Simple Vegetarian and Vegan Brunch Recipes
I could eat brunch for three meals a day! Restaurant menus often have few vegetarian or vegan options, so I made my own repertoire.
Crock Pot Oatmeal
Prep time: 5 min; Total time: 6-9 hours
This is the best oatmeal you will ever eat! Plus, oatmeal lowers your cholesterol.
Deconstructed
Fruit Smoothie
Prep time: 5 min; Total time: 5 min
For those days when you feel too lazy to even bother with the blender. This makes a great
breakfast or a great snack! Use sorbet to turn it into a dessert.
Hawaiian Goddess Smoothie
Prep time: 10 min; Total time: 10 min
While vacationing in Hawaii, I discovered a smoothie so good it defies description
(in English at least. Perhaps there are appropriate words in Hawaiian). Once home, I began
experimenting with tropical fruits in the blender, and voila!
Low Fat Vegan
Apple Cinnamon Muffins
Prep time: 20 min; Total time: 60 min
Try these low fat muffins - they are just sweet enough, with chunks of apples. And, they
are low calorie, vegan, and healthy!
Pina Colada Smoothie
Prep time: 5 min; Total time: 5 min
Sip a refreshing protein-packed pina colada smoothie as breakfast or a snack - or add rum
and enjoy it at a party.
Tropical Fruit Smoothie
Prep time: 5 min; Total time: 5 min
The tropical fruit smoothie is paradise in a glass - but it's low cal so it won't wreck
your bikini body. I always used to love a smoothie made with mangos, pineapple, banana,
and honey or agave nectar. When I added vanilla and cardamom, the whole flavor changed.
Easy Cinnamon Raisin Quinoa
Prep time: 5 min; Total time: 20 min
Quinoa cooks quickly on the stove or in a rice cooker. This simple recipe is delicious, healthy, filling, and vegan.
