fajitas with quorn instead of chicken. Takes the time to chop the veg plus 5 miuntes, and is low calorie, low fat, low carb, high protein0

Mushroom risotto - my absolute favourite and it's done in half an hour max!
Fry onions and mushrooms, add arborio rice and stir until coated in oil then add vegetable stock a bit at a time and stir until all absobed - Yum yum yum. I think I'll have that for tea tonight actually....
Can add meat or other veggies too. I like pea and ham or chicken and sweetcorn too. xxx0 -

Frittata... eggs and whatever is in the fridge in the way of veg, but no potato... yum
for salad this time of year... go out and gather wild garlic and wild mushrooms... shred and add an avocado and a few black olives... mmmmm ...0 -
- Bean burger bagels with lettuce and ketchup, or
- salad and bean wraps, or
- veg and tofu stir fry, or
- scrambled tofu on toast
i could go on0 -
Veggie sandwich is quick and easy, plus you can add whatever you have in the fridge... So many options.
My personal favourite is;
Harvest grain bread
Avocado
grated carrot
hummus
and rocket with a squeeze of lemon juice
Tofu Scramble;
1 Onlon
1 tsp oil
Firm Tofu
4 Large Mushrooms
1/2 a Red Pepper
Paprika
ground corriander
salt to taste
and i like to add some Organic ketchup before eating YUM!
Pea Soup
Frozen Peas
1 cup Soya milk
salt and pepper to taste
Once peas are cooked, drain and add to a blender with soya milk, salt and pepper until liquid.
Serve with toast or bread. VERY quick!0 -
Tin of lentils. Grated carrot. Onion. Garlic. Soy sauce. Sugar. Vinegar. Some sort of shreded green vegetable, usually wombok and celery. Cook pasta. Voila, Lentilghetti Dahlonaise. I can't have tomato and mushroom because of food intolerances, but I'd strongly reccommend adding a tin of tomatoes or some passatta or something and some chopped mushrooms rather than the soy, sugar and vinegar if you have a more normal digestive system. ;p0

Oh and:
Wrap + Mustard + Frozen Veggies + Daiya Cheese + Quinoa or Lentils0 -
I was veggie for a long time. I used to make brown pasta and dolmio sauces on my really lazy days when I just wanted something good to eat.
Brown bread toasted and scrambled eggs.
Stacks of steam bag microwave veg and anything over based tofu...
Stir fry veg and tofu0 -
These ideas are amazing everyone, thanks! Clearly I'm gonna have to step up my quick-dinner game.....0

Each of these are a biweekly meal -
Enchilada
canned refried/chili/plain beans
frozen veggies (broccoli, asparagus, corn, peas, beans, etc)
salsa
tortilla or tortilla chips
guacamole (depending on calorie expenditure)
Quorn - chicken or beef if you wish
Asian soup
low sodium veggie broth
faux meats (shrimp, crab, pork, etc)
Szechuan sauce
frozen veggies (I'm pretty liberal with these, so it can be more like a stew than a soup)
seaweed flakes
chopped mushrooms (portobella, ****ake)
rice or noodles
These are usually 20 minutes or less from start to chow time.0
