I'll start!

B: bran sticks and oat milk, glass of OJ.
L: Hummus and tomato toastie.
D: Stir fry: pepper, courgette, onion, garlic, ginger, carrot and Quorn chicken-style pieces, noodles and lots of soy sauce. First time I've tried the chicken-style pieces; they were on offer. Nice and low cal/high protein, but nothing special in terms of taste.
Snacks: apple, banana, bombay mix.

german style curly kale tonight with a vegan smoked sausage instead of the traditional gammon and sausages.

(we eat meat as family, but only once a week so vegan vegetarian meal ideas are ace)

@IJumpedAboardAPirateShip that sounds amazing! Can I get an invite to yours please?!

Today I made pitta pizzas. Properly dirty vegan food lol!

Wholemeal pitta topped with a mix of passata, ground garlic, chilli, basil and oregano. Then a layer of violife grated (which melted beautifully), then a layer of vivera plant shawarma. It was gorgeous.

If I'm hungry this evening will have some alpro yoghurt, blueberries and granola.

stripeypillowcase · 13/01/2020 16:42

I make naan (well pan cooked flat breads) with (dairy) kefir.
I know you can grow the granules in coconut milk as well. would that work?

1 cup kefir
2.5 cups flour
pinch of salt
mix all together, form a dough ball and leave for an hour
dive dough into 2 or 3 and flatten

oil & crushed garlic to crush

then cook on medium heat in griddle pan about 5 min each side.

ForTheLoveOfCatFood · 13/01/2020 17:47

S - Greg’s vegan doughnut Blush so yummy!

SapatSea · 13/01/2020 18:26

ForTheLove Vegan doughnut sounds so good. No Gregg's near me so no trying their sausage roll or steak bake (vegan ) until I manufacture a trip out to one.

B: Oatly decaff cappucino and some biscuits and grapes (I'm not really an early morning breakfast person)
L: Goodlife spicy beanburger with sweet chilli jam and pink pickled onions in a pitta
D: Fennel, cape, tomato and chilli linguine

My grocery delivery is due tomorrow so cupboard and fridge are a bit bare.

@ForTheLoveOfCatFood thanks

cricketmum84 · 13/01/2020 19:46

Alpro yoghurt, berries and granola late morning. Then was meant to be making a lentil shepherds pie for dinner but DH managed to bad me a vegan steak bake so I had that instead with celeriac mash and broccoli. In my opinion it's totally overrated and the filling reminded me of what I feed my cat.

Namestranger · 13/01/2020 19:49

I will preface this by saying this is my fourth day in bed with the lurgy and I have no food in!

Lovely teen DD made me a bowl of orzo with a tomato sauce and broccoli when she realised I was due on a verrrrrry long conference call and hadn't eaten.

Dinner was a few chips off DHs plate and a banana as the pasta portion for lunch was huge!!
