Blueberry banana roll up
It's yummy enough, I got the protein to 9grams by adding a tbsp of the pb2 powder as a sauce, but not worth the trouble and too messy to eat moving.

Keeper: Quick Oats Savory Oatmeal
https://www.youtube.com/watch?
Get pan
Add 1/2 cup quick oats, 1 tbsp nutritional yeast, 1/2 can of beans, a large chunk of greens, spices, oils, liquid around a cup total and heat it for a few minutes and boom.
THis time I did black beans, spinach, cumin, red pepper flakes, veggie broth, 1 tsp toasted sesame oil (about 400 calories for a huge filling serving)
It's super fast, it's healthy, its warm and it's filling. It's not delicious the way the other savory oatmeal is, but I feel like there's real potential here because this is so effortless and flexible.
Weird but likeable: nutritional yeast, hemp hearts, a little ghee, spinach, black beans, later topped with tomatoes nad green onions Current version: Add a whole bowl full of spinach, 1 tbsps of hemp hearts, 1 tbsps of nutritional yeast, hald a can of beans (chickpeas but they were dry this time), a rough tbsps of miso paste, 1/2 cups oats, and 1 cup of water to pan, dump on a bunch of curry powder, stir a bunch, add a litle more water as necessary until the spinach is wilted. Add a little rice vinegar and add a little bit of chili oil. Top with fresh grape tomatoes and green onions Didn't have enough beans, added sweet potatoes and used the rolled oats and just took a litle longer, delicious. Another version: Southwestern beans, pickled onions for the vinegar, avocado, brothAir Fryer Lettuce - No Oil!

Keeper: New Stir Fry Sauce
https://kristineskitchenblog.com/stir-fry-sauce/
I used two bags of frozen veggies and a block of tofu and there was plenty of sauce to go around.
INGREDIENTS
- ½ cup low sodium chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
- ⅓ cup low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey - I replaced with 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger -- I used grated fozen
- 3 cloves garlic (minced) -- I used a random spoon of the fridge kind
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- crushed red pepper flakes, sriracha or sweet chili sauce (optional, for spicy sauce)
INSTRUCTIONS
- Combine all ingredients in a jar or bowl. Whisk or shake (with a tight fitting lid on the jar) until fully combined.
- Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- To use stir fry sauce to make stir fry: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok. Add 1 pound of protein (cubed chicken, sliced beef, shrimp, tofu, chickpeas, etc.) and cook until browned and almost cooked through. Transfer the protein to a clean plate. Add 1 more tablespoon of oil and 6 cups of chopped vegetables (broccoli, snow peas, carrots, bell peppers, zucchini, asparagus, etc.) to the pan. Stir fry until crisp-tender. Return your protein to the pan. Add 1 cup of stir fry sauce (this full recipe) and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the sauce has thickened, stirring to evenly distribute the sauce. Serve over cooked rice.

Fresh Rolls - Yummy, Prep is Time Consuming
https://ilovevegan.com/fresh-vegetable-crunchy-rolls-with-sriracha-soy-sauce-tofu/
FRESH VEGETABLE CRUNCHY ROLLS WITH SRIRACHA & SOY SAUCE TOFU
- ½ red pepper, julienned
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- ⅓ -½ long English cucumber, julienned
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced on a diagonal
- small handful of baby spinach, gently bunched up and sliced thinly
- ½-1 full recipe of Baked Sriracha & Soy Sauce Tofu (optional: double the marinade), chilled and cut into thin strips
- sesame seeds
- 6-9 rice papers (I used 22 cm papers)
PEANUT SAUCE:
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) soy sauce (or Bragg's Liquid Aminos - GF)
- 3 tbsp (45 ml) peanut butter
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) sriracha
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) chili garlic sauce (can substitute with 1 more tablespoon sriracha)
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) sesame oil
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) brown sugar (or maple syrup)
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) sesame seeds
- 2-3 tbsp (30-45ml) water to thin
INSTRUCTIONS
FRESH VEGETABLE CRUNCHY ROLLS WITH SRIRACHA & SOY SAUCE TOFU:
- While the tofu is baking you can begin to prepare all of your ingredients. Finely julienne the red pepper, carrot, and cucumber (you can use a julienne peeler for the carrot and cucumber as well) I aim for slices between 4-5 inches long (but this depends on the size of your rice paper, mine are about 8" (20 cm).) Thinly slice the spinach and green onion.
- Once the tofu has finished baking, place it in the fridge to chill. In the meantime you can mix up the Spicy-Sweet Peanut Sauce (recipe below.)
- Cut your chilled tofu into thin strips.
- Prep your area. Find a nice clean space of counter to work on and fill a large bowl or pie plate with HOT water. Grab your sesame seeds and all of your prepped veggies.
Baked Tofu --very easy--made it with the fresh rolls
