What do you eat on a typical day (vegans and vegetarians only)?

Question

Also please name your ethnicity if you are comfortable doing so.

If you're like me and scrounge around for anything that didn't have eyes, feel free to say so. I am too lazy to cook;)

Answer 1

Breakfast: muesli and plain yogurt or a smoothie with frozen fruit and yogurt

Lunch: I usually make big batches of soup and freeze them in little containers so they're easy to eat. And not just wimpy vegetable soup, good hearty soup with lots of beans. I really enjoy sandwiches with the Yves veggie meats too (the salami is the best)

Dinner: Chili, curries, stirfries,

I cook alot with TVP (texturized vegetable protien) - it's much easier to use than tofu and much cheaper. You can buy it in dry chunks or slices from bulk stores and you reconstitute it with hot water. It absorbs sauce better than tofu. Most veggie "meats" are made of TVP. It's great in chili or curries.

Also a great product is the deep fried tofu puffs, they can be added to stir-frys without being marinated like other tofus. They absorb the sauce really well, they're like little tofu pillows.

The key to being a successful vegetarian is making large amounts of food and freezing it for later....then you don't have to worry about prep all the time and you won't resort to expensive easy meals....not every day at least.

Answer 2

I'm big on plentiful salads filled to the top with a variety of leaves and veggies. Beans, whole wheat pasta, or brown rice add some protien and texture. Nuts and fruit as well. Then there's oatmeal or another hot cereal, or cold cereal with rice milk for breakfast. Dinner is usually more thought out cause hubby eats meat. So I'll make a whole grain dish that is my daughter's and my main dish, but hubby's side. Then 2-3 different vegetables. And if I don't feel like cooking one of a few fast food joints (Chipotle, Subway, Chinese) hits the spot!

Answer 3

Lunch: MorningStar Farms Philly Cheese Steak Burger on a wheat roll.

Dinner: Amy's Organic Broccoli Pot Pie with Cheddar Cheese Sauce. My cousin got me hooked on 'em.

Same thing...every day. It's good stuff.

Sometimes, late at night, if I'm hungry I'll make a peanut butter and marshmallow quesadilla. It's really tasty.
