Picture this: it’s the middle of a snow day and it’s snowing too hard for you to even consider going outside. You’re starving and are about to order a burrito on Uber Eats. You’ve picked the ingredients, it’s in you cart, you’re about to pay, and- wait. Your order was canceled because of a severe weather warning. 😧
That was right before I decided to cook three vegetarian meals- breakfast, lunch, and, dinner.
All three meals require 5 or less ingredients to cook, and have a cooking time of 25 minutes or less.

BREAKFAST
Yogurt Bowl with Granola and Melon
🍉
Ingredients:
1/2 Cup of Granola
1 Cup of Vanilla Yogurt
1/2 Cup of Chopped Melons
Optional- Add nuts like almond for an added crunch!
How do I make it?
Put everything together in a bowl. That’s it.
Cooking time- 10 minutes
Best part? Everything in this meal can be substituted with your favourite ingredients and it’ll still be delicious
LUNCH
Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Cous Cous
🍚
Ingredients:
1 Cup of Cous Cous
1 Cup of Brussels Sprouts
1/2 of Chopped Onion
1 Cup of cubed Tofu (medium-firm)
Garlic Butter, Salt
How do I make it?
Boil the Cous Cous in 2 cups of water in a pot (add a little garlic butter for an added flavour)
Heat up two table spoons of garlic butter in a pan on medium heat
Pan fry the chopped onions until golden brown
Add the Brussels sprouts and pan roast on medium heat
Add tofu cubes to the pan and pan roast together until slightly brown and firmer
Add salt to taste
Optional- Additional spices such as chilli flakes and garlic powder can be added
Service with Cous Cous
Cooking time: 25 minutes
Pro tip: once again, you can substitute the tofu for any protein of your preference, or even additional veggies!
DINNER
Angel Hair with Winter Veggies
🥦 Ingredients:
1 Cup of Angel Hair Pasta
1/2 Cup of Chopped Broccoli
1/2 Cup of Chopped Cauliflower
1/2 Cup of Chopped Carrots
Olive oil, salt, garlic powder
How do I make it?
Boil the angel hair pasta for about 15 minutes on a medium to high flame
On a different burner, heat up 2 tablespoons of olive oil
Once oil is hot enough, add the broccoli, carrots and cauliflower and cook until golden brown
Add salt and garlic powder to taste
Drain pasta and add to pan with veggies
Add some more olive oil while heating on a low flame (this acts like a sauce)
Optional: add chilli flakes and oregano
Serve
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Best part? Once again, anything in this pasta can be substituted or added. I added some snap beans and chilli flakes too!
All the meals were easy, fast, and relatively healthy. Try them out, maybe they’ll work for you too!
