I love this! I hope others share more but I like to try and eat vegan as much as I can and also healthy! I came across this site a few years ago and have gotten SO MANY recipes off it. They're all delicious and easy to make, even for someone who hates to cook like me. Check it out - her recipies are free and she also has a youtube channel :)https://www.pickuplimes.com/blog/category/Meals

My go to meal is for my husband, to take stress off me! Usually scrambled eggs or cheese omelet and toast are good for him when I don't have time to prepare, cook , or when I don't feel well.

I've learned to be creative at restaurants.
Omelets with no toast or potatoes, but a side of veggies, maybe coleslaw. I'll go to Italian restaurants and ask them for a pizza ... without the pizza. I eat vegetarian, so I ask them to make a baked casserole of mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach, onions, black olives, maybe green peppers, and make it nice and cheesy. They'll make it for me, typically charging $8 - $10. A sandwich, like a veggie burger (or hamburger) without the bun. And a salad with tuna on top works fine also.
I also make a simple soup at home, my kind of recipe. Two cups of broth, a can of chopped tomatoes, a can of mixed veggies, heat to a boil and it's ready. Lately I've added 4 - 6 tablespoons of salsa to deepen the tomato flavor. It's great cold too, when I add hot sauce. I've added cheese or shrimp to that at times.

Hi everyone!
It's been a while since I've been on here. I was inspired by a post I read on here that broke down the best vegetables for someone living with type 2 diabetes and I was wondering, what are some of your favorite dinner recipes? Also, what are your favorite recipes on a budget/in a hurry for lunch?
I want to try some new things for my fiance!
Excited to read what you all share! Thanks in advance and have a wonderful evening!
