Pantry challenge vlog: mental health, time poverty, and getting creative!

Hello all,
Thanks so much for swinging by my corner of the internet! Though this pantry challenge wasn't what I was expecting it to be, I still enjoyed the challenge over a weekend.
In total what I ate was:
Sourdough bread
Carrot-apple muffins
"Hamburger" soup with textured vegetable protein
Leftover frozen spinach pizza
Tons of tea and water
Sourdough discard pancakes
Taco soup
Mushroom soup eggs
and the random salad that wasn't from my pantry but was for my sanity lol
Orange sesame salad:
Leafy greens
1 bell pepper
1 cucumber sliced
2 grated carrots
1/2 bunch of cilantro leaves
Cashews
Wonton noodles for "croutons"
Dressing:
Zest and juice of two navel oranges
2 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp honey
Seasoning salt and pepper
