Vegan food ideas?

tabbyxxcat · May 2013

I need vegan food ideas that aren't just mock non-vegan food recipes!

I have seen recipes for vegan cookies, cakes, pastas, pizzas, the list goes on and on, that are much higher in calories than just raw/clean eating.

However, I want to go vegan again, and before I was eating things like vegan cereal with soy milk, baggies of carrots and sliced apples, and pepper/onion/tomato mixtures cooked on the skillet, but never really whipping together a creative meal that was still made of raw ingredients. It got pretty boring (I ended up cheating with Chipotle).

The exciting part was that I lost 3-4 pounds a week, and I didn't have to try too hard at all.

Help?

Tofu scramble with ginger. Sautee onions and garlic, add spinach and crumbled firm tofu. Add ground ginger, salt and pepper. MMMMM

I had quinoa, mixed berries and a small amount of fruit smoothie mixed in for breakfast yesterday. Very nice it was too

One website I use for inspiration is BBC Good Food - http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/search.do?keywords=vegan&filterItem=&filterItem=&filterItem=&filterItem=&filterItem=&filterItem=&filterItem=&filterItem=&filterItem=&filterItem=
They have lots of recipes on there that might be suitable. I've tried the lentil ragu (http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1139652/lentil-rag) and the Moroccan chickpea soup (http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1499/moroccan-chickpea-soup) and enjoyed them. The lentils were surprisingly high calorie though!
