My favorite photo of the 2nd day! I'll tell you how it was, I just wanted you to appreciate the colors of nature. Without filters.

My Second Day.

I must begin that on Sunday night as I told you I was very tired, so I did not eat dinner and went to sleep. On weekends this happens to me, I wake up late in the morning and I'm more relaxed in other things than late breakfast and lunch later still. If you still do not know what happened before, I invite you to read my first publication of the challenge with a simple and delicious recipe Homemade Vegan Bread You can do it too.

It's Monday morning and I'm at my boyfriend's house so I decide to prepare breakfast with what I have in the pantry and the fridge. And this was the result...

"Arepas" for Breakfast

Arepa (Spanish pronunciation: [aˈɾepa]) is a type of food made of ground maize dough or cooked flour prominent in the cuisine of Venezuela. It is eaten daily and can be served with accompaniments such as cheese, cuajada (fermented milk) or avocado More

"Arepa" is my breakfast every day and traditionally it is eaten with cheese, ham, meat, chicken and everything you can imagine ... For the vegan challenge, I put Hummus, Broccoli and some onions. "Arepa" is part of my eating habits and I think that to overcome this challenge you should only take what works and add your replacement. It's very easy, I want to take what I have at hand, what I can buy, why? because that way I can make this something that lasts over time. Eating habits and our culture is part of who we are and you just have to adapt what you like.

In this part of the challenge, it has been the hardest part, to choose my breakfast. I thought I would be immediately hungry, but to my surprise eating, so many vegetables have kept me satisfied. I used to eat vegetables but only for my lunch and sometimes at my dinner. Now I have included them at breakfast and it feels good.

My Lunch

For lunch, I was inspired by a delicious salad with lettuce, zucchini, carrot, tomato, and basil. My dressing was wine vinegar, mustard and olive oil.

You had already seen my salad at the beginning, but this is another shot with the aloe plant

Extra I made a lentil cake, very easy to make, I simply put in the blender the lentils, vegetable broth, salt, pepper, and garlic. Mix well and place in a base in the oven until ready

The lentils are delicious and this is a quick way to prepare them.

See how beautiful colors...

My final dish with the rice 🍚

I was very satisfied with my lunch

Dinner...

More "Arepas" with vegetables and hummus. (Sorry!, not sorry)

If you want to know how to do "Arepas" you can ask me, I have different ways of doing it, or I can do a post for Arepas, let me know what you think.
