Question

there are no meat subs at my store and i just turned veg. i need your help!!!

Answer 1

Hummus is fantastic and can be put on just about anything. Try it spread on a cucumber sliced lengthwise. Yum!

Answer 2

here is a great one that is pretty cheap and easy. It does have tofu in it....your store should carry tofu. If not omit the tofu and add some good veggies.

Cheesy Pasta Bake

Ingredients::

1 box tofu, extra firm
enough pasta to fill an 8x8 pan (hand full)
8 ounces of your favorite marinara
1/2 block of gourmet mozzarella
spices: parsley, basil, garlic
optional: cayenne

Directions:

Cook the spaghetti halfway. You don't want it to be mushy once you bake it.

While that's cooking, drain the box of tofu and put it into a medium/small bowl. Squish with a fork into small pieces.

Add the parsley, basil and garlic (add more of the spices you like best). I mix in a lot of all three. Blend with your fork but don't squish the tofu into too tiny of pieces.

Then, grate your mozzarella. Use 1/3 to 1/2 of a block of mozzarella. Put aside.

Drain pasta. Put the pasta into the pan. Add all of the tofu ricotta mix. Mix them together.

Now pour your pasta sauce on top of the pasta/ricotta mixture. Pour a little more sauce than you think, so it doesn't dry out.

Mix all three ingredients well. You can even put some of the extra ricotta on top, if you had any left over.

Once you've mixed the pasta, ricotta and sauce so that it's equally spaced in the pan, simply add the mozzarella on top. Use as much as you like.


Bake on high, at least 400 degrees (even up to 500) until it bubbles. Don't be afraid to let it cook until it bubbles and starts turning brown.

Serves: 4

Preparation time: 30 minutes

I love this recipe....for more recipes try www.vegweb.com.

Good luck and Enjoy!

i comprehend you're actually not a housewife, yet this internet site supplies super records on reducing grocery costs, and it is ordinarily vegetarian based as vegetarian diets are greater affordable! in case you discover something that demands a rooster or beef broth, yet something is vegetables based, only replace the broth for vegetable broth (or inventory..which I desire because it has greater style)! And your dad and mom might definitely relish which you're attempting to same them income case you tutor them this...perhaps they're going to capture on because of the money element (i'm helpful feeding 7 kin isn't affordable) and it heavily isn't a controversy to any extent further!
