Green Day

[littlesummer]

Hi,

I've being doing SW now for roughly 7 weeks and I'm struggling to think of new ideas for lunch, I've been sticking with green days. Has anyone got any nice ideas/recipes please.

I make a roasted veg & pasta bake in big bulk at the start of the week and freeze in tupperwear so I can take one a day and re-heat in the microwave - does the trick for me:

Roast lots of chunky vegetables (red peppers, red onion, courgette, aubergine) with some garlic and fry light.
Make a sauce with tinned tomatoes, passata, a sprinkle of chilli powder.
Cook the pasta and mixed everything together.

Free on a green day and delicious!

There are so many things you can make. Lentils are a great sub for meat in chilli, curry or bolognese type dishes.

There are a few green day recipes on my http://www.slimmingeats.com/blog/category/green and ones that are not can easily be substituted for something green day friendly.

Do you like quorn, it's fab for green days. You could make a quorn chilli (onions, peppers, mushrooms, kidney beans, tin of chopped toms, vege oxo cube, salt, pepper, chilli powder to taste and quorn mince....in a jacket [potato or on rice, free on a green day).
Mushroom omlette.
Homemade tomato pepper and pasta soup.
