Man Food

Here's a quick, man- and omni-friendly recipe that has no vegetables and isn't very healthy. Ha! You don't see many of those on my blog! We made this as a quick lunch while at my dad's house. Mac 'n Sausage 1) Boil pasta. 2) Cut up vegan Italian sausages, brown in pan. 3) Add jar of tomato sauce, heat. 4) Add macaroni to sauce and sausages. 5) Cover with daiya. 6) Get yourself a salad, too.

Boil green beans for about five minutes until cooked but not mushy. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop cooking. Mix dressing with a fork and add water until consistency is as desired. Mix with green beans and serve! Notes: I ran out of lemon juice but I think hat would be a good addition. Agave would also taste great instead of maple syrup. And, as always, my measurements are total guesses. Just add as much of every ingredient until it tastes good. For the meatloaf, I bought a pre-made...
