lots of love!
and now for lunch.
Ezekial bread, soy dijonnaise, Smart Deli ham,
tomato, lettuce, cucumber, and avocado = YUM!
First time to try the Smart Deli products (i did do a taste test right after bringing it home from the store) in a sandwich. This was really good! I could taste the smokey flavor of the ham. The ham itself isn't the most appetizing looking thing. Basically looks like darker, thinner bologna. But it's not offensive at all. And it turns out that once in this awesome sandwich it is great!

The soy dijonnaise is really damn good too! I was thinking about it this morning while spreading it on my bread. Eggs have always freaked me out a bit. When I was a kid, I ate eggs all the time in many forms. My favorite was a fried egg with a runny yolk. For the past 10 years at least, I've been completely disgusted by the runny yolk. Over hard or scrambled was the way I would order in a restaurant. (yes, Eggs Benedict with a hard yolk... don't remind me about the Hollandaise sauce!) (there is another story behind the hard yolk on the Bene, but only the Granite Falls girls know that one!)
And don't get me started on the whole egg white with the squiggly cord in there... oh my gosh, I almost gag if I have to deal with that! I keep eggs in the fridge, and on occasion I do eat them, but most of the time I use Egg Beaters. Yes, it's eggs too.. but for some reason I've been able to convince myself that they're not gross because they aren't that weird see through cloudy gray white (thanks FD&C Yellow number whatever) and they cook up nicely.
So here I was this morning smearing soy mayo all over my bread thinking... why on earth would THIS gross you out when the gross thing about mayonnaise (that I LOVE and really enjoy doing that disgusting thing called dipping your french fries in it!! Gotta love my British heritage!) is the EGGS that you really have to convince yourself not to get disgusted by and this is SOY!
Soy! not from an animal, but from a plant.
I put quite a bit of mayo on the Ezekial!
and that sandwich rocked the house.
(the leftover bit of tofu and potato I also ate was NOT better as a leftover turns out. Sitting in a fridge for two days does not have any effect on paprika presence. bummer)
