I have recently turned vegetarian. I'm not sure what to eat and my parents are annoyed with me because i don't get enough protein.

What are simple meals that are healthy and that i can do everyday and still get full nutrition?

Answer
Food, silly.

Fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains, and beans--that covers quite a bit of ground, wouldn't you say?

As for protein, even vegans get more protein than they really need. You don't want too much protein because it strips calcium from your bones (animal protein is especially acidic, causing calcium loss) and taxes your kidneys.

If you're parents think you aren't getting enough protein there are three possible reasons: 1) they've fallen for the protein myth like most people; 2) you don't get enough calories; or 3) you eat mostly junk food.

Some simple meals: A bean and rice burrito with salsa or grilled veggies.

Pasta witih marinara sauce. If you saute some kale/collards/greens and pour the marinara over it, it's really healthy.

A stir fry with cubed tofu or tempeh instead of meat. Many grocery stores also carry vegetarian meal-starter strips that are designed for stir-fries or fajitas. Lightlife makes "beef" and "chicken" varieties.

A veggie burger with oven-baked fries.

If you like meatloaf, you can make veggie versions. Google Vegetarian Loaf Studio, and there's a website where you can customize your own veggie loaf.

www.vegweb.com has tons of recipes.

VEGAN food? anyone? :)?

Cassie

hi, just wondering if you vegans would like to suggest some good vegan food to me, that are nutritous and maybe have calcium, iron, and/or protein in it. I started to be vegan for like 3-4ish weeks and dont have many recipes. (also is there any good replacements that you have tried...cause i am never going to eat a sad,dead,animal?) :(
thank you.

Answer
Lots of foods have protein or amino acids in them. Getting enough protein should not be an issue if you eat a well balanced diet. Protein rich foods include legumes (beans & lentils), nuts, seeds, tempeh (a soy product). You can see some basic protein info at http://www.vegsoc.org/info/protein.html

Calcium shouldn't be a concern either if you are eating healthy and well balanced. Greens, broccoli, and soy products (though you should avoid most un-fermented soy products like tofu, soy beans, and soy milk) are high in calcium.

Iron is a bit more difficult to obtain in a vegan diet, but still not a huge problem. For a couple articles about iron you can see http://www.groovyvegetarian.com/2008/08/23/iron-rich-foods-for-vegetarians/ and http://www.vegfamily.com/health/boost-iron-intake.htm

Vegan recipes can be found at numerous places online including:

http://vegweb.com/

http://allrecipes.com/Recipes/Everyday-Cooking/Vegetarian/Main.aspx

http://vegkitchen.com/index.htm

http://www.101cookbooks.com/vegan_recipes/

http://www.recipestar.com/recipes

http://www.recipezaar.com/recipes.php?categ=169%2C141%2C12%2C299

You can also modify many of your favorite recipes by eliminating the meat. Not all recipes can be modified (eg, meatloaf) but many such as pastas, salads, stir-fries, casseroles can be made vegan by leaving out the meat and adding additional vegetables or even meat substitutes.

I am already a vegetarian. I am, the only one in my family. I am 14

I want to become vegan but still be healthy. The rest of my family are big meat eaters. Can you give me some simple recipes and some advice on being vegan?

Also, do you know anything about the Hallelujah Diet?
Actually, vegan is one of the most healthiest diets. It cuts down on bone problems and cancer. Also, obesity, diabetes, and other serious illnesses.

Answer
Hi, great choice to become a vegan. I totally understand what you are going through.

I am also a teen and have been a vegan for almost four years now. I am still the only one in the whole entire family of 50+ meat lovers, so as you can imagine I had to be extremely focused, determined and self motivated to pull it off. I remember my first days as a vegan asking around on-line and I never got any satisfactory answers, so I had to learn it the hard way. Through that experience I decided to help others and share my knowledge with you.
FYI WITH THE FOLLOWING RECIPIES YOU WILL GET ALL THE VITAMINS YOU NEED. HOWEVER YOU MIGHT WANT TO TAKE SOME VITAMINS AND PROTIEN POWDER ON THE SIDE! Don’t forget to regularly see the doctor.

