Food Review: Celebration Roast
Surrounded by vegetarians and vegans, the arrival of the holidays always leaves me a little perplexed as to what's best to serve them during a festive meal. I don't want to slight them by giving them a bunch of side dishes, but I am not a fan of Tofurky and Now and Zen's Unturkey. My vegetarian and vegan guests will have the pleasure of eating a Celebration Roast this Thanksgiving.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Penne With Mushrooms
Although some people may think all pasta dishes are loaded with carbs and cheese, this recipe proves them wrong. It's chock full of mushrooms and kale, and combines whole wheat pasta with a rich sauce made from hazelnuts. Most grocery stores carry whole wheat pasta these days; you can find it in the regular pasta aisle.
You Won't Miss the Turkey With This Savory Squash Pudding
Planning an almost meatless feast or vegetarian meal this Thanksgiving? If you were fretting about a main course that can compete with the bird as the star of the supper, you can stop worrying; I've found one for you!
I'm not sure if any entrée can ever be all things to all people, but this savory bread pudding is as close as it gets.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Potato and White Bean Chowder
With a little help from the grocery store, you can have a piping hot bowl of healthy and delicious soup on your table in under a half an hour.
This recipe combines potatoes with carrots and white kidney beans. Although it calls for milk, it doesn't require full-fat milk, fat-free is fine.
When Vegetarians Raise Vegetarians
For some, dinner is just a meal. For others, it is a way of life and a testament to their beliefs. Carnivores may not give much thought to the burger on their plate, but vegetarians might.
Good Vegan Recipes/Products?
This story was written by member notinthemood and comes from the Kitchen Goddess group in the YumSugar Community.
I have somewhat recently become totally lactose intolerant — as in, no butter, no cheese, no yogurt, and nothing dairy. I'm totally opposed to relying on drugs to allow me to eat something my body clearly doesn't want to digest, so I've been experimenting with vegan cooking.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Spicy Thai Curried Lentils
If you don't cook with lentils on a regular basis, you should start experimenting with them. The small legumes cook quickly, are filling, and can be served with everything from chorizo to arugula. Not to mention they're supposed to help you lose weight!
Glazed Carrots Two Ways — Beginner and Expert
It isn't a true Thanksgiving meal without loads of sides, scattered around the table like banchan at a Korean barbecue. And one side (other than creamed spinach) that I can't do without is a bowl of candied carrots.
The premise behind glazed carrots couldn't be more basic: you simmer the root vegetables in some form of sweetener (sugar, maple syrup, honey, etc.) until the sauce has thickened and coats the carrots.
Which Vegetarian Food Contains More Protein?
When I dappled in vegetarianism in college, my mom was all over me saying, "How are you going to get enough protein?" Meat isn't the only form of protein out there, so take this quiz to see how much protein you'll find in vegetarian foods.
