Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:25:00 -0500

I bought Hubert Keller's Burger Bar cookbook and decided to skip right by the fattening yet delicious beef burger recipes and try a garden variety. I made a few slight adjustments to accommodate my own tastes and dietary restrictions. These were so tasty; I didn't even miss the moo. -- posted by Diet It Up

Roasted Tomato Sauce

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:32:59 -0500

This is inspired by Janet and Greta's roasted tomatoe sauce they used on their canneloni show but I didn't have some of the ingredients they used so I improvised it. One pound of my tomatoes were heirloom tomatoes in various colors just cause I happened to have them on hand. The chicken broth was made from roasted chicken bones to give it a deeper flavor as well. -- posted by Ladymedic

Parmesan Polenta With Eggs and Roasted Mushrooms

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 18:35:13 -0500

Enough for three as a main course. I served this with a tossed salad and bread. Makes for an easy weeknight meal except for the minor annoyance of having to use three dishes to prepare this. If you want, skip the salad and serve the mixture over raw or lightly wilted greens. From thekitchn.com -- posted by Cookgirl

Potato, Turnip, and Spinach Baeckeoffe

Wed, 13 Jan 2010 18:46:11 -0500

This is a vegetarian entree from Cooking Light Magazine. Translated from the Germanic Alsatian dialect, baeckeoffe means "baker's oven," as it was traditionally a dish that was brought to the local baker to cook in his oven. It's rich, warm and delicious comfort food! It is a bit time consuming so it's best to make on the weekend when you have a bit more time. I'm printing the recipe as is from my magazine, however to save time I used two separate pans at the same time so that I could get the carmelizing of the onions while reducing down the mushrooms. -- posted by Cheri in Glen Ellen, CA

Garlic Cream Cheese Portabella Sandwich

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 12:12:04 -0500

I got this idea from Culpeppers, a St. Louis restaurant. They have a garlic cream cheese spread that they use on their signature burger, which is delicious, but very fatty. They also used to have a portabello burger, but they have since taken it off the menu. -- posted by Chef #1520721

Cajun Tofu

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 12:12:49 -0500

This was inspired by a recent trip to New Orleans. I wanted something vegetarian, but with Cajun taste & this is what I came up with. It's easy enough for a weeknight dinner, but tastes like you've been cooking a while. You can serve it over rice, pasta or, if you want to be really southern, grits. -- posted by Jeri Roth Lande

Mushroom Cakes W/Avocado Pesto and Red Pepper Coulis

Thu, 14 Jan 2010 19:52:30 -0500

These vegetarian friendly cakes are served with an addictive nontraditional pesto that gets its creaminess, and lovely light green color from avocados; complete the meal with a salad of sliced tomatoes and onions and a nice bottle of rosé.This comes from Cuvée World Bistro in Tucson, AZ. There they make it with the wild mushrooms, as I posted but because of personal preference here at the home we have only gone as far the cremini's! Need I say more? Oops, I almost forgot - this was in Bon Appetit, January 2010. -- posted by Manami

Lemon Sauce With Navy Beans and Pasta

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 00:04:42 -0500

An incredibly easy vegan recipe with many options. It is a combination of carrots, navy beans and mushrooms served with a savory lemon sauce over the pasta of your choice. Sprinkle with Sesame Seeds and Flax Seeds for additional nutrients. Note: I used Smart Balance Vegan Butter which works wonderfully in all recipes requiring butter. I also recommend using a vegetable broth containing no MSG. -- posted by Where's Mine?

Kadhi Pakora / Pakoras

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 02:25:06 -0500

At the local Indian market, they have a small, vegetarian "cafeteria-style" lunch/dinner counter that we go to as often as we're able. One of my favorite dishes there is a yogurt curry with pakoras swimming in it. Pakoras are a snack made with, in this case, veggies dredged in a chickpea (besan) flour batter and then deep fried. I've been on the hunt for a good kadhi pakora recipe and found this keeper. Just don't use thick, Greek style yogurt like I did; you want more of a soupy consistency rather than what my photo shows. You can vary the veggies you use here. Try onion strips, spinach and even paneer, Indian cheese. Adapted from a recipe at http://www.indianfoodsite.com/. Enjoy! -- posted by Sandi (From CA)

Delicious Baked Tofu- With a Kick

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 13:51:05 -0500

I made this after playing around with many of the other baked tofu recipes I saw here and adding things from my pantry. I've listed a LOT of ingredients, but feel free to alter/omit/add items. As long as its liquidy enough to coat the tofu, anything goes! The reigning flavor in this dish is from the soy sauce, but the "secret" ingredients- milk and coffee- add a wonderful depth of flavor. Measurements are approximate, prep time includes marination. -- posted by Chef #1522332

Spaghetti Sauce

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 13:57:03 -0500

Slow Cooker Garbanzo Bean and Potato Soup With Pesto

Sun, 24 Jan 2010 18:47:04 -0500

For extra nutrition, leave potatoes unpeeled. To boost nutritional value further, add 2 cups chopped kale (chard, baby spinach, baby beet greens, etc.) to the slow cooker *just*before serving -about ten-fifteen minutes. Kidney beans can replace garbanzo beans if you prefer and for additional color. A sun-dried tomato pesto would be an interesting change in place of traditional pesto.

