These are some foods you can buy that require little to no preparation at all on your part! :) Enjoy!
-Mozzerella pizza rolls (check ingredients for meat content)
-Tofu or Vegan Hamburger patties, microwave with a slice of cheese on top & place in a bun. Use Barbecue sauce for even better "Burger." :P
-Tuna Helper, I eat tuna. :P
-Greenbean casserole, recipe for this is located at the left!
-Velveeta mac&cheese, YUM.
-Mashed Potatoes with garlic flavor, so no meat gravys are required for flavor.
-Ramen Noodles! (Oriental) a quick and sodium-filled meal. Haha.
These are just a few, for the most part mainly all side dishes are vegetarian and pretty healthy.

Lasagna !
This lasagna is not typical, but it's suprisingly delicious!
WHAT YOU'LL NEED:
-one half box of uncooked lasagna
-a large jar/can of pasta sauce such as Prego or Ragu.
-*(1)bag of mozzeralla finely shredded cheese
-*(1/2) bag of Swiss finely shredded cheese
-*(1/4) bar of pepperjack cheese
-salt and pepper
-basil
-oregano
-onion powder
*we used all the white cheese we had, because we never made lasagna before and were filled with curiousity.
DIRECTIONS:
1. Boil the lasagna according to directions on the box. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Use a large cake-pan (we used Pyrex) (make sure that each lasagna can fit in the pan long ways) and put cooking spray on the bottom of the pan.
3. Place a layer of the lasagna at the bottom of the pan.
4. Cover the layer with pasta sauce and sprinkle 1/3 of the mozzerella cheese on top of the pasta.
5. Sprinkle a pinch of each spice over the cheese.
6. Repeat the process of layering, completely using the cheeses in no particular order. (The different cheeses really add a lot of flavors.)
7. Do not cover, place in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes.
8. Remove from oven, let cool openly for approximately 10 minutes, allowing it to set.
9. Enjoy :D Feeds up to 8 people depending on portions.
MY EXPERIENCE:
This was an interesting way to make lasagna, which I've never made before. As for the vast array of cheeses included, we had another bag of mozzerella but used it on a recipe we had made previously this week. All in all I would say that this recipe is wonderful :D

Vegetarian Chili!
*The recipe is located at the left, in the RECIPE COLUMN. If a recipe I'm trying is not there, it will be located here.
This chili was really good, a few recommendations I have is to add MORE spices, I added CREOLE SEASONING SALT, (which I put on everything.) I also think that using an extra can of kidney beans is good. And the second time I tried this, I didn't use any carrots or mushrooms (my dad hates 'em), my chili was less colorful, but still REALLY good. (even better that the first time!) The recipe serves about 4, but I would recommend it for potlucks or parties, jsut multiply the recipes times 2 for 8 people and 3 for 12, etc. etc.
FUN FACT: I didn't know what saute' meant, so I had to google it! I'm such a cooking newbie!
