Fast Metabolism Diet: More recipes

So I'll say it again: this diet is too intense. It definitely wasn't healthy, at least for my mental wellbeing.

Despite that, I did make some pretty great food.

I made my second attempt at vegetarian meatballs and unfortunately once again fell a bit short.  I was short on breadcrumbs and didn't feel like making more. Big mistake, as they were too loose couldn't easily be formed into a ball. You really need all the breadcrumbs to bind it together. Yet despite all that they were still very tasty and I would recommend the recipe.. 
Cannellini Bean "Meatballs"

This next recipe is one that I would make again in a heartbeat. So delicious! Homemade white bean hummus gets baked on top of zucchini, onion and eggplant with marinara sauce-so delicious! Never would have thought of that combination!

Vegetarian tom yum
I wasn't crazy about this soup (probably just because I ate it for four meals in 2 days) but it was a good learning experience, as I used lemongrass and kafir leaves for the first time. The broth had a complex array of flavors. Wonderful ingredients!
