If you hadn't thought of this, the eggplant balls I have made before freeze very well. It's a good idea to make a batch and freeze them for those emergency "I don't feel like cooking to have a tasty/healthy dinner" nights.

Today's menu is the same as yesterday's. So tasty, I decided to give it a round 2.

Yup, these were the last of the frozen ones. They do indeed freeze very well. I had taken them out when I had my parents over for dinner, so there were a few leftover. Time to make more :D

Today's menu:
Almonds, apple
Chickpea cutlet, mashed potatoes, steamed carrots, cranberry sauce
Pretzels with spicy mustard
BBQ tofu sandwich on ciabatta with red onion and pickles, salad
 
B: Cheeze on toast with onion and tomato and a glass of orange juice.
L: I have taken a portion of mushroom pasta out of the freezer to have for lunch.
D: Not sure yet. I might make a batch of vegetable soup later. Probably red lentil, potato, carrot and onion.
 
B: cereal and hazelnut milk
L: three bean salad, falafels with hummus, mediterranean cous cous, thai-spiced cabbage, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, sweetcorn, grated carrot, peppers, croutons, 'bacon' bits, potatoes in mustard dressing
D: fajitas

^ What bacon bits do you use? I saw some but they had a non-vegan ingredient I'm sure. I know I bought some years ago that were vegan.:)

I just went into a bit of a panic, but mine doesn't have that on the label... maybe they changed the recipe :(

Mine says:
Textured Soy Flour*, Partially Hydrogenated Soy Bean Oil, Salt, Corn Starch, Flavourings, Flavour Enhancer (E621), Colours (Caramel, Allura Red Ac), Hydrolysed Soy, Corn, Wheat Gluten.

Bummer if they have!
 
Apple cake, tea
Almonds, apple, vanilla soy latte
BBQ tofu sandwich on ciabatta bread, salad
 
B- Hot cereal (oat bran, bran flakes, wheat farina, wheat germ) with raisins, sunflower seeds, CHOCOLATE peanut butter, soymilk powder and ground flax. A couple mugs of black tea. (My Mum got me a replacement French press as an early birthday present)
S- An banana and a scoop of Garden of Life raw meal powder with water
L- Steamed kasha with roasted butternut squash, brussels sprouts, beet and apple
D- Either vegan "seafood" salad in a pita with some sweet potato and broccoli, or eggplant stirfry with linguine

Apple cake, tea
Chickpea salad sandwich on toasted oat bread with pickles and red onion
Banana-chocolate-peanut butter smoothie
Leftover Indian food (finally, haha) over jasmine rice, salad
 
Yesterday:
B- Hot cereal and tea
L- Sauteed brussels sprouts, leek, broccoli, apple and chickpeas with liquid aminos and tahini
D- Orecchiette pasta with sauteed onion, garlic, mushrooms, veggie sausage, steamed broccoli and winter squash

Today's Plan:
B- Hot cereal and tea
L- Chickpea omelet (I used this recipe, but with a little flax added. For filling I used leek, mushrooms and veggie sausage) A side of potatoes
S- A banana
D- I had my mum, boyfriend and brother over for dinner. I made lasagne rolls (which for anyone who is questioning, is basically just cooked lasagne noodles, topped with filling and rolled up like a cinnamon roll, then baked in sauce) I filled mine with tofu/cashew ricotta and spinach. If I had butternut squash, that would be a great option as well. We had them with a side of roasted brussels sprouts
