MONDAY

Recipes from National Vegetarian Week, Sept.28 to Oct.4, 1992

Menu - serves 4

BREAKFAST
Because this is a special week, why not be good to yourself and start each day with something more than a cup of black coffee and a piece of toast. Every day try one of these different breakfast ideas that are hardly any more time-consuming than that piece of toast! Fruit juice, grilled field mushrooms and tomatoes an granary toast, tea or coffee.

LUNCH
As much of the snack food we all eat throughout the day is vegetarian, these lunch ideas will seem very familiar. Jacket potato filled with whatever you fancy from this list: grated vegetarian cheddar and pickle, baked beans, houmous and sliced tomatoes, avocado and cottage cheese.

DINNER

Nutty Stir-fried Vegetable Rice

(Recipe developed with KP Foods)

2oz / 50g salted peanuts
1 red pepper
2oz / 56g cashews
1 carrot

6oz / 150g broccoli
1 clove garlic, crushed
2oz / 50g frozen sweetcorn
6oz / 150g cooked brown rice

 

1. Sauté the onion in the oil in a frying pan or wok for 2-3 minutes.

2. Add the garlic and continue to sauté for a further 2-3 minutes, stirring regularly.

3. Thinly slice the pepper and the carrot. Slice the mushrooms. Break the broccoli head into tiny florets, peel the stalk and chop finely. Add these to the pan with the sweetcorn. Stir-fry the vegetables for 5 minutes, or until the carrot and broccoli have begun to cook.
