#Spicy Black Bean Potato Salad

[vidaamour]

Vegan/Vegetarian shopping list:

Pre Made salad bags (it’s a lot cheaper to just buy bagged salad and add to it, then buying a bunch of ingredients that will go bad if not used)

Make a list of fruits and vegetables that you like and get them (some times if you get the funky shaped ones you get a few cents off, even if you don’t that stops the funky shaped produce from being tossed)

Nut butters (most almond and peanut butters are vegan, jelly and Jams aren’t because they’re made with gelatin)

Bread, check the ingredients because a lot of breads are accidentally vegan/vegetarian ( Vegetarian/Vegan (link) Sandwiches will be your best friend)

Pasta (like bread a lot of pasta is accidentally vegan, CHECK THE INGREDIENTS)

Rice and beans are some of the cheapest things to buy, buy them dry and you can have them for a while in your pantry

Google vegan ramen, (if you’re like me and love spicy ramen then you’ll be happy to know Samyang 2x spicy hot chicken flavor Ramen in the red pack is VEGAN they use artificial chicken flavor rather then animal products. Vegan Kimchi regular and spicy is a lot easier to find then you may think just look for ones without fish sauce and shrimp)

Tofu (tofu is very versatile and it’s great source of vegan/vegetarian protein made from soy, it takes flavor beautifully and it’s relatively cheap firm/extra firm is best)

Cheese (there are so many vegan cheese options, for grated parmigiana follow your heart has both grated and shredded, Violife has a block. Violife has the best shredded substitutes, and singles. Daiya is a little weird in my opinion however they’re cheddar dairy free Mac and cheese is amazing (you just gotta use different pasta then it comes with)

Meat substitutes ( We’ve come a long way with decent vegan meat substitutes, beyond meat makes a whole variety of plant based meat substitutes that are very tasty especially if you’re still craving that meaty texture. Impossible meat substitutes also has amazing plant based meat substitutes, Impossible also has vegan chicken nuggets that tastes like McDonald’s and even have dino shaped ones. Light life has everything from vegan sausage crumbles to Bacon, the vegan bacon and hot dogs are amazing)

Eggs (just egg and simply egg are planted based substitutes for eggs, they’re liquid like an egg beater but can be used in place of eggs from a scramble to a baking ingredient)

Dairy (Vegan milk/coffee creamer you got options coconut, almond, soy, oat, pea protein. Pick what you like best. Personally California farms Oat milk in original and California farms oat vanilla creamer are my favorites. I’ll throw cream cheese and Yogurt in here as well Kite Hill regular and Strawberry cream cheese are my favorite, Kite Hill blue berry, and Strawberry vegan yogurt are my favorite. MIYOKO’S vegan butter)

Snacks (Lenny and Larry’s plant based chocolate chip cookies, Spudsy sweet potato puffs they have a million different flavors I like the hot fries. Vegan rob’s dragon puffs these are the vegan equivalent to hot Cheeto puffs but without the red dye 40. Vegan rob’s also has cheese puffs)

Sauces (Anne’s goddess dressing is very tangy, Diaya blue cheese and Caesar dressings are amazing, can be thick though, they also have ranch but I got a vegan homemade ranch recipe. Hot sauce, Franks, Cholula, Tabasco, and Tapatío are vegan. Ketchup& mustard are vegan. Hellmans and follow your heart have vegan mayonnaise,Sir Kingston’s and Follow your heart also have chipotle Mayo. Follow your heart also has vegan sour cream)

Seasonings (seasons you should have in your cabinet click here, the dollar tree sells all these for a dollar and most grocery stores sell adobo)

After what can only presumed to be hours of cooking, the stag's got a rather extensive Cajun feast set up for whoever might be interested to enjoy. Don’t worry; there’s enough for everyone.

Let’s have a look-see at what he’s made, shall we?

New Orleans Gumbo, Chicken Pasta, Red Beans and Rice, Shrimp and Grits, Jambalaya, Smothered Chicken, Louisiana Deviled Crab Cakes, Smothered Cabbage and Potatoes, Cajun-Style Fried Deviled Eggs, a spicy dipping sauce, Corn Maque Choux, Boudin Balls, Dirty Rice, Black-Eyed Peas, Potato Salad, Oven Roasted Sweet Potato Wedges, and even some Pineapple and Coconut Cake for dessert (despite his sugar allergy)!

Even if he's the only one that partakes, Cal is still pretty damn proud of his own work.

