Tofu and soy products give me a lot of gas and rumbly tummy. I cut them out, and now only eat them now and then with much better results.
I was vegan, then started eating turkey and tuna on occasion because I felt I needed more protein. Otherwise, I eat:
Breakfast - I warm some rice milk and a chopped banana in the microwave. Then I add some rice protein powder (vanilla flavor), and muesli that has fennel in it. I get it in bulk from Whole Foods.
Snack - peanut butter on three or four rye crackers
Lunch - Avo, lettuce and tomato sandwich on a big sourdough or francesci roll (white bread). Maybe some low-fat tortilla chips (I like Padrinos brand).
Snack - a bit of protein rice shake and an apple or pear (no skin)
Dinner - here's where I usually get into trouble. If I'm eating safe, I might have lentil soup with rice mixed in. Or miso soup, some kappa maki (cucumber sushi - no fish), and steamed rice. Or a stir fry with hardly any oil and lots of rice. Or a salad with lots of cooked noodles in it and some sourdough bread (only once a week tho). If I'm running off to dance class, I'll have a smoothie made with soy yogurt or rice milk, protein powder, a banana and a bit of other frozen fruit, and a piece of spelt bread toast. Or I'll have a rice and bean burrito (no salsa).
Hope this helps!
