Guest guest Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Mary, Which lasagna recipe from FFV are you referring to that freezes well? Since hoilday-time is right around the cornor, I would really like to start making meals that I can throw in the freezer for unexpected guests. I make a beautiful vegan lasagna but it has silken tofu in it and gets yucky and weepy when frozen. Thanks!

You can be a vegan and eat terribly. Emphasis on whole grains, vegetables, legumes, fruits and low fat non dairy are paramount. Barnard has a web site pcrm.org and has written many good books - one of which is " Breaking the Food seduction" to help you get off sugar, dairy etc for good.

You also could look into a cookbook by Rose Elliott called Low GI Vegetarian which says eating low on the glycemic index will get you to a good place and limit the bad carbs.When you have the time- think ahead for the week to come - say on the weekend, make up extra whole grains like oat and wheat groats, brown rice, millet, quinoa, kasha, beans, lentils and freeze them in serving sizes. Stock up on organic canned beans, tomatoes, salsa, vegan soups, frozen Amy's vegan mexican and italian microwave dinners to add fresh or frozen vegs and make up good meals at a moments notice and the extra fiber will fill you up..

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Stef, The one I love is Susan's favorite lasagna. Here is the link: http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/2006/03/my-favorite-lasagna.html However, I haven't frozen this. I've always just made one and eat it within a few days. It makes a lot. You might want to make one and freeze it to make sure it freezes well before you use it for company. It does have tofu in it. Or perhaps Susan can let us know if it freezes well. I would assume it does. Hope this helps, Mary P.S.

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Hi Mary,It freezes just fine (although my family eats it so quickly that we rarely have an occasion to freeze it). Since it's made with regular tofu rather than silken, freezing doesn't affect the taste or texture.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Hi Ann,I have the book Table for Two and it will work for singles too. The website is: http://www.vegsource.com/jo/books/table.htmIt describes the book as the following on the web site: "Table for Two offers you recipes that are nutritious, easy, and lightning fast — most take under 30 minutes to prepare! With just a few ingredients and simple directions, you can have the great taste of family-style cooking without all the leftovers and time-consuming preparation you experience with conventional recipes that feed four or more people. Great for couples, singles, students, and households where only one or two people are vegetarian or where children and/or adults have different tastes."StephanieAnn Golman <anngolman Sent: Mon, October 12, 2009 5:37:52 PMRe: Re:MARY - A Few Questions for the Group I am the only vegan and every single recipe is for big families are there any out there for 1?"marylizzy (AT) aol (DOT) com" <marylizzy (AT) aol (DOT) com>@ .. comMon, October 12, 2009 9:28:05 AMRe: Re:MARY - A Few Questions for the Group Stef, The one I love is Susan's favorite lasagna.
