One popular activity is cooking/baking. As a vegetarian, it is fun to look up fun vegetarian recipes to eat. I decided to share some of my favorite meals to cook during quarantine that are vegetarian.
- Chocolate Banana Protein Smoothie
-
The first recipe that I would 100% recommend is a chocolate banana protein smoothie. The only four ingredients in this smoothie include one scoop of vegan chocolate protein powder, one tablespoon of almond butter, one banana, and a handful of spinach. This smoothie is really good and filling. This smoothie has a lot of protein which is great because people following plant-based diets don’t get protein as easily as people who eat meat.
- Vegetarian Quesadilla
-
Quesadillas are one of my favorite meals. My favorite quesadillas have cheese, corn, and black beans and sour cream. This recipe is not only delicious but really easy to make and only takes 5-10 minutes. Quesadillas really know how to hit the spot!
- Avocado Toast with an Egg
-
Avocado toast is probably my new favorite lunch. The recipe is in the title, all you need is one piece of bread, mashed avocado, and a fried egg. This combo is really great, and you are getting healthy fats from the avocado and the protein you need. This lunch is so great and I can’t wait to make it more throughout quarantine!
- Vegetarian Stir fry
-
One of my favorite dinners to make is vegetarian stir fry. You can put whatever you want into it, but favorite ingredients include one cup of quinoa, Brussel sprouts, peas, corn, vegetarian chicken strips from the Morningstar Farms company, and a little bit of soy sauce. I love this for dinner. It really reminds me of the stir fry line at school and it tastes really great!
I hope you try some of these meal ideas out! I hope you are staying safe during this time of uncertainty!
