This week we move into summer mode. Kyla and I thought that since the good weather has arrived people might be running on daylight savings time (we are), so from here on out expect VegHead to arrive on Tuesday mornings. Don’t forget to share pictures of your creations on Instagram and Facebook and tag @veghead.ca. If you’re finding value in VegHead please consider sharing with friends… and as always feel free to ask questions and send us your comments.
Breakfast
Tea Biscuits
Tea biscuits in the morning are a nice treat to get you going. These vegan biscuits are light and delicious. Pair them with jam, peanut butter, a little vegan margarine or your favourite topping.
Lunch
Lunch-time Tabbouleh
Tabbouleh is a middle eastern classic that is a perfect light lunch on a hot day. This version uses quinoa instead of bulgur which gives it a big protein boost to get you through the afternoon.
Dinner
Thai Coconut Curry
Thai food has to be one of our favourites. The coconut flavours with ginger and garlic all make for a great meal. Try this simple tofu version. It’s a real crowd pleaser.
Snacks & Desserts
Banana Pineapple Smoothie
A smoothie is a quick and refreshing way to get some fruit and veggies into your system. In this version we use pea powder so you get a shot of protein too.
The shopping list is broken down by meal for ease of use. We try to include recipes that use the same ingredients more than once so that you don’t end up with food waste. Because of this you’ll see that if an ingredient in the breakfast recipe is also in the dinner recipe it is only listed once. Let us know if you like this way of laying out the shopping list or if you have a better suggestion.
