http://www.randomgirl.com/recipes.html THis site is full of tried and true recipes that are vegan - really great resource.
This is what she says " For the past 8 years, I've been a cooking fiend here at home base. I've gotten quite passionate about my vegan meals and love to make them, so I thought I would share them with the world! My thing is that whenever I crave something that I can't have because it's not vegan, I simply figure out how to make it vegan! All of the recipes on this page I have made many times, and I stand by them 100%. Only the very best make it to this page. I do not claim that they are all the healthiest things to eat, that they are all a snap to prepare or that they are cheap to make. But damn, they all taste good!
About the recipes on this page.... most of them are veganized versions of "regular" recipes that I altered to suit my vegan needs. Some of them were emailed to me by people who read this page. Some of them are from the books "How it All Vegan," "The Garden of Vegan" or "La Dolce Vegan" by Sarah Kramer. I have marked those recipes with a VW (Vegan Warrior), so if you like them, go and visit their Go Vegan page, and please please buy their books. I've also started to include a few recipes from Isa Chandra Moskowitz's book, "Vegan with a Vengeance." I marked those with a (VV). Please buy her book and visit her webpage as well."
Here's one of my fav's
Quinoa salad with grapefruit and Avocado:
2 cups water
1 tsp salt
1 cup quinoa, washed, rinsed and drained - 250ml
(when cooking quinoa: 1 part quinoa to 2 parts water)

2 tbsp fresh squeezed lime juice
2 tsp granulated cane suger or raw sugar
pinch of freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup vegetable oil - 75ml
1 red grapefruit, peeled, sectioned and each section cut into thirds
1 avocado, pelled, pitted and cut into cubes
sliced red spanish onion (as much as you want)
____________
1. In a pot boil water.
2. Add quinoa, stirring to prevent clumps, and return to boil. Cover and reduce to simmer for 15mins or until tender and liquid is absorbed.
3. Remove from heat, let stand uncovered for about 5 mins.
4. In a small bowl, whisk together mint, lime juice, sugar, pepper and oil.
5. Add grapefruit pieces, avocado, onion and quinoa. Toss lightly to coat in dressing.

You can use oranges if you dont have/like red grapefruits.
I like to throw in some baby spinach leaves and pine nuts.
Its yummy, healthy, vegan and packed with protein.
Enjoy ......
