Notes

----- BREAKFAST -----
2. Baked Oatmeal
Combine 1/2 cup oats, 1 mashed banana, cinnamon (optional), 1 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 cup almond milk. Place in a mini ramekin or other oven safe dish and bake for 25 minutes at 350F. Add any desired toppings, my favourites are strawberries and peanut butter with almond milk.

3. Peanut Butter Granola
½ cup natural salted peanut butter
1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
¼ cup maple syrup
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups rolled oats
⅓ cup shredded coconut
⅓ cup raisins
Directions
Preheat the oven to 340°F (170°C). Line two baking trays with non-stick paper.
In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter, ground flaxseeds, cinnamon, maple syrup and vanilla extract. Add the oats and shredded coconut, and mix until completely combined.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking trays. Bake for 14 - 16 minutes, stirring the granola half-way through the baking time. Allow the granola to cool.
Once cooled, stir in the raisins and store in an airtight container. Enjoy with yogurt and fruit, or just by the handful.
----- LUNCH -----
2. Avo-Tomato Sandwich
On two slices of bread/bagel, spread 1/2 a mashed avocado, a sprinkle of nutritional yeast and add some tomato slices. Optional things I like to add are spinach/lettuce, alfalfa sprouts, and ground flax seeds.

----- DINNER -----
1. Spaghetti and "Meat" Balls
Boil spaghetti pasta according to package instructions and set aside.
In a pot, steam chopped broccoli until tender. Saute mushrooms, onions, and any other desired vegetables until cooked. Separately bake/saute bought "meat" balls.
Optionally, you can bring saute all of this together in a large skillet with the tomato sauce to make a more uniform "meat" sauce, or it can just be dished into a bowl with the spaghetti with sauce over top.

2. Pesto Pasta
In a dry skillet over medium-high heat, toast 1/2 cup of pine nuts until golden brown. Set aside. In a food processor, process two bunches of cilantro and 4 cloves of garlic. Once mixed, add in your toasted pine nuts, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tbsp lemon juice, optional smoked paprika, and process until smooth. If it's too dry, add in some olive oil or water until it reaches your desired consistency.
I love putting this over pasta (whole wheat, rice or zoodles) with avocado and nutritional yeast.

3. Veggie Burgers
Prepare patty's according to package instructions, or make your own (http://minimalistbaker.com/easy-grill...)
I like to eat mine on a toasted whole wheat bun with hummus, avocado, tomato, any other veggies (spinach, lettuce, sprouts, mushrooms, etc), and nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor.

4. Spring Rolls
Prepare angel hair or fettuccine rice noodles as per package instructions. Chop up bell pepper, cilantro, avocado, cucumber, mushrooms, smoked tofu, bean shoots, and shred some carrots. Soak your rice paper wrap in lukewarm water for about 10 seconds until soft, then fill with any fillings of your choice. Dip into peanut sauce.
Peanut Sauce Recipe:
In a food processor, process 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 1/4 cup tamari (soy sauce), 1/4 cup water, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon hot sauce, 1 teaspoon sugar or other natural sweetener until smooth. Be sparse with soy sauce as it can be quite salty.
