Pita Pocket of Perfection

Pita Pocket of Perfection

Ingredients:
1 whole wheat pita
1/2 an avocado
1/2 a tomato
1/2 cup spinach
1/2 cup alfalfa sprouts

Add mustard, garlic salt, & pepper to taste.


No directions necessary. This is another easy healthy vegetarian recipe, especially for all the starving college students out there. Take a break from your normal sandwich and give this Pita Pocket of Perfection a try instead! The whole wheat pita tastes fabulous if you warm it up on the stove first. Plus, this pita sandwich packs several veggies in one serving. Spinach is low in calorie and nutrient-dense, including vitamins A and K, fiber, folate, and magnesium.  Normally, I despise tomatoes, but I added a few pieces to mine because I know how good they are for me. I could barely taste it because the amazing avocado invaded my taste buds. Avocados have nearly 20 essential nutrients. Seriously, just add an extra vegetable to your meal and you'll supply yourself with that many more of your daily nutrients. Try it out this healthy vegetarian recipe as soon as possible! Bon Appétit!

Starving college student recipe

If you're anything like me, you're a very busy bee. You don't have an extra hour to cook a nice meal for yourself, nor do you have the money to purchase an abundance of fancy ingredients and products. You go to school several days a week to broaden your knowledge. You labor for hours on end to earn your dollars. In addition, you have a social life you try your best to maintain. 

Life is busy, but that doesn't mean you have to eat poorly! You want an easy and healthy vegetarian recipe, because you don't want to slave away for an hour in the kitchen. I've come up with a really quick, simple, and healthy recipe for you to enjoy. Always keep in mind that health is in our hands. Since experimenting with veganism, I've been eating noticeably more natural foods. I haven't used the microwave in a couple of weeks. I make everything fresh. And I love it! I feel great.

I was inspired by the items in my refrigerator for this healthy vegetarian recipe. It's fast and boy, is it scrumptious. Try it out!

Soyrizo Surprize
Ingredients:
  1/2 package of Trader Joe's Soy Chorizo
1/2 of a green bell pepper
1 cup spinach
1/2 cup shredded carrots 
1/2 cup mushroom

  1. Add soyrizo to a hot pan.
  2. Add everything else.
  3. Mix around.
  4.  Cook for 5-7 minutes on medium heat.
It's literally that easy. The soyrizo has an amazing, slightly spicy taste. It's ideal for any healthy vegetarian recipe, especially breakfast. The veggies add flavor, texture, and vibrant color. The ingredients are fresh. It's something different. You can leave out any vegetable. You can add any vegetable. You can add anything, really. Or you can leave it as is!

This healthy vegetarian recipe takes under 15 minutes to prepare and cook. That's pretty time-friendly for a person who's always on the go.  I make Soyrizo Surprize during my 2-hour long break between classes; then I make tea with my roommate and we watch something quick on Netflix. This recipe is quick, so you can have time for what's truly important in life. It's simple.

Reviews:
"That smells good." -my roommate's friend
"Not only is it so bright and colorful, the spiciness it what really makes it special." -my roommate

Bon appétit!
