Hey guys! So today I decided that I would share with you some of my favourite vegetarian lunches. Lots of which can easily be a vegan lunch for any vegans reading :-)
Sandwiches
Ok so I love, love, loooveee vegetable sandwiches and here are some of my favourites.
Tomato and Cucumber Sandwich:
This is super simple and really good. All that you do is put some butter on bread with some lettuce or spinach, tomato and cucumber and a piece of cheese. And this can easily be a vegan sandwich without the butter and cheese; or you could use soy cheese if you would like!
Peanut Butter and Jam Sandwich:
So simple, so obvious and so good. I love having a peanut butter and jam sandwich every once in a while but they are especially good if I am in a rush in the morning and don't have time to make anything fancy.
Tomato and Cheese Sandwich:
This is another really easy sandwich all you have to do is put a slice of tomato and cheese onto some buttered bread and, bam! There's your sandwich.
Salads
Garden Salad:
This is so good and so simple; you can literally make a garden salad with any veggies that you have in your fridge. I love to use a mixture of spinach and lettuce with cucumbers, carrots and peppers. And if you want to add some protein you can top it off with some boiled eggs or nuts like almonds or cashews.
Pasta Salad:
I usually just use spiral noodles and top them off with some carrots, peppers and salad dressing.
So there are some super easy to make vegetarian lunches, I hope you enjoyed this post! And it would be awesome if you could share it on any social media that you use, thanks! :-)

DIY: Frozen Yogurt Treats
Hey guys! So since I didn't post last week (cringe) I decided that I would do two posts this week! One today and one on Wednesday. I wasn't sure what to do my first post of the week on and then while I was making some frozen yogurt treats I realized that would be a great idea for a post! So I'm going to be showing you how to make frozen yogurt dots and frozen yogurt bark. Let's get started! :-)
I used a 650g container of yogurt and that was enough to make both of these!
Frozen Yogurt Dots
Ingredients/Materials:
Step 1:
Take your plastic bag (your going to need to use a sandwich bag) and make a small diagonal cut on one of the corners. You are going to use this bag like a baker would to ice a cake. Then fill the bag with 2-3 spoonfuls of yogurt. I used strawberry banana yogurt and let me tell you; it is delicious.
Step 2:
Begin putting drops of yogurt onto the cookie sheet simply by squeezing the bag. Once the cookie sheet is full of yogurt dots put the cookie sheet into the freezer and leave it there for as long as you like. My yogurt dots were frozen after a half hour but you can leave them in there for as long as you like. :-) This is what they look like once they come out of the freezer.
Frozen Yogurt Bark
Ingredients/Materials:
Line your pan with parchment paper so that it will be easy for you to cut the bark and remove it once it is frozen without wrecking your pan.
Step 2:
Pour some yogurt onto the bottom of the pan and spread it evenly across. Only put enough yogurt down to cover the parchment paper. Next add some diced strawberries and grapes to the yogurt as well as whole almonds. Add enough so that it is spread somewhat evenly across the yogurt like this:

Frozen Yogurt Bark
Ingredients/Materials:
- Yogurt
- Almonds
- Strawberries
- Grapes
- Parchment Paper
- Cake Pan
Line your pan with parchment paper so that it will be easy for you to cut the bark and remove it once it is frozen without wrecking your pan.

Pour some yogurt onto the bottom of the pan and spread it evenly across. Only put enough yogurt down to cover the parchment paper. Next add some diced strawberries and grapes to the yogurt as well as whole almonds. Add enough so that it is spread somewhat evenly across the yogurt like this:
Then add some more yogurt to the top to cover all of the fruit and almonds. Add more fruit and almonds and then one more layer of yogurt. It should now look like this:
Step 3:
Put this in the freezer for about an hour and a half if you want it to be frozen very well. You can also leave it in the freezer for longer if you prefer. Then cut it however big you would like and enjoy!!! :-)
I hope you guys enjoy this post and the yummy yogurt treats. These are really great for days that you have a sweet tooth but don't want to eat junk food since they are so sweet but they're also great for you! I really like to have these as a post-workout snack as well because it helps cool you down but you also get some protein! So stay tuned for a post coming to you Wednesday and if you could share this on any social media that you use that would be great, thanks! :-)