Happy Thanksgiving!

good things this week:

THE KRAKEN WON GAME 6! god, we go down by one friggin game in the series and suddenly everyone's all "welp, it was a great season, impressive to have gotten this far really" man, y'all could go fuck yourselves when you were yammering about Colorado in 4 and y'all can still go fuck yourselves now. GAME 7 HERE WE GO

it was a GREAT game too, our power play is finally coming together, passes lookin crisp, energy through the roof, so much fun

got all my seeds in! I love muckin around in the dirt

cleaned up the spare room and now I have space to work out without bumping my elbows into anything \o/

this week's Ted Lasso ep was good, loved how they did Colin's storyline and I also like what's going on with Roy

made a really good avocado sauce over pasta, and a black bean quesadilla, and potato salad, and a blood orange screwdriver that turned out great

I was listening to two dudes talk playoffs on the radio and completely out of the blue in the middle of the conversation about the Seattle/Dallas series one guy says to the other "are you a cab guy or merlot? you're a man's man, you're tough, you should try a spicy zinfandel" and I hurt myself laughing, wtf, what a plot twist

someone commented on one of my fics saying it connected with them in a very personal way that really touched me <3

the fucking Grindr post has FINALLY (at 42k notes) settled down enough that I'm not getting the 99+ badge on my notifs every single time I visit tumblr

the silly ficlet about why tf Jamie said he was flattered has ~1.7k notes, which is a nice substantial but manageable amount of attention that does not stress me out like going viral does

bee friend on my rosemary :) and some lil pink flowers popping up around the yard, idk what they are but they're cheerful!

Cal always makes food for the holidays—and by god did he deliver!

(For those that were around last year: yes, this IS the same menu.)

Of course he invites those closest to him. That’s what Thanksgiving is all about: spending it with friends and family! ( This includes: @concubuck @dementedstatic @deerly-beloveded @alastorous-disaterous @shika-the-satyr @phisaya @remnantsouls (for Able and Esther), @a-hazbin-spider, @furby-organist, @rosiesemporium, and @hazbinbargainbin (for Dan and Ang)! If anyone else feels like they should have been invited but I forgot to mention you, please let me know! )

Stamp Proper Foods, 4500 Los Feliz Blvd, Ste C, Los Angeles (Los Feliz), CA 90027

I’ve passed by Stamp Proper Foods so many times…always wondered about it and I finally went. It’s not as hip or bougie as I expected for a place in Los Feliz. The focus is on healthy food, including many vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. The menu is extensive; it’s comfort food but healthy. They serve organic coffee from LA’s Groundworks.

They have a case of pastries, including cookies, croissants, brownies, and banana bread. Some items are vegan, some gluten-free, some vegan and gluten-free.

The menu includes waffles, French toast, pancakes, breakfast burritos, fancy toasts, omelettes, quesadillas, tacos, salads, wraps, sandwiches, soups, burgers, gluten-free pasta, and desserts. They have a full espresso bar, wine, beer, and smoothies. Breakfast is served all day. Happy hour with alcoholic drink specials is from 3 PM – 5:30 PM.

Vegan breakfast burrito with drip coffee ($17): The burrito is $16 a la carte, so the breakfast special is a good deal. The burrito was filling and had mashed non-gmo tofu, roasted potatoes cubes, spinach, red bell peppers, mushrooms, homemade guacamole and black beans. The whole wheat tortilla was warmed on the grill. It was on the wet side and was like a tofu scramble with veggies. The tofu was seasoned with a spicy yellow curry spice blend. The house salsa looked like tomato puree but tasted better than it looked. The burrito was solid but not special.

Drip coffee: Pretty bitter

The place is fairly large with indoor and outdoor seating. The ambiance is cozy and inviting.  Order at the counter and get a number. They’ll bring your food to the table. The décor is comfortable with communal tables and some smaller tables, framed pictures of Hollywood celebrities (with autographs from Steven Spielberg and Dustin Hoffman).

They have stamp (frequent buyer) cards for coffee drinks. Yes, they have free wi-fi and laptop campers. Parking can be challenging in the area. They have parking but it’s valet only.

3.5 out of 5 stars

Dietary Recommendations for an Ileostomy

During ileostomy surgery, the entire colon, rectum, and anus are removed or bypassed. An ileostomy is placed by the surgeon through an opening in the abdominal wall. The end portion of the ileum (part of your small intestine) is brought through the abdominal wall, forming what is called the stoma.

The stoma must be covered with a bag at all times to collect stool. An ileostomy may be temporary or permanent depending on the surgery. After surgery, your eating plan will begin with clear liquids. As you recover, you will start eating small amounts of solid foods that are low in fiber. Most people begin to eat more normally 6 weeks after surgery. 

General Food Recommendations

Foods to Include:

Low-Fiber Foods: Low-fiber foods are easier to digest. Although not the healthiest, white bread, white rice, and refined cereals are usually tolerated.  Instead, I would recommend rye bread, sourdough, rice, or almond flour crackers.

Lean Proteins: Choose lean protein sources such as skinless poultry, fish, eggs, and well-cooked, tender meats.