The Hallelujah Diet is being used by hundreds and thousands of people around the world to accomplish what our present day medical system cannot. People are getting well from a wide array of disorders. In fact the Hallelujah Diet has been so successful that is was recently adopted by the successful Oasis of Hope hospital. Why? You've probably heard the saying "God chose the simple things to confound the wise". You can't get any simpler than the Hallelujah Diet. God didn't create our bodies to run on drugs or artificial, over processed and over cooked foods. Look at what God created us to eat, feed it to your body for several months, get a little exercise and you will be amazed at the difference. It is time to stop fighting the symptoms and change what we eat! There recently was a news report on TV on a large study that proved that folks in the 60's and older benefit more from fresh fruits and vegetables than they do from vitamins. Amazing, perhaps they'll prove that God was right after all....

I think that being vegan is quite similar to this diet in that you are leading a healthy lifestyle.

Have you ever been to a vegetarian potluck?

best vegetarian meatloaf recipe ever
on Best-Ever Meatloaf |

best vegetarian meatloaf recipe ever image

Daughter o

Did you just love it? Was it at an SDA church?

Yes, I've been to an Adventist potluck and they are almost always with very very few exception vegetarian! SDA ladies know how to cook really good! Yes, I love vegetarian potlucks! Although I am not a vegetarian, I sure love vegetarian potlucks over the ones that serve meat!

Answer
I am an SDA also and have enjoyed / cooked for many vegetarian potlucks. Unlike traditional potlucks and family reunions where fried chicken, sloppy joes and meatloaf are the staples. I know there are many veggie cooks that use meat substitutes but I don't recall seeing many at our potlucks. However, the one exception is Special K loaf with carmelized onion gravy - yum yum.

One of the ladies makes the absolute best stuffed shells with tofu, fresh chopped spinach and homemade tomato sauce. Most of the ladies at my church are excellent cooks and I always look forward to the next potluck. It also gives me an excuse to try new recipes.

Does anyone have a recipe for vegetarian "meatballs"?

Molly

My mom has this recipe for AWESOME meatballs and sauce. I recently stopped eating meat, but I do really miss that dish! It's even been christened "Molly Meatballs" after me, LOL. :)

So I was wondering, is there a recipe for "veg-balls" or something? (I was figuring I would just use the same sauce to coat them like in the original recipe.)

Thanks!

Answer
http://www.recipezaar.com/Vegetarian-meatballs-11028

Read the reviews for pointers. Here's what one reviewer said:

This is easily the best meat substitute recipe I've found. I altered the recipe a bit to make it more like an actual meatball recipe. The most helpful thing you can do is to grind up the walnuts in a food processor. Otherwise, your meatballs have a little too much crunch in them to pass for meat. Once you do that, take out a 1/4 cup of the cheddar cheese, and replace it with parmesan cheese. It also helps to add basil, oregano, parsley, garlic, and a little salt and pepper. Make you sure you keep turning the meatballs every few minutes as you brown them in the oven, or they will burn. Then, when finished browning, instead of pouring vegetable broth over them, throw them right into your pot of pasta sauce to finish cooking. These will look and taste like real meatballs. I've already had three meat-eaters tell me they could not tell the difference!! Highly recommended.

So many glowing reviews and so many people saying they couldn't tell the difference between this and meatballs.

Here's another:
Update: I have since made these for potluck dinners and NO ONE believes me when I tell them that they have no beef in them. My brother in law is a meat and potatoes kind of guy and declared to my sister that they were "the best meatballs he had ever had!" I decided to experiment a little and tried the mixture in a meatloaf...very tasty. My next experiment is to see if it can replace ground meat in tacos or chili

Wow!! I can't wait to try them myself!!

I am transitioning my family to a more vegetarian diet and without meat as a centerpiece of dinner, I'm a little stumped. I can do the one pot stuff, and we love it, but how do you do everyday meal planning?

Answer
Vegetable Lasagna and salad (Cut leftovers into individual portion sizes and freeze for another meal). I like to use roasted vegetables like butternut squash, mushrooms, tomatoes and eggplant, layered with the lasagna noodles and a mixture of ricotta, mozzarella and parmagiano cheese. We are not vegetarians, but do try to eat meatless several days a week. For a less fattening version, use a sauce made with low fat cream cheese or other low fat cheese instead of the 3 cheeses.

