This is by far, hands down, the #1 question I get asked... (aside from the obvious "where do you get your protein?" question)
Drum roll please.....

What does Scott eat?
I know. Crazy, right? But it's true!
So before I get into the details, let me get the legal hoo ha out of the way. ;) Neither of us are dietitians, nutritionist, etc, blah blah blah (but we would both like to do the eCornell plant based certification in the near future!) and most people you hear from online aren't either, just something to keep in mind (don't believe everything you read!)
After almost 5 years of eating a vegan diet, this is what Scott has found to work for him.
*Disclamer: He/we eat weird. We always have, even before we went vegan. We don't eat weird "because" we're vegan, we just eat weird. Pre-vegan Scott would be happy going to work with a can of salmon or a chicken breast baked in salsa (the only way I knew how to cook it) and a can of green beans. Now we know better. ;) (And can I just say how happy I am to not have to cut up slimy chicken breasts every week to cook for lunches!?)
So here's what a typical day looks like!

Scott is much more of a planner than I am. (MUCH) Every night he packs his lunch for the next day. He even combines all the dry ingredients for his breakfast smoothie so the only thing he has to do in the morning is add the fruit and water and blend. Also, he "says" it's 2 cups of kale, but I buy the kale, and we go through WAY more than 2 cups a day. Picture the biggest Vitamix container they have, crammed with kale. Yeah, that ain't 2 cups. We also go through a TON of hot sauce each week, too. And oats. I feel like we're always buying oats. He eats them dry with the raisins with a spoon at his desk every day for a snack. (I told you we eat weird!) For the tempeh and kale, he adds them both to our giant cast iron skillet with some Braggs liquid amino acids. As you can see, there's lot of carbs and lots of fruit (Umm, fruit makes you fat, right? Clearly.)
So this about sums up Scott's diet! He pretty much eats this on the daily during the week, and the weekends change depending on if and where we go out to eat or what we have going on that weekend. I hope this helps everyone who's been asking me "What does Scott eat?"
