Kitchen Sink Dinner Fun

30 Apr

A few things I always have on my shelf are: cans of beans, tomato sauce and dry quinoa. So when I’m too lazy to fill an empty fridge I can always rely on these to have a meal on hand.

Kitchen Sink Dinner Fun

  • 1 can of chickpeas (or other beans)
  • 1 c mushrooms
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1/2 c tomato sauce
  • 1 T nutritional yeast
  • 1 T ground flax
  • 1 t salt
  • 1 t sriracha (optional)
  • 2 T feta/daiya (optional)
  • 1.5 c precooked quinoa (optional)
  1. Saute mushrooms and onions on a coated pan for around 5 minutes
  2. Add chickpeas, nooch, flax and salt
  3. Once chickpeas are heated add the tomato sauce and feta or daiya
  4. Remove from heat and combine with quinoa if you want a more stick-to-your-bones meal

Serve as is, on a bed of lettuce, or atop pasta. It makes great leftovers hot or cold!

other ideas for additions: meat crumbles, tempeh, rice, raisins, other veggies on hand
