What does everyone eat?
I enjoy foods such as rice couscous tomatoes pita oatmeals peppers (not hot peppers) cucumbers carrots lettuce soy milk walnuts almonds pistachios avocados(when eaten with rice or couscous in a pita or wrap) occasionally eggs strawberries bananas and every other fruit not big into junk foods
This has made up the majority of my diet for around a year. Sometimes I feel like I'm missing key vitamins recently I learned how important b12 is for vegetarians to get into their diet so luckily the soy milk comes with around 45% a serv. Anyything I'm missing that's important in ones diet? I don't abide by the one meal a day or nothing afternoon mostly bc never really understood why this is important. But I do make efforts in not wasting food.

My gf is also an ace baker, so - whether for good or bad - we always have a small selection of pastry dough or cookie dough in the freezer ready to go. She also works at a chocolate production company, so I get to help "taste test" lots of stuff.
As for what I eat on a daily basis - lots of eggs, tofu, and broccoli. My family eats lots of brown rice, though I don't care for it much. I like oatmeal for breakfast, and a vegan protein shake w/ strawberries for post-exercise or a snack.
EDIT: @Bunks - where I live, there's about 3-4 sushi joints within a 1.5 block radius of my house! I think there was a statistic that said there's more sushi restaurants per capita here in Vancouver than in Japan. If I have any attachments to food, it's definitely sushi.
At the moment cooking oatmeal/porridge with raisins and banana. I am quite happy being vegan, vegetarian, omnivore or carnivore. One day I may live on moonbeams but Inedia is best for the morbidly intake attached.

I do recommend fasting as a discipline measure but it can easily lead to body highs and errant behaviour, such as death. Be careful guys.

the pre-Buddha was a bit of a twat* when it came to food, we could have lost him and ended up Jains . . . thank goodness for the middle way, curry, Italian food and . . . Must stop . . . Getting the yums . . .
* it takes one to know one, and I am a shameless twat
Yum.
I'd eat a lot more simply if it wasn't for this fussy family I have.

There's a popular soupy dish in Malaysia called "Steamboat" which you can read about here http://blog.tsemtulku.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/animals-vegetarianism/what-is-a-steamboat.html Easier than for me to explain it!! It's really good!
I also make my own mung-bean flour noodles, but there's only so much cold noodle salad you can take, in the winter.....
I forgot a big one lentils:) lots protein in em yummm
@ Sharon wat are capsicums and arugula ?
@ tosh I get a little spoiled when it comes to food my family eats meat like almost everyday!!!!
personal favourite
3302 Main St. Vancouver. A dinky little hole in the wall with awlful decor but one that many sushi worshippers in the know make pilgrimages to for the taste and the price.
Is there any vegetarian version of nasi lemak? When visiting Malaysia I fell in love with the dish, but I would like to see if I can conjure up/find a version w/o the fish... but then again it may not be the same!
@how
I'll have to check the place out! I've seen it before but yeah, never paid much attention to it. Thanks :thumbsup:
@blu3ree capsicums are red/yellow/green peppers and arugula is a green vegetable/herb also called rocket
For vegetarians in Malaysia, do visit the Kechara Oasis restaurants (http://kechara.com/dining) - they are vegetarian and have dim sum and many tasty dishes, without garlic, onions nor egg.
