Sri and friends

I go with no updates for a week and come with an silly excuse for my absence. Same this time...Shame on me...
I am busy with kids as their vacation started and having fun time with them. We are all eating too much of everything so diet is out of control. We will resume our routine as kids will have a routine from Monday.
Meet u all again in the June thread.

sridevi1977 · May 30, 2014

Miruthula,
I think you and me...almost follow the same type of diet, except that I did not name it as 'SBD', because I dont know how far I will be going. continuos 14 days as in SBD.... is kind of unsure for me. I need more committment and dedication to put myself officially in SBD. But for now, I have gone like this for the past 4 days successfully. with minute flaws in between.

Nowadays, I steam lots of veggies ahead and storing it, so that it is easily available for me if I go hungry. Any kind of dal will also be stored for 2 days. other than that, I quickly cook tofu this way.
Tofu:

put some olive oil. toss tofu little bit, add salt and little bit chilli powder. For flavor, I crush some garlic on top and just sim the stove. turn the tofu other side once it is slightly cooked. Add 2 tea spoons of ketchup or hot sauce and swith off.
Altogether takes maximum of 10 mins. I add this tofu with any veggies I cook or just eat plain. or put this cooked dish in chopper and wrap with chapathi along with lettuce bell peppers, a spoon of yogurt . If you add mashed avocado with it, or use it as a dip, it will be so yummmmm....

Channa chat:
I soak and cook channa or black beans separately. Add salt, lime juice, green peppers, little bit of raw onions and 1 or 2 garlic , with chopped tomatoes and cilantro with some corn here and there gives you wonderful feeling of fullness and satisfy taste buds since it is salty, tangy,spicy.

I prepare paneer buruji also easily in 10 mins.
Indian low fat paneer ...chop it in chopper coarsely.
Add olive oil, jeera seeds, crushed ginger,garlic chilli powder, some green chillies turmeric powder. let it mix well...add onions and fry. add capsicum pieces.blanch the tomatoes separately,peel it off the outer layer. blend the tomatoes in chopper and add them to the dish. let it just cook for 5 mins and then add chopped paneer to it for next 5 mins and add lots of corriander chopped leaves for flavor. Paneer buruji is ready as dip or major protein stuffing or just as plain.

I love to have soy chunk to be prepared as gravy type with tomatoes. I always wanted to make veg patties with soya. do any one knows the right recipe for this with no potatoes?
I tried with garbanzo beans and cooked soy. It came well, but it takes lots of time to cook one side and then equal time for the next side and I have no time and patience to do that long. so, substituting with costco veg pattie at those times I did not prepare any protein food and dont like to have yogurt or any dairy products and also wants to eat something slightly salted. It has 18 grams of protein in one veg pattie, but has high sodium also. Like protein and fat cant be separated, forzen foods and sodium cant be separated. better to avoid any way.

How many days have you crossed in the first phase?
did you see any results so far?
All the best dear.