Portobello Mushroom Burgers: Marinate the whole portobellos in minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, olive oil, and salt & pepper for a couple of hours. Grill, pan fry or broil the mushroom until nice and soft. Serve on a bun with usual fixings or as that centerpiece of your dinner with Oven Baked French fries and a salad or vegetable.

Soups: I often make soup as our main meal serving a salad before or after the soup. To low sodium vegetables add canned or cooked beans or lentils and pasta. Allow to simmer about 20 minutes, then add any vegetables you like. One of my favorites is Barilla 3 cheese tortellini simmered in the low sodium vegetable broth until done, Remove the tortellini, add some cooked lentils and a can of drained chopped tomatoes and heat. Add back the torellini. Serve over raw julienned baby spinach.

You can find recipes for burgers and meatloaf made with lentils or other beans. Check the frozen food section of your market for more ideas or google recipes. .

Does anyone know a really good vegetarian meatloaf recipe?

sfc<3

i want to make one but i cant find a recipe that looks good... i don't want anything that looks unappetizing.

Answer
If you have ever worked with Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP), you can use this as a substitute in any ground beef recipes, or you can use the fake meat crumbles from morningstar or Boca. I prefer TVP because it's just straight up vegetable protein and not "fake meat" and it's all natural, has a really great texture, it's easy to use and it's really cheap. The only thing is that you have to get it at a natural food store. If you live by a Whole Foods, you can get it in bulk. It comes dry and you just boil some water and watever other flavors you want (spices, soy sauce, etc) then throw in the TVP and simmer it on low until it's absorbed all the water.

I'm in the process of writing a cookbook right now that has tons of TVP recipes!

What meals could I make using lentils apart from soups?

vegan meatloaf sauce recipe
on Vegan Meatloaf Recipe Tofu

vegan meatloaf sauce recipe image

Answer
I have found two really good lentil recipes that I like a lot. One is for a vegetarian 'meatloaf' and the other is a broccoli lentil and rice casserole. There are many other recipes for lentil casseroles you can find on the internet. Indian dishes also often use lentils in curries, you can find these recipes by searching for Indian Daal recipes.
Lentils are also good for making veggie burgers or vegetarian sloppy joes.

Here is the link for the lentil loaf recipe:

http://www.food.com/recipe/really-good-vegetarian-meatloaf-really-33921

I usually add more tomato sauce than the recipe says. Sometimes I also sub the egg out with flaxseed (1TBS of ground flaxseed + 3 TBS of lukewarm water + mix until gooey= egg substitute for just about any recipe, including baking).
Also I like to spread ketchup over the top before I put it in the oven.

Here is the link for the casserole:

http://theliberalvegan.wordpress.com/2008/10/23/veganmofo-broccoli-lentil-casserole/

I am not vegan so I sometimes substitute parmesan or other cheese for the nutritional yeast and just use real butter. I've also made this recipe with asparagus instead of broccoli, or both together and it is very good. There are similar recipes on the internet but this is my favorite so far because it only takes one dish and is so easy to make, you don't have to precook anything, you just mix it all together and stick it in the oven.

i need help makin vegetarian foods and snacks with the non-vegetarian stuff i already have any help?

jamie

im newly becoming a vegetarian and i live at home and my family members are not vegetarians and so i need help finding things i can eat that are okay for vegetarians to eat..please help me out by giving me some...

Answer
Veggie Meatloaf

You won't miss the meat in this flavorful dish! Serve with mashed potatoes for a great meal! You can also substitute diced eggplant for the mushrooms.

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup uncooked white rice
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 cup cooked lentils
1 cup chopped fresh mushrooms
1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper to taste
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon dried parsley
1/2 cup ketchup

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a saucepan bring 2 cups water to a boil. Add rice and stir. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Saute onions until tender. Set aside.
In a large bowl combine cooked rice, lentils, mushrooms, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, egg, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, parsley and cooked onions; mix well. Press mixture into prepared pan; spread ketchup on top of loaf.
Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes.

