Vegeterian Tips: Many upscale food chains have either one or the other, or both salad and soup bars. Salad bars are great for vegetarians, but be careful not to overload on dressings, croutons, nuts, or cheese. Be sure to check with your server about the soups available and that they are bean based, with no meat. If there is nothing else available, salad and soup bars can make a hearty and tasty meal.
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 1 pound elbow macaroni, cooked and drained
- 1 package veggie burger crumbles (Smart Ground brand recommended)
- 1 can tomato sauce
- 1/2 cup soymilk
- 1/2 cup vegan cheddar shreds
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 tablespoon chili powde
- dash of hot sauce
- green onions for garnish
Directions:
Cook the macaroni, drain and set
aside.
In a saute pan over medium heat, mix
together veggie burger crumbles, tomato sauce,
hot sauce and spices. Add soy milk and
veggie shreds, stirring until smooth.
Mix in macaroni, add a little salt and
pepper, top with a handful of chopped
green onions, cook until just
thickened.
Makes a yummy, healthier version of the
old school cheeseburger macaroni!
