For breakfast I blend two frozen bananas, 1 cup of almond milk and two handfuls of arugula and spinach mix. It tastes like a banana milk shake and is quite filling.

fatfreevegan.com has some great recipes, many including the nutritional info. Over the last nine years of being vegan, I've found broth soups with lots of frozen vegetables and some beans or lentils are a great way to fill up with few calories and plenty of nutrients. Glad to have you on Team Vegan!

Gado gado and Vietnamese summer rolls with tofu are my go to recipes when I've got vegans coming round for dinner.

Mix a cup of Morningstar crumbles with a can of cream corn and water sauteed onion or dehydrated onion, garlic powder and pepper. Top a baked potato with it. Easy, low cal and satisfying!

My favorite lunch is a spinach wrap with cashew herb spread, baby spinach, fresh sliced bell peppers (I like a mix of red, orange, and yellow), walnut halves, and blanched almond slivers. Crunchy & delicious.

For dinner tonight I cooked up a spaghetti squash with a thai peanut sauce. I was lazy and cooked the squash in the microwave and start to cleanup took under 20 minutes. Added some carrots and cilantro as garnish and it was bliss

I love http://ohsheglows.com/ I'm not vegan, but I have her book and have liked everything I've made.

Super-fast dinner: spinach sesame noodle stir fry

Vegan lentil chilli by Jamie Oliver is another fave.

Cook some pasta, add some frozen peas during the last minutes. Drain and add vegan pesto.

I covet this recipe for tofu stroganoff. Trust me.

Tofu Stroganoff
(serves 6-8)

½ lb firm tofu, cubed small (we recommend the San Diego Dairy tofu brand)
2 c parsley garlic ribbon noodles, or flat noodle of choice, cooked al dente

Marinade
2 T tamari
1 T olive oil
1 T lemon juice
1 t garlic, minced
1 T water

Saute
1 T olive oil
1 c yellow onion, sliced thin
1 t garlic, minced
1 c mushrooms, sliced
2 T parsley, chopped

Sauce
6 T unsweetened soymilk
1 T mirin
¼ lb firm tofu
½ t sea salt
¼ t black pepper

Preheat oven to 350. Combine marinade ingredients with ½ pound of tofu and let sit for 30 minutes. Drain marinade from tofu, saving the marinade. Bake the tofu in an 8 x 8 inch baking dish until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Saute onions, garlic, and mushrooms in the olive oil until soft, then add the leftover marinade. Blend the sauce ingredients in a blender until completely smooth, and then add to the sauté. Simmer for 20 minutes, then add baked tofu. Mix with the noodles just before serving. Garnish with the parsley.

Look up the Engine 2 Diet website and cookbook, I have tried many of his recipes and they are all pretty good.

I also make this slow cooker vegan navy bean soup all of the time, http://www.budgetbytes.com/2013/09/slow-cooker-white-bean-soup/
