Aubergine with Mushrooms

For this day I tried out some new stuff - my main dish was a mix of fried aubergine and mushrooms on tomato rice (I just cooked the rice in tomato juice, which was nice, but it took much longer than usual). My side dish was this Carrot Slaw from Healthy. Happy. Life: http://kblog.lunchboxbunch.com/2014/06/turmeric-curried-golden-carrot-slaw-11.html
As dessert I made a fruity pudding with orange juice and chia seeds.

My Big Fat Greek Lunch

One of my boyfriend's uncles loves everything Greek, and the other day he gave me a package of delicious pita bread as a gift. I decided to create a thematic lunch around it. So I brought a vegan moussaka (on the right) and two vegan homemade spreads with the bread. I prepared skordalia, a potato dip, and mohamara (made of bell peppers and walnuts), which is actually more Libanese than Greek, but well. I filled the remaining space with raw cauliflower.

Pasta, Lentils and a Bagel

For this lunch I brought one of my standard dishes, pasta with vegan goulash.
The side dish was something new, a Sicilian recipe for lentils with aubergine.
My midmorning snack was a bagel with coleslaw, I used this recipe for the slaw:

Fried Bread and Aubergine

This picture might need a bit of an explanation. Below we have little skewers with pototoes etc. for my midmorning snack. I combined the rest of the ingredients for lunch - we have fried bread, fried aubergine (transported separately so the bread would'nt get soggy) and vegan tzatziki in a separate container. Mix everything together and - yummy!

Cabbage with peanut sauce and mashed potatoes

This lunch contained cabbage with peanut sauce and mashed potatoes and a handful of grapes as dessert. My midmorning snack were ricepaper rolls filled with this wonderful salad from Poor Girl eats well:

Delicious, one of my all-time favourites!
I separated the sticky rolls with pieces of carrot.

Curried Aubergine

I'm more or less into two weeks' worth of photos for this blog, and I'm already running out of ideas for new midmorning snacks. Sigh. So today I brought a very unhealthy piece of milk chocolate.
The recipe for the main dish comes from Majzlik's A vegan taste of East Africa, it's the Curried aubergine with kidney beans. I combined it with bulgur and caramelized mini onions.
