What’s For Dinner? Vegan Pizza

I haven’t had pizza for dinner in a long time, so last night I made mushroom and pepperoni pizza. I make my pizza on greek style pita, that way you can have your own individual little pizza. I used Yves Veggie Pizza Pepperoni and Vegan Gourmet Mozzarella. Delicious :)

What’s For Dinner? Portobello Burger

I found these really big portobello mushrooms at the grocery store yesterday and I couldn’t resist. I marinated them in some balsamic vinegar and olive oil, then grilled them on the BBQ. I also melted some Daiya cheddar on top. I served it with a garden salad.

What’s For Dinner? Chick’n Caesar Salad

I didn’t have much in the way of groceries last night, lettuce was about the only vegetable I had left, so I made a vegan chick’n Caesar salad.

What’s For Dinner? Vegan Beef with Broccoli

Last night was the first time I’ve cooked in a few nights. I made beef with broccoli using Gardein Beefless Tips. I have almost perfected the recipe, and when I do I will post it. I also made mashed potatoes and a garden salad (not pictured).

What’s For Dinner? Big Salad

My husband was away over the weekend, and since I don’t really like to cook for one, for 4 nights in a row I ate big salads for dinner. I love playing around with the ingredients I put in. The one pictured had lettuce, tomato, cucumber, black beans, hearts of palm and avocado.  I dressed it with my favorite salad dressing, Renee’s Poppy seed.
