What are some simple, healthy Vegetarian Meals i can make?
I have recently become vegetarian. But since i hate cooking, i tend to make pastas, thus i am gaining weight, what are some easy, healthy things i can eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner?
Answers:
Cous cous couldnt be more simple to make. You just bring water to a boil, chuck the stuff in, put a lid on, remove from heat and its done in 5 minutes. Breakfast can be a healthy cereal, oatmeal, rice, bisquit, toast, bagel, etc. Lunch, a simple soup and salad or sandwich of tomato, mushroom, sprouts, grilled portabello, etc. Dinner, mac and cheese, bean and cheese tacos, veggie lasagna, pizza, etc. Why do you hate cooking? Maybe try some new methods that interest you. I LOVE to cook. I cook all day long. Buy a rice cooker (wolfgang puck from HSN is great, you can do one pot mac and cheese, cous cous, rice, etc) Simple appliances make it more fun.
