Hello again everyone.
First off I'm sorry I haven't been more active on this community. When I asked for help a while ago I received plenty of useful advice which has greatly improved my quality of life. I am very grateful
Now onto what this thread is all about...
I've been eating rice & veggies for a week straight now. Not that I haven't enjoyed myself! I have! But... I really would like some more variety in my life.
My daily routine has been like so:
Breakfast: Fruit, or Cereal with fresh Almond or Coconut milk, Oats with Peanut butter
Pre-Lunch: 1 cup of Peanuts or Cashews
Lunch: BIG serving of Rice & Veggies
Dinner: Yogurt, Cereal, Soup, or more nuts.
The only other vegan meals I have discovered that I actually enjoy are home-made fries, falafel sandwhiches, hummus & chips, peanut butter & banana sandwiches.
My main question for you is this...
What is the simplest (AND CHEAPEST) diet you can get away with eating while still getting all the nutrients you need? Can I eat ONLY rice & (frozen) veggies and still be getting all the nutrients I need?
Secondary (optional) question:
Do you have any recipe ideas for truly simple meals (like rice & veggies) that I can prepare before I go to work in a timely manner that are still delicious? I hate bland food. I always season my veggies/rice differently each day and use different kinds of rice to switch things up. So far rice & veggies is the only thing I have not become sick of very quickly. I used to switch between the other dishes I know of / like for lunch/dinner but I QUICKLY became sick of most of them.
I really want to get a bigger database of simple food
