Vegan reuben for dinner with Boar's Head pickles.

@tlharin I want eight of these, plzkthnx!

60g steamed brown rice 29g roasted garlic hummus mixed with water 150g steamed broccoli 1 slice Field Roast Grain Meat Chao cheese Sriracha Sauce to finish

Kung Pao Tofu with Brown Rice (I'm also doing a giveaway for the cookbook this one is from at my blog!):

Snacks are packed for a road trip to Orlando for International TableTop Day! We've got minneolas, lemon and roasted garlic hummus (from Publix), carrot and celery sticks, Sea Salt & Pepper and Everything flavored Pretzel Crisps, raspberries, blackberries, watermelon, pineapple, a variety of GoGo squeeZ and Peter Rabbit…

Post couple's workout dinner: pan seared brussels sprouts with shiitake and cremini mushrooms over tri-colored quinoa and Earth Balance lemon butter. Feeling healthy and strong!

I made vegetable green curry over tri-colored quinoa tonight. :)

Leftover Chilled Orzo & Roasted Asparagus Pasta Salad for lunch today.

Quinoa Tabbouleh for us. Simple and tasty and Spring sets in. :)

We are having leftover Asian Tacos leftover from Taco Tuesday last night:

He actually transfers things into a glass bowl I gave him to keep at the office. We don't like microwaving anything- even if it say it's "safe". Might be a bit hippy of us, but we both seem to agree, so it works for us. :)

We are having Vegan Thai Noodle Soup!

I recently bought my husband a box from Monbento to pack his lunches. All the lunch boxes we had previously were too colorful for him so we wanted to get something a little more masculine (he works with a bunch of engineers and needs to save face, haha). One of the first meals I made for him was Vegan Thai Noodle Soup (the…

Agreed. I bought a $9 scale from Ross (on a clearance rack) and it's been one of the most used pieces of equipment in my kitchen. Absolutely love it!

I just bought my hubby a box from monbento- can't wait to share my new creations!

Crustless Vegan Veggie Quiche!

Flexitarian, also known as "semi-vegetarianism is the lifestyle of eating mostly plant based with the occasional inclusion of meat and seafood components.

@mangrothian‌, Kinpira is easily one of my favorite bento fillers. I always have a ton of veggies just lying around in my fridge staring at me and this is such an easy, delicious, way to put them to use. :) They are jerks, plan and simple. He knows it, I know how it, they know it. It's just kind of a weird culture (that I…

Thanks! It was a rough but rewarding road. :)

Popcorn is always one of my quickest go-tos. I get the dried kernels and either use 1 tsp oil or just air pop it on the stove in about 3 minutes. Making your own trail mix from bulk containers at health food stores is another great way to get lasting filling snacking done. Here is a recipe for my favorite snack (I make big…

Bentos are the best! I have a couple that I use on a regular basis including an orange one (my favorite color) and a panda one (my nickname is panda). I also bought theJust Bento Cookbook which rocks. I use All Things For Sale to get most of my bento supplies and just watch and wait (as patiently as possible) for sales and…

I'd check out the Recipes Forum for more people looking to share recipes. This is the Introductions section and you may not get the answers you're looking for. :)

Feel free to add me! I've lost just over 100# and am always looking for new support and freinds. :)

Here is a direct link to the Oh She Glows entrees: Food: Entrees She has a lot of amazing recipes. I have tried quite a few and absolutely love them!

Between 75-90g per day, depending on my work outs. As a 160 pound woman doing cardio and weights this is about right based on the AND recommendations.

The bold part came from a statement that is not founded on any facts referenced, nor any that I know of. My skin clarity and hair composition absolutely is from my vegan diet. I lost a good portion of my weight eating animal products (albeit mostly a lacto-ovo vegetarian), but the significant change for me was when I…

I agree, @jasonmh630‌, but those weren't the points of the original post I was addressing. Price, convenience and micronutrient density were the points @laceyjoe‌ made and I was just saying those don't need to be "issues" when starting a health forward vegan diet.

It is correct. That's why it's "Smoky White Bean Stew". You'd get something similar if you used a smoky bacon. :)

This is almost exactly what I was going to suggest. I substitute honey, maple syrup or agave for sugar though. Also, add a little pureed ginger and minced garlic. Yum!
