Vegans? Vegetarians?

I made this meatloaf for Christmas and it was so good. And rather than put a maple glaze on it, I made gravy. Both came out so good with great flavor.

I used chickpea flour instead of white. And there were no mushrooms. Yay.

Pear & Hazelnut Salad w/Champagne Vinaigrette salad ..do try it

2Tbsps Champagne Vinegar
1 shallot, minced finely
1tsp Dijon mustard
1/4 c Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1Tbsp fresh Italian Parsley, finely chopped
Sea Salt & (freshly) ground black pepper
3 c Frisee(root trimmed and leaves pulled apart) or a wonderful Organic Spring Mix
3 c Baby Arugula (use this if you decide on the Frisee)
2 Pears(Ripe)cored peeled and cut into cubes
1Tbsp Lemon juice
1/2 cup Hazelnuts, toasted roughly chopped

To make Vinaigrette: In a jar, add vinegar, minced shallots and mustard. Cover and shake well. Add Olive oil. Shake well til well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and stir in chopped parley. Set aside.

*Peel*, core, & chop Pears and add 1Tbsp lemon juice. Set aside in small bowl. Cover

To assemble salad: Place the frisee and arugula (or Spring Mix) into serving bowl and toss. Drizzle with enough vinaigrette to coat greans, lightly. Add Pears. Toss gently. (Do not saturate the greens with dressing!)

To serve: Divide the dressed salad between 4 chilled serving plates and sprinkle with chopped hazelnuts and serve immediately.

note: * * Peeling Pear is optional-I love it natural. I've also tried this salad with a Raspberry Vinaigrette and loved it too.

Every Sunday I meal prep for the week. It's usually at night since I am out but today, for the first time in a while, I had nothing planned. Yay. I absolutely abhor having to cook when I get home during the week. Absolutely hate it. It's the last friggin thing I want to do. So, meal prep it is. I am going to post some really great recipes that I have found.

This first one is going to sound really weird, but it is soooo good. If you hate dill, skip this.

I used homemade hummus in the recipe below instead of the vegan ricotta.

I will admit, I did something I swore I would never do. I pulled the little covering off the chickpeas. It makes a huge difference. Hint: rub them dry with papertowels, it helps!

This vegan parm cheese is the absolute best thing I have ever tasted. I can put it on anything.

https://www.fooduzzi.com/2018/01/veg...sted-broccoli/

Instead of quinoa (I hate quinoa) I used farro for this one.

The avocado dressing for this recipe is amazing. I love creamy dressings but have not found any vegan versions to make that weren't runny. This changed that.

I made a couple of new ones today, so if they work out, I will post later.
