Almost everything I eat contains cashews, red bell pepper, tofu, and/or soymilk. (Thank god for soybeans.)
Tonight was: Fried rice containing the above, plus carrots, broccoli, squash, a cinnamon stick, cardamom, ginger. Serve with plain Greek-style yogurt.
Mango & sticky rice with coconut sauce. Pasta salad with miso-orange juice sauce. Soba noodles or stir-fry with tofu, cashews, bell pepper, and the Five Magic Flavors: mirin, miso, soy sauce, white rice vinegar, sesame oil. Miso soup with tofu and nori. Sushi (vegan) with avocado. Beer-battered tofu with lemon juice. Frittata with oregano and red bell pepper. Tortilla soup with avocado and pinto beans Homemade pizza with, um, red bell pepper. Pasta with pesto and roasted pine nuts. Granola with plain yogurt, blueberries, and flax. (Hippie alert!) Homemade plum jam. Strawberry shortcake. Peaches, pears, nectarines. Hummus. Delicious Indian mushes of various sorts. Quesadillas on corn tortillas with Monterey Jack and (yeah) red bell peppers. Peanut butter toast as a snack. Good, smooth, oily peanut butter. Spinach, raw, when I'm craving it. If younger me knew I was doing this, he'd throw a fit.
Frozen honey-roasted almonds, right out of the freezer. Try it.
Local & organic ingredients whenever possible.
I'd prefer to be vegan, but I have a hard time maintaining my weight without eggs and cheese. Also, after years of living in the Berkeley co-ops, I had forgotten how amazing butter is compared to margarine.
I stopped eating sugar about a year ago after I discovered that I had a hard time concentrating after too much of it. This means I eat my cookies right before bed.

Re: typical berkeley, siding with the reds
I always wondered why they pick perfectly good peppers early. People like them? Who knew? :)
