Veggie Sandwiches

[days_unfolding]

ravengirl said in a comment that she doesn't do elaborate (vegetarian) cooking all the time, which is good to know. I normally eat hot dogs for lunch because they're quick and easy. So I went looking for mushroom sandwiches on the Internet. I found several. Most of them have red or green peppers, which I detest, but I could leave them out. A few included grilled Portobello mushrooms. My grill is in the storage place. I do have a small George Foreman grill. Somewhere. Then I looked for veggie sandwiches in general. The clear winner for lunch is a hummus-and-veggies of-your-choice sandwich. I'd probably do bean sprouts and tomato. I could see doing that. I could REALISTICALLY see doing that. One of the recipes had a make-your-own-hummus component, but I'd rather just buy it.

There's also a salad with spinach, pears, apple, and raisins. That sounds good.

I have a lot of meat-based food that I want to eat down, though, because money.

I ran an experiment at the grocery store to see what frozen veggie meals I could find. I did find some stuff, some of which was pricey, but this is meat-and-potatoes land. Healthy Choice has several vegetarian meals, but WalMart had only one: Spinach and tomato linguine. After I put Parmesan cheese on it, it was quite good. (If I do "go veggie," I'll be lacto- ovo-. I will not live without cheese.) I'll have to see what Kroger has.

I also picked up some stuff for my trip on Friday. I need to crash soon and get up early because I want to empty my suitcase. And I want to download some videos for school onto my netbook, so that I can do homework on the trip back from Chicago.
