I am enjoying the long weekend, it’s nice not thinking about work tomorrow. We may get out for more paddle boarding as we hang on to summer vibes. Even though it’s been rainy and overcast here, summer weather will be back tomorrow. I have been on a vegan pizza kick this week starting with the Banza Plant-Based Cheese pizza at home with added spinach. The crust was nicely crispy with a satisfying amount of gooey vegan cheese.
We also stepped out to Mod Pizza for vegan pizza. The vegan cheese was good, but not as melty and gooey as the Banza pizza. I did enjoy the combination of pineapple, black olives, artichoke hearts, and roasted garlic.
I also got the Vegan Poke Bowl from Zest Kitchen again because it’s awesome and so easy to get to from work. The delicious combo of marinated watermelon, seaweed, and kicky dressing with so many vibrant veggies is a must while this seasonal dish is available.
It’s been a good week of eats, I also went to Pushkin’s Bakery for the Herbivore Delight sandwich with my dad for lunch one day and grabbed the Peanut Udon Noodle Salad from Trader Joe’s for lunch another day, it’s surprisingly low calorie for being as satisfying as it is.
There have been more simple zucchini dishes because I use up one zucchini and find two or three more ready to pick in the garden still! And I found cheap tempeh at Grocery Outlet that I have been using a lot of this week in stir fries and noodle soups.
And I stepped out to a great local Vietnamese restaurant for lunch with my mom, the lemongrass tofu with chili sauce is excellent.
There was also Thai tofu leftovers, a zucchini noodles stir fry with tempeh and sesame soy ginger sauce and salad with… more chopped tempeh in it, lol.
Not a bad week of eats and looking forward to another relaxing day tomorrow. I hope you have a great Labor Day starting with the list.

I didn’t realize Banza had a vegan pizza option! I’ve been happily surprised with their pastas so I’ll have to keep an eye out. They’re one of the few brands doing gluten-free right.
Me either until I found it at Whole Foods, I was always disappointed to find their pizza weren’t vegan.
I have not seen the Banza vegan (and GF) pizza but I sure will be looking for it! Sounds delicious.
It was, I was excited to find it at Whole Foods.