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 11:03:10 -0500

BBQ Flavored Seitan

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 12:57:54 -0500

I wanted to make more a BBQ type seitan after the success of my spicy seitan, so I made a few modifications to my original recipe and came up with this. I also made BBQ sauce for the first time and it turned out pretty good. Unfortunately I didn't really keep track of measurements, so I won't be posting that recipe right away. Also, if you're making this on a large scale (the first time I made this I actually octupled the recipe) you're probably going to need to add more of the liquid ingredients (maybe 1 to 2 cups more of the mixture). You want the seitan to feel similar to a wet sponge. Just like with my other seitan, how long you cook it will effect how hard or soft it is. Personally, I like this kind to be sort of like lunch meat, so I've included the times for making it a nice, soild, meat substitute. If you think you've over cooked it (it gets really browned), don't worry. Let it cool and bake it or fry it up later. The "skin" will soften when it's reheated. -- posted by Raven D

Butternut Squash and Duxelles Casserole

Mon, 25 Jan 2010 13:06:44 -0500

Vegetarian Stuffed Cabbage (Ww)

Tue, 26 Jan 2010 08:31:14 -0500

My ds loved this and even packed the leftovers in tupperware so his girlfriend could have some! Never asked about the "meat"! If following WW this is only 5 WW pts for 2 cabbage rolls. When I made this I miscalculated the time, so I put in the fridge and the next day added 1 can tomatoes w/green chilies and some leftover WW cheese and cooked for 30 minutes or so. Although delicious this is a time consuming recipe -- the original recipe says 2 1/ 2 hours but I took 3 hours to make this plus the another 1/2 hour to reheat the next day --- so be prepared!

In a pathetic attempt to make eggplant parmigiana, I created this instead. It's very easy and uses basic ingredients that are probably already in your kitchen. I've made it about a dozen times in the past few months and my husband loves it. It's a very flexible recipe and I've tried it a few different ways already and it always tastes great and surprisingly like pizza. Goes well with any pasta dish or risotto. -- posted by California Girl in Brazil

Vegetable Pot Pie

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 12:04:18 -0500

I made up this recipe after hearing some women in a coffee shop talking about chicken pot pie. I love savory pies but I'm vegetarian so I devised this meatless version which I think is just as good. The choice of vegetables can be changed quite a bit based on what you have on hand. I think adding some frozen peas would be good for example. Anyway, enjoy! -- posted by Chef #1483869

I found this recipe on veganyumyum.com and here is her description: "When its summer, I cant get enough of recipes that use up fresh tomatoes and basil. But no matter what time of year, Im always down with quick recipes. You can make this sauce in the time it takes to boil the pasta. My whole wheat pasta cooks in 9 minutes, so this simple sauce makes a 9 minute summer meal thats hard to beat." -- posted by SPrins

Mecklenburger Lentil Stew

Fri, 05 Feb 2010 09:41:42 -0500

This is a recipe from Northern Germany. If you have ever wondered what to do with those big german hot dog things called Bockwurst... here is an idea! This Stew is vegetarian until the Bockwurst is added, which is right at the end, so it is a great one for pleasing everyone! -- posted by Jana Steinhagen

Spicy Easy Corn Casserole (Without Egg!)

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 12:16:22 -0500

Needed to clear some cans out of my storage space. The result? A ridiculously simple casserole packed with flavor. Feel free to use your own spice mix or taco seasoning, I use Recipe #389616. Something like Green Giant Mexi-Corn would probably work nice in this but I worked with I had at hand. -- posted by the80srule

Healthy Black Bean Enchiladas

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 12:20:45 -0500

I always loved enchiladas and played around with this to make it healthy. It's super yummy and very versatile - you can mix it up to your taste. You can make it a day or two in advance and then just pop it in the oven, so it's become my favorite dish to make for new parents. One time saver is you can just substitute a box of mexican-style rice for the rice and seasonings - it will still be great. You can also add more or less cheese to taste. -- posted by Chef #1439823

Emily's Easy Cheesy Vegetable Soup

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 14:41:09 -0500

My friend, Emily, shared this recipe with me at my bridal shower. Its a quick, easy, tasty meal for cold winter days. I like preparing it in a crock-pot instead of on the stove to avoid burning the cheese. Emily also told me that while any mixed veggies will do, Veg-All is her favorite and I agree! I use low sodium cream of chicken soup, since left-overs tend to get salty in the fridge over time. -- posted by Chef #1067801
