I wasn't going to bother posting this photo as it was a cheat meal (I needed to use a jar of sauce up, I usually make things from scratch so it was cheating) but was so happy to see a meatless meals photo thread!

It's just a Veggie Spag Bol with soya mince and mushrooms, tomato and basil sauce, vegetarian Italian style hard cheese, spaghetti and some garlic slices! A big meal but way within my calories and well deserved after all the working out I did yesterday! 833 cals but without the garlic bread it would have only been 633.

Cook the onion first and then add the tomato purée. Once golden coloured, add water. The amount depends on how much to make. I made enough for 3 curries so added a 3/4 to a pint/568ml of water. Add vegetables and then the curry powder and herbs. Cook for 30 minutes, the water will reduce.

Found the recipe.

N'est pas un problem!

I used this recipe from The Fat Free Vegan: http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/2009/09/roasted-beet-tofu-burgers.html

They freeze beautifully, and the color is just incredible - the photo from my phone doesn't do it justice!
