Veganmama on the road: Copley Square Market

Who doesn't love a great farmer's market in the summertime? My favorite is the one at Copley Square in Boston. It's a quick train ride up to the city and always has the most beautiful produce and breads.

The market runs until 11/20/12, Tuesdays and Fridays, 11-6. If you're taking the train, just get off at Back Bay and walk a block over to Copley. So easy!

Here are some pictures from our visit to the market this week.

Siena Farms was there :)



I obviously have a thing for mushrooms!


A beautiful assortment of squash. The Lebanese stuff the light green ones, called Kousa Mahshi.


Pink mushrooms? Can you believe how beautiful this color is? It looks like French lingerie!


Mother nature sure knows what she's doing. Check out the eggplants!


This happy market goer found Kombucha at the Shaw's near the Pru :)


My lunch was a 3 bean salad, pita chips, Kombucha and a huge apple. Thanks Boston!

What I Ate Wednesday

This is a particularly fun What I Ate Wednesday meets veganmama on the road :)

Breakfast started with the usual cereal with blueberries, but this time I mixed it up and cooked a big pot of Irish oatmeal. I forgot how much I love steel cut oats, slow cooked, with a dash of cinnamon and a splash of almond or soy milk.


Lunch was really fun.  I was in Cambridge for the morning so I treated myself to lunch at Veggie Galaxy on Massachusetts Avenue.  They serve all the usual diner fare, but vegan!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Shake!

Club sandwich: Grilled tempeh bacon, smoked tofu, balsamic roasted tomato, romaine and picked red onion!

Stick to your ribs kind of lunch, I won't lie.

Really cute inside, right?

Slaw on the side!

After such a big lunch dinner was very atypical...


When Pigs Fly Tuscan wheat bread topped with Barney almond butter and bananas. Hit the spot!
