RE: Lunches (was peanut oil in various cuisines)

[Guest guest]

I bring my lunch almost every day... the beauty of vegetarian foods is that

a lot of it doesn't have be refrigerated to keep well, and some, such as

tomatoes, benefit from being room temperature. I bring my bread or other

wrapping (pita bread, biscuits, wraps, crackers) in one container, and the

filling in another so the sandwich is fresh, not soggy, at lunch time. My

current favorite fillings are avocado with tomato slices and Galaxy Veggie

sour cream, a little mustard and some black pepper, or the same sandwich

with roasted red pepper in place of the avocado. Delicious! Remember to put

the tomato slices on the bottom of the " filling " container, so the juices

stay there, and not soak through the other ingredients. Sprouts (alfalfa,

clover, etc.) are great with either sandwich also. Cucumbers also make a

great sandwich addition. I've never tried it, but there are many recipes for

tofu-eggless-salad sandwich: mash the tofu and add the egg salad ingredients

(mayonnaise or substitute, scallions, mustard, pepper).

 

Hope that helps lunch hour...
