Answer
I call this my super, extra, wholesome carrot loaf recipe:
2 tablespoons water or broth, for steam-frying
1 onion, diced
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 large wholesome carrot, peeled and grated
2 celery ribs, diced
1 cup mushroom, cleaned and chopped
2 cups veggie burgers or veggie crumbles
1 cup uncooked quick oatmeal or oat bran
1/4-1/2 cup vegetable broth, as needed
1/2 cup cooked oatmeal
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3 dashes vegetarian worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
Directions
1Preheat the oven to 350º. Spray a loaf pan or 8x8 square baking pan with nonstick spray and set aside (an 8x8 pan makes a crisper loaf).
2Grind the into a coarse meal using a food processor or spice/coffee grinder. Place in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
3Sauté any vegetables you've chosen in the water or broth for steam-frying until soft. Add to the large mixing bowl along with all the remaining ingredients. Mix and mash together well, adding only as much liquid as needed to create a soft, moist loaf that holds together and is not runny (you may not need to add any liquid if the grains and protein are very moist). Add more binder/carbohydrate as needed if the loaf seems too wet.
4Press mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until cooked through.
5Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes, then turn out onto a plate or platter and slice. Serve with potatoes, vegetables, and vegetarian gravy, if desired.

Answer
Get some baby carrots. You could also slice some cucumber, cut bell peppers into strips, get some grape tomatoes, and dip them in ranch dressing or hummus.
Baby carrots + cucumber + bell peppers + grape tomatoes + ranch dressing

Nachos are also a great snack but be sure to use some vegetarian cheese.

Tofu Special K Meatloaf
2 16-oz. packages of tofu - mashed.
6 packages George Washington Broth or MBT vegetable broth
1 stick melted margarine
1 cup walnuts, chopped
12 oz box of Special K cereal
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl, adding cereal last, and spread in 13"X9"X2" baking pan slightly sprayed with Pam. Mixture will be quite thick.
Bake at 350 for one hour.
________________________________________________________________________
canned canneloni or other white beans, undrained
a veggie seasoning cube
frozen broccoli and cauliflower mix
dry pasta
nonstick spray
water
Spray the bottom of a deep saute pan, then layer the ingredients with the pasta on the bottom, the beans next, the veggies, then the veggie cube crumbled over the top. Add some water so that the pasta doesn't boil dry in the bottom. Cook it on medium or medium-high until the pasta is done. Sometimes you have to add a little water to keep the pasta cooking.

Soymilk, cooked oatmeal,half a banana and peanuts altogether. freeze it overnight or blend with ice.
