Today I'm in a meal prep cooking mood so I'm seeing how many recipes I can prep before the sun sets! I make instant pot 3 bean veggie chili, buffalo cauliflower mac n cheese casserole, copy cat PF chang's chickpea cauliflower lettuce wraps and soft no added sugar peanut butter cookies!

RECIPES: (amounts are sort of approximated)
3 bean veggie chili
1 red bell pepper
1 onion
1 cup carrot shreds
4 oz mushrooms diced small
2 cans black beans drained and rinsed
1 can kidney beans drained and rinsed
1 cup dry red lentils rinsed/ sorted
optional- 1/2 cup textured pea protein
2 tbsp chili powder blend
1/2 tbsp arrbol chili powder or sub pinch of cayenne
2 tsp oregano
1 tsp garlic powder
1 28 oz can crushed tomatoes
3 cups liquid- I did 2 cups water 1 cup veg broth
pinch of salt to taste 1/2 tsp is probably good for most

pressure cook 8 minutes with natural release- about another 20 minutes

buffalo cauliflower mac n cheese
mac sauce-
1 cup raw cashew
1 cup steamed carrots
2 tbsp nutritonal yeast
1 lemon juiced- 2 tbsp
2 heaping tbsp rolled oats
1 cup soy milk
1/4 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup hot sauce- adjust to your taste

Blend up sauce ingredients. Cook pasta according to directions. I used chickpea shells. Steam 1/2 head of cauliflower cut into pieces.Season and bake chicken if using- I’m using meati mushroom “chicken” seasoned with Mrs Dash. A good sub would be roasted oyster mushrooms or more cauliflower.
Mix together cooked pasta, steamed cauliflower, chicken and mac n cheese sauce. stir in hot sauce to your taste. mix well then pour into baking pan. top with shredded cheese and drizzle with more hot sauce. bake @ 350 for 20 minutes til the cheese is melted. If using vegan cheese, you may have to drizzle with more milk to get the cheese to melt.
