No time to cook

Work, exercise, return phone calls (I try), etc., etc. . . it's all of the sudden 7 p.m. and I haven't made anything for dinner.  It's tough eating healthy with variety (no matter what kind of diet you have) when there isn't a lot of time to cook.  

The past few days I've kept a container of field greens in the fridge and ready to go as well as some soup (Pacific Natural Foods Organic Soup is delicious - many vegan varieties and recently on sale at City Market and Vitamin Cottage).  

It's just about crock pot season which will make having a healthy, hearty dinner easier - more recipes to come when it cools off a little more.  Until then, don't sacrifice your last days of after work sunshine over the stove.  Cook a large pot of quinoa or brown rice (my rice cooker was well worth the money) and add some steamed veggies, canned beans and your favorite vegan salad dressing - Drew's is my favorite brand.
