Playing with fire - Vegan Grilling fun

I recently cooked at a picnic. There was the standard non-veg fare and I was able to cook tofu( marinated) and pineapple and peaches.

The grilled fruit was mixed with fresh blueberries, green onions and balsamic vinegar/orange juice.


Planning on quartering some red and green cabbage and sprinkling with vinegar and putting on hot grill for a few minutes each side and serving with a creamy ( soy yogurt base) basil-garlic dressing.

Figs and Cherries for a Morning Snack

I am standing at the computer buzzing and brimming with energy as I have eaten a handful of fresh sweet cherries and 5-6 figs (black mission). They are like popping a handful of jelly beans, a couple gummy bears and washing it down with jolt cola. WOW.

I think I will try to use these for future running foods, even race day fuel out on the trail.

I have tried dates as race/running fuel and they worked well and I am sure these would too. Would these kick it up they they are today? Gotta love that kind of energy.

This morning after a little workout and some stretching I ate some cherries, a banana and sun butter on sesame crackers. Good fuel and now 4 hours later this fruit is pumping me up.
