fast food for busy peeps was: HEllo all

[Guest guest]

I have been getting creative with food lately. I just

can't seem to find the energy to do a lot of cooking

when I am at school until 8 or 9 pm.

I usually buy the near east and seeds of change boxed

rices for quick meals, but usually need some sort of

veggie with it. Well the other day I simply sauteed

some spinach, carrots and mushrooms then dumped it on

top of a tomato lentil couscous and it was SO GOOD!!!

I also do similar things with the Thai Kitchen thingsy

(kinda like Ramen) and add frozen endame, broccoli,

spinach and carrots (sometimes mushrooms) when I pour

over the boiling water. It's very very yummy. And the

soup is good for those icky days I get into when I am

super busy like this. It's soothing.

I also always fall back on some simple greens with

some potatos and carrots. Yummy. Tonight was the ol'

Kale and potatos (took a lot of effort to chop the

potatos though)

I also like to mix the box rices with some of my soups

I make...like the three sisters stew from Sept 2004 VT

with some long grain and wild rice or some lentil soup

with tuscan style rice or the french herb quinoa.

I also eat a lot of tofu scramble with mushrooms and

spinach added. Quck, easy and you can get the

mushrooms already chopped so there is like zero effort
