On Sunday this week I decided to do a little meal prep for the work week (yes I'm one of the sad people that actually has to work the week between Christmas and New Years).
I really want to try and incorporate as many plant based foods into my diet as possible. I used to be better at this, but I've def been slacking recently. I haven't eaten meat (like chicken, pig, cow, etc) in over 2 years now, however I have had eggs, dairy and fish. One of my goals for 2016 is to try and transition away from those foods. SO I want to try and prep some easy stuff so I have it on hand and ready!
The first thing I made was this Chickpea "tuna" salad.

It contains: 1 large can chickpeas, pickles, red onion, celery, salt, pepper and cilantro, diced/mashed together.
Does this taste like tuna? No, it tastes like chickpeas LOL. But it does have all the elements that make you think of tuna salad in a way. I've had it on both a sandwich and as a salad topper.
Next thing I made was spaghetti squash.

Nothing crazy here - just baked and mixed with tomato sauce!
Next was an Asian veggie rice.
This is yummy! Only complaint is the rice was kind of sticky - almost like oatmeal? I need to use something like jasmine rice next time I think.
And lastly - some potatoes :)
Baked with salt & pepper
And voila!
