Guest guest Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Okay, so I'm making meal plans, because when I plan our meals we eat better food (because I know what we're having, I shop for more fresh ingredients, and I make time for dinner more effectively). I have made a list of things we have on a regular basis, like udon and tacos, so that I can make planning easier. I thought I'd post my list here, and ask you all to list the things you have on a regular basis. This is the reliable stuff, the stuff you make a lot, that's fairly easy and a favorite for your family. Do you have things like that? If so, please share. Here's ours (I have a diabetic in the house, so I always list what the protein source will be): Udon with seitan or tofu Yaki soba with seitan or tofu Sloppy joes with TVP Spaghetti with TVP Maple-glazed seitan and rice Tacos with tvp or beans Burritos with beans or TVP or tofu Veggie burgers Veggie loaf Falafel Curry with garbanzos and/or tofu and/or seitan BBQ tofu Enchiladas with beans Dal Lentil stew Wheatberry salad with TVP Serene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Hi Serene There are a few staples that we have, mainly because we can't always be bothered to try new recipes. Lentil hotpot (with a little chilli) Vegetable crumble Beany bake Spaghetti bolognese (made with lentils) Cacciatore (made with tofu) Pesto pasta Creamy walnut pasta Sweet & Sour with noodles Pasta with red pepper sauce Redwood roast Jo - " serene (Sandra Vannoy) " <serene Friday, September 23, 2005 4:20 PM Your regular dinners? > Okay, so I'm making meal plans, because when I plan our meals we eat > better food (because I know what we're having, I shop for more fresh > ingredients, and I make time for dinner more effectively).

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Hmmm... all those yummies and no recipes... Gee when I cook at home, I guess my meals are boring. I'm the only veggie and I feel like a short order cook. DH and kids eat dif kinds of meat and I eat none. So I prepare theirs and some veggies as sides and I eat those veggie sides myself. Last night it was potato, sweet potato (which was yellow and not the usual orange color... strange) broccoli and rye bread."serene (Sandra Vannoy)" <serene wrote: Okay, so I'm making meal plans, because when I plan our meals we eatbetter food (because I know what we're having, I shop for more freshingredients, and I make time for dinner more effectively).

I would love to try new things, but seem to have lost my cookability some time ago when I got the career gene (and some picky eaters in the family). In fact I know for a fact I lost it when I was on complete bed rest while pregnant with my youngest surprise. Nobody even knew before then that DH could cook and clean and he hasn't done it since.Jo Cwazy <heartwork wrote: Hi SereneThere are a few staples that we have, mainly because we can't always bebothered to try new recipes.Lentil hotpot (with a little chilli)Vegetable crumbleBeany bakeSpaghetti bolognese (made with lentils)Cacciatore (made with tofu)Pesto pastaCreamy walnut pastaSweet & Sour with noodlesPasta with red pepper sauceRedwood roastJo-"serene (Sandra Vannoy)" <sereneFriday, September 23, 2005 4:20 PM Your regular dinners?> Okay, so I'm making meal plans, because when I plan our meals we eat> better food (because I know what we're having, I shop for more fresh> ingredients, and I make time for dinner more effectively).

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 Of course it depends on how much fiber is in the bread too.

Jo - peter hurd Friday, September 23, 2005 9:46 PM Re: Your regular dinners? I still tend to rely on tinned soups and beans on toast from time to time, but make bulks of various currys, dahls, chili, shepherdess pies,stews and freeze and keep . Trouble is I keep forgeting to defrost them and re-heat, so end up opening a tin again! The Valley Vegan.............
