Meal Planning

Time for meal planning again. Next week is Thanksgiving, and Sim will be off from school. This week is still normal though. For this week, here is what I have to use up: part of a sliced red bell pepper, half a head of cauliflower in florets, some nonfat yogurt, and about a cup of baby spinach. Here is what I'm making:


Vegan Beef with Broccoli and Brown Rice

I used to love beef & broccoli when I ate meat (and also the vegan version at Grasshopper Cafe in Allston, MA), so I have high hopes for this recipe.


Vegetable Barley Soup & DIY Sandwiches

It's soup season, and I can use up random weird beans in this soup.


Black-Eyed PeasCornbread & Collard GreensNashville Hot Cauliflower Bites

I have lots of black-eyed peas, including a fresh bag from my Rancho Gordo Bean box. I didn't make the Nashville hot cauliflower bites last week, so I want to do that asap. The cornbread will use up more of my yogurt. This will be a labor-intensive dinner compared with the others, but none of the dishes are particularly hard on their own, and I think it'll be good.


Chili Miso Pasta with Spicy Tofu Crumbles

I have no idea if this actually resembles the Chrissy Teigen spicy miso carbonara recipe I like to make vegetarian, but it sounds like it has some of the same flavors, so I'm looking forward to trying it. My version always gives me a stomachache because I still include egg yolks, so it would be great to have a vegan variety. If I recall correctly, I think I used shiitake mushrooms rather than cremini or white, so I might use them here as well. 


Seven-Layer Tortilla Pie


Beyond Burgers & Fries & Bagged Salad

Easy Saturday night dinner.