Non-Dairy Substitutes: This includes nut milks and creamers, vegan cheeses, and spreads.

Fruits and Vegetables: Peel and cook vegetables and fruit to make them easier to digest. Vegetables are best roasted, sauteed, grilled, or steamed.  Apples, pears, and peaches can be baked.  Pulp-free fruit juices are generally okay.  Tomato sauce and puree should also be okay.

Healthy Fats: Include sources of healthy fats such as olive oil, avocado and avocado oil, coconut oil, and nut butters.

Hydration: Stay well-hydrated by drinking at least 72 oz of water throughout the day.

Foods to Avoid:

High-Fiber Foods: Initially, avoid high-fiber foods like whole grains, nuts, seeds, and raw vegetables.

Gas-Producing Foods: Minimize intake of gas-producing foods like beans, cabbage, and carbonated beverages.

Spicy Foods: Limit or avoid spicy foods that may irritate the digestive system.

Certain Fruits and Vegetables: Limit or avoid high-fiber fruits and vegetables with skins or seeds.

Dairy: lactose can cause gas in the stoma and is generally not well tolerated.  It's best to avoid all dairy.

Beverages: Avoid caffeinated coffee and tea, hot chocolate, carbonated beverages, soda and sugary beverages.

Fiber

Dietary fiber is present in all plant food in the form of soluble and insoluble fibers. After having an ileostomy, you should avoid foods rich in insoluble fiber (bran-enriched breads and cereals, certain fruits and vegetables, legumes, and dried beans) and eat more foods rich in soluble fiber (oats, rye, barley, apples, bananas). These recommended diet changes can help reduce unpleasant symptoms of diarrhea, odor, and gas; help avoid blockage of your stoma; and help your body absorb nutrients from your food as you heal from surgery. 

Insolube Fiber (AVOID)

Whole Grains Whole Wheat Brown Rice Quinoa Couscous Bulgar Whole Wheat Products Bread, pasta, crackers Bran Products Bran muffins or cereal Vegetables Corn Broccoli Cauliflower Brussels Sprouts Cabbage Green Beans Celery Radishes Sweet Potatoes (can have but remove the skin before cooking) Carrots (can have but peel and cook) Fruits Raw cold fruit like apples and pears (with skin on) Berries Grapes Kiwi Legumes Lentils Chickpeas Kidney Beans Black Beans Split Peas Nuts and Seeds Avoid all nuts and seeds in their original form.  You may be able to tolerate a small amount of nut butters, nut milks, and nut creamers

Soluble Fiber (INCLUDE)

Grains Oats Rye Vegetables Most vegetables if peeled and cooked.  Salad - lettuce, remove the seeds in tomatoes and cucumbers Fruit Apples and pears with skin off and baked Applesauce Bananas Citrus fruits- orange and tangerine Mango Papaya

Recommendations

Try eating 4-5 smaller meals each day to ease digestion, prevent high ileostomy output, and enhance food absorption to meet your calorie, protein, and nutrient needs. Missing meals can increase gas and watery stools. Have your largest meal in the middle of the day and avoid eating large amounts in the evening. This can help decrease stool output at night. 

The ileostomy output can be watery or pasty, depending upon the foods you eat, the amount of fluid you drink, the medications you take, and other factors. Aim for at least 72 oz of water per day. Try waiting 30 minutes after meals or snacks before drinking to avoid flushing food through your system too quickly. 

When the ileostomy output is high, meaning you need to empty the ileostomy bag up to 5-8 times per day, you will need to pay attention to fluid intake and output. If you have high output from the ostomy, you will need to use an oral rehydration solution to replace the fluids you are losing. 

Sports drinks are often high in sugar, which can increase your stoma output. Here are two recipes to try for oral rehydration: 

1 packet of Emergen-C +2 cups water + 1⁄2 tsp salt 

1 cup natural apple juice + 3 cups water + 1⁄2 tsp salt 

Initially after surgery, your stool will be liquid and watery because of where the ileostomy is located in the intestine. The stool will gradually become thicker over the next few weeks (more like a consistency of pudding or oatmeal).

Add only 1 new food every few days. 

Start with small portions of foods you tolerated well before surgery. If you eat a food and do not tolerate it well, wait a few weeks and then try it again. 

Keep a log of foods you choose, and how you feel when eating them.

Helpful Tips

Include foods with salt. Sodium can help replace electrolytes that you've lost if you've had diarrhea or high ileostomy output. High sodium choices include Himalayan sea salt, pretzels, crackers, tuna, broths and soups, tomato and V8 juice, and soy sauce.

Chew all foods thoroughly and slowly. 

Consume liquids 30-60 minutes after meals to help with nutrient absorption. 

Eat at regular intervals and avoid skipping meals. 

Eat 4-5 smaller meals a day rather than 2-3 larger ones.
