Stovetop Oats Combine 3/4 cup rolled oats and 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk in a small pot over high heat. When boiling, reduce heat to low and let simmer, stirring occasionally and watching to make sure it doesn't boil over. Once thick, stir in 1 tsp cinnamon and 1 mashed banana. Remove from heat and serve with any toppings. My favourites are peanut butter, strawberries and banana. 2. Baked Oatmeal Combine 1/2 cup oats, 1 mashed banana, cinnamon (optional), 1 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 cup almond milk. Place in a mini ramekin or other oven safe dish and bake for 25 minutes at 350F. Add any desired toppings, my favourites are strawberries and peanut butter with almond milk. 3. Peanut Butter Granola Recipe: breakfastdramaqueen.com/2014/07/10/peanut-butter-granola-oil-free/ my other favorite granola recipe... thevegan8.com/2014/01/03/5-ingredient-granola/ ----- LUNCH ----- 1. Lettuce Wraps Take a piece of Romaine Lettuce (or any lettuce with a large, flexible leaf) and fill it with brown rice/quinoa, smoked tofu/veggie beef cooked in hoisin sauce, sautéed bell peppers/carrots/zucchini/or any vegetables, sautéed onions and mushrooms, avocado and salsa, nutritional yeast or vegan cheese, hot sauce, and anything else of your choice. 2. Avo-Tomato Sandwich On two slices of bread/bagel, spread 1/2 a mashed avocado, a sprinkle of nutritional yeast and add some tomato slices. Optional things I like to add are spinach/lettuce, alfalfa sprouts, and ground flax seeds. 3. Homemade Sushi Quinoa Sushi: almondsandavocados.com/quinoa-sushi-need-i-say-more/ How to make Sushi without a Mat: minimalistbaker.com/how-to-make-sushi-without-a-mat/ Inside-Out Sushi: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOPTUkux1js 4. Quinoa Watermelon Salad www.annies-eats.com/2012/06/20/quinoa-salad-with-watermelon-and-feta/ ----- DINNER ----- 1. Spaghetti and "Meat" Balls Boil spaghetti pasta according to package instructions and set aside. In a pot, steam chopped broccoli until tender. Saute mushrooms, onions, and any other desired vegetables until cooked. Separately bake/saute bought "meat" balls. Optionally, you can bring saute all of this together in a large skillet with the tomato sauce to make a more uniform "meat" sauce, or it can just be dished into a bowl with the spaghetti with sauce over top. 2. Pesto Pasta In a dry skillet over medium-high heat, toast 1/2 cup of pine nuts until golden brown. Set aside. In a food processor, process two bunches of cilantro and 4 cloves of garlic. Once mixed, add in your toasted pine nuts, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tbsp lemon juice, optional smoked paprika, and process until smooth. If it's too dry, add in some olive oil or water until it reaches your desired consistency. I love putting this over pasta (whole wheat, rice or zoodles) with avocado and nutritional yeast. 3. Veggie Burgers Prepare patty's according to package instructions, or make your own (minimalistbaker.com/easy-grillable-veggie-burgers/) I like to eat mine on a toasted whole wheat bun with hummus, avocado, tomato, any other veggies (spinach, lettuce, sprouts, mushrooms, etc), and nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor. 4. Spring Rolls Prepare angel hair or fettuccine rice noodles as per package instructions. Chop up bell pepper, cilantro, avocado, cucumber, mushrooms, smoked tofu, bean shoots, and shred some carrots. Soak your rice paper wrap in lukewarm water for about 10 seconds until soft, then fill with any fillings of your choice. Dip into peanut sauce. Peanut Sauce Recipe: In a food processor, process 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 1/4 cup tamari (soy sauce), 1/4 cup water, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon hot sauce, 1 teaspoon sugar or other natural sweetener until smooth. Be sparse with soy sauce as it can be quite salty. An alt. spring roll recipe - minimalistbaker.com/vietnamese-spring-rolls-with-crispy-tofu/ 5. Chickpea Omelet Blend or hand mix 2/3 cup water, 1/3 cup chickpea flour, 1 tbsp ground flax seed, 1 tbsp nutritional yeast, 1/8 tsp turmeric, 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste. Pour it over a greased skillet over medium-high heat. Let it cook like you would a normal omelet, flipping when the edges are firm and there are bubbles. Once the other side is cooked, put it on a plate and fold over any fillings. I fill it with sauteed veggies (mushrooms, spinach, bell pepper and zucchini) and sprinkle on nutritional yeast.
