Breakfast and lunch plan for young vegetarians? ?!
My sister and I are young vegetarians (she is 14, I'm 16) and this is the first year she'll be at school as a vegetarian!. At her last school, all she ate was Miguel's Jr! I want to make our breakfast and lunch this year at least four days a week (breakfast five days)!.
I need some suggestions for as many recipes as possible!. Complicated recipes are no problem (I'm a pretty good cook), but I need them (especially breakfast) to be quick to make (5, 10 minutes tops), very nutritious, and tasty to my picky sister! My main concern is getting all the things a vegetarian diet usual leaves out!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I may have one recipe for breakfast--I use it everyday!. :]
It's really simple!.
Breakfast Smoothie:
1 cup of unsweetened almond milk or rice milk!. (There's alot of controversy on how healthy soy is--so I don't use soy milk!.!. and personally I don't use regular or skim milk because it's filled with all kind of nasty anitbiotics--unless it's raw milk!.)
1 Banana
1-2 Tsp!. of Raw Almond Butter
1/2 Tsp!. of Cinnamon
and it depends on your personal taste on how much ice you want to use!.
Put it all in a blender and basically there's your breakfast smoothie!.
Though, I use all organic ingredients!.
Hope this easy recipe at least gives you some kind of an idea~

We love a huge breakfast smoothie at our house - you can be drinking it and getting ready, finishing homework, goofing off!.!.!.
frozen banana
frozen blueberries
soymilk
peanut butter
and we usually throw in a raw veggie (carrot or tomato or a little spinach)
Use any frozen fruits you like, but you do need a good blender
Happy vegging :) Thanks for saving yourselves, saving the planet, saving money, saving the animals, saving resources for all of those who don't even know what you are doing!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Cereal with Soy Milk is very good and nutritious, Served with orange juice and perhaps toast and jelly!. Lunch ideas could consist of a lettuce and tomato sandwich with mayonnaise!. An apple and some corn nuts or baby carrots!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I am not a salad person, so I make lots of fruit salads for sides!. It's pretty quick, and if you make a really big one it should last you a few days!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Don't forget to include some freshly peeled, wholesome carrots in your breakfast plan!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
smoothies:
berries, soy yogurt, vanilla hemp milk, acai!. !. !.

wow good for you! im vegetarian and its not that hard to get all you need!.
for breakfast, i focus on the grains!. get whole grain bagels, bread, smart butter (its a brand and really healthy-it has omega fatty acids), have a banana or apple!. and maybe a glass of milk!. or blueberries in your cereal!. cereal: kashi crunch (lots protein and fiber) or even oatmeal (but i personally am not a big fan) anyways,
lunch! pita bread w/salad inside!. salad can have lettuce, tomato, chick peas if you like them, Fresh cheese, whatever u like! good time for veggies
or pita bread w/hummus!.
anyways, being a vegetarian i think its actually easier getting the veggies, fruit and even grains/dairy your body requires!.
and for a snack, you can try yogurt w/ fruit or a little bit of cereal mixed in!.
remember, the key is variety!. as much variety as possible in each meal!.
good luck:)
you should also try going to a nutritionist!. they're really helpful!Www@FoodAQ@Com
