Day 1

Breakfast

Tofu scramble
This can be eaten like scrambled eggs. Serves 2.

Fry half an onion (chopped) in a little oil for 3 or 4 minutes and then add 1 clove garlic (minced) and half a green pepper (diced). Continue to fry until the onion is soft. Crumble 250g firm tofu into the pan (use your hands or mash with a fork). Add 1 tsp turmeric and mix. Add 50 ml stock (hot) and cook until the water is absorbed. Season to taste.

Lunch

Wraps

These large circular breads can be filled with houmous and olives, vegan cream cheese and salad leaves, or your choice of sundried tomatoes, alfalfa, cucumber, tomato, small florets of raw broccoli or anything else you choose.

Dinner

Cashew and mushroom pie
Serve with green vegetables such as purple sprouting broccoli or green beans. Serves 4.

Preheat the oven to 180/350/GM 4.

Fry 1 leek (cleaned and sliced), and 1 clove garlic (peeled and crushed) in olive oil for 5 minutes. Transfer to a large saucepan. Use the frying pan to fry 1 kg of mushrooms (wiped and diced) in batches, for 5-7 minutes each batch. Transfer them to the large pan and add 1 tsp chopped thyme. Stir in 300ml of soya cream and 100g cashew nuts. Cook for 7-8 minutes, stirring. Remove from heat and season. Place in a pie dish and cover with ready-rolled puff pastry. Brush the top with a little soya milk and bake for 20-25 minutes.
