had breakfast for dinner tonight-- one of my favorites, Amy's Tofu Scramble! I also had an orange after dinner like usual (not pictured).


Snack & Dessert:
Ok, so first I decided to have a Mott's Healthy Harvest Peach Medley apple sauce.


Then I had my last Vitatop topped with Nutella and a single strawberry.

(Speaking of Nutella, guess who likes it? I'll give you a hint: he's cute, furry, and orange! Don't worry though, he only had a tiny lick. I know cats & chocolate don't mix!!)


Peanut on my bed tonight... notice the cute little spots on his belly?! :)
