Burrito Bowl
1. Make white or brown rice.
2. Fry black beans and corn together with chili powder, cumin, turmeric, crushed black pepper, and onion to taste. Por this onto the rice.
3. Top with your favorite salsa, along with cheese and lettuce if you'd prefer.


My Favorite Stir Fry
1. Fry broccoli florets and sliced carrots in garlic butter until tender. (Or 1 tbs water and minced garlic if you're watching your weight.)
2. Add baby corn spears and your favorite stir fry sauce. (I prefer House of Tsang Classic.)
3. Meanwhile, make udon or soba noodles, egg noodles, or rice.
4. Add stir fry noodles/rice to stir fry and toss to coat.
5. Top with peanuts and enjoy.


Mediterranean Wraps (or Pita Pockets)
1. Gather a few of your favorite Mediterranean (peppers, squashes, snow peas, potatoes, garlic, onions, etc). Wash and slice them.
2. Put them in a container and add olive oil and Italian seasonings. (I just buy an Italian seasonings grinder, but feel free to improvise.) Toss to coat. Bake, covered, at 350 until tender. The timing depends on what veggies you choose, but it should be between 20 and 45 minutes.
3. Remove from oven and put in wraps, pitas, or serve with spaghetti and garlic bread.


Veggie Chili
1. Heat either tomato juice or chunky style tomato sauce, depending on how thick you want your chili.
2. Add beans and select veggies (frozen bags of veggie soup veggies work well). Optional: add tempeh or TVP ground beef replacer.
3. Add chili powder, cumin, turmeric, and any other spices you'd like.
4. Simmer and serve with corn bread, on fries, or on tofu dogs.


Rice Pilaf
1. Prepare vegetarian friendly rice pilaf. (I use Near East.)
2. Steam broccoli, and tofu if you'd like.
3. Combine, and top with slivered almonds or pine nuts if you're feeling fancy.


A Vegetarian's Steak Dinner
1. Grill or sautee a portabella mushroom cap with minced garlic, sea salt, crushed black pepper, and soy sauce.
2. Serve with a baked potato and green vegetables.


For a super-light dinner . . .
1. Slice cucumbers, tomatoes, and red onions. Add baby spinach.
2. Toss with fresh lemon juice and fresh basil. Serve fresh.
OR
2. Toss with olive oil, garlic crushed black pepper. Bake at 350 until warm.
3. Serve with whole wheat toast and avocado slices.


And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now
