Do any of you have some very easy recipes for lunch, something easy to make and maybe something for a 3pm snack too PLEASE??
Also, i have heard about Spirulina and Chia seeds for breakfast, was wondering how do you use them??
Thank you in advance.  |
Hey
I'm cutting out fish and becoming fully vegetarian. I can't eat dairy so that isn't a problem.
Chia seeds can be used on porridge or raw soaked oats with a teaspoon of cocoa powder and whatever toppings you desire.
A cookbook The New Vegan by Aine Carlin gives you some ideas for sandwiches if you eat those, mainly based around beans, lemon and other spices. They are delicious!
I've found a recipe to make my own pesto which I can put on spelt pasta and/r potatoes, with added green beans. I will add the link if you're interested.
Spicy bean wraps for lunch go down a treat.
Hummus is also great for wraps and sandwiches.
A basic bean/pea risotto can be taken to work for lunch and heated up (be careful with keeping rice in fridge before heating),
Eggs, if you eat them, provide a good lunch in salad or sandwiches or whatever.
For a decent snack I eat chopped fruit with sunflower or pumpkin seeds and a small amount of coconut or soya cream
Also hummus on rice cakes or gluten free crackers
Nuts
Other biscuits
Dried fruit especially dates
Hope this helps