Hariton's 'Famous' Vegetarian Casserole

This is a very tasty dish consisting of all kinds of fresh vegetables and herbs baked in the oven. This will tantalize your taste buds. It has been a sell-out at our Greek Church at every function for five years now. We serve this on toasted, warm pita bread.

Original recipe yield: 36 servings.

INGREDIENTS:
8 large eggplants
8 large potatoes
8 green bell peppers
8 large onions
8 summer squash
6 tomatoes
1 pound fresh green beans
1 pound whole fresh mushrooms
2 bulbs garlic, cloves separated and peeled
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill weed
1/4 cup chopped fresh oregano
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
3/4 cup olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:
Prepare the eggplant before assembling ingredients, by cutting them into 2 inch chunks and putting them into an extra large bowl with salted water to cover. This will draw out the bitterness from the eggplant. Let this sit for about 3 hours.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Cut the potatoes, green bell peppers, onion, squash and tomatoes into 2-inch chunks. Cut the green beans and mushrooms in half and peel the garlic cloves.
Drain and rinse the eggplant, then combine it with all the other chopped vegetables, the dill, oregano and basil and place all into a 3x13x18 inch roasting pan. Pour the tomato sauce and olive oil over all.
Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 2 1/2 hours, adding a little water about halfway through cooking time to keep moist.

Easy Peach Cobbler
This is a great peach cobbler--so easy a child can make it! It is great right out of the oven served with vanilla ice cream.

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup self-rising flour
1 cup milk
1 (15 ounce) can peaches

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a one-quart baking dish or 9 inch square pan, cream together sugar and butter. Mix in flour and milk until smooth. Pour peaches and their juice over the top.
Bake 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown.

Note: I didn't have self rising flour, so I used (according to a "substitutions" website I found) 1 cup of flour (minus 2 tsp), 1/2 tsp salt and 1 1/2 tsp baking powder for every cup of self rising flour.

How do I tell my mom, I want to become a...?

AmyAddicti

Vegetarian.
I love animals, and I don't want to see them get hurt, and know that I'm eating it.
I have eaten meat all of my life, and I just don't want to anymore.
Please help me because, all we eat in my house is meat.
And I know this will be a healthier lifestyle.
Thanks!

Answer
First, you must do some research.

Your mother's primary concern will likely be your health, so be sure you can answer her questions. Have sources that demonstrate that it is perfectly possible for you to grow up strong and healthy without eating meat (or having a gallon of milk and 6 eggs a day to "make up for it").

Know the nutritional requirements for a fe/male your age and size (taking into account level of physical activity) and come up with examples of good vegetarian sources of the various nutrients. She will probably be mostly concerned about protein and iron. She might ask about B vitamins. Look it up, know how much you need and where you'll get it from.

Do some additional research so you can point out the health benefits of vegetarianism. (Not only do you want to demonstrate that it isn't dangerous to be a vegetarian, you want to show that it's actually beneficial.)

Get some recipes and cookbooks and learn how to make some stuff. You will be cooking for yourself a lot more these days. It is unfair and immature to expect your mom to start making a separate meal for you every night, so get ready for some Emeril action. (Note: yelling BAM! randomly might make your parents think you've gone off the deep end, so keep it down to a dull roar.)

If you are old enough to work, get a part-time job so you can purchase cookbooks and any special ingredients you may want (tofu, seitan, nut milk, etc). If you get an allowance or have money from birthday or holiday gifts, use some of it to invest in literature and/or exotic food. Heck, see if Mom and Dad will pay you to wash the car or mow the lawn. Use that money to buy stuff. (Being willing to invest your own time and money in a venture shows people that you're serious.)

Offer to help cook dinner once in awhile. Say everyone is having meatloaf for dinner. Say that you'll do the mashed potatoes and veggie. Make the salad as well. Make a rich mushroom gravy for everyone to use (if you make your own stock for it, it'll be extra-good). Heat yourself up a Boca burger (or whatever "central protein piece" you want) and help Mom serve. If everyone is having spaghetti with meatballs, ask Mom to buy the chunky extra-veggie sauce and set some aside for you before she adds the meatballs. Make the garlic bread and chop the onions, garlic, mushrooms, etc for her. In other words, you need to demonstrate that this is not going to create a lot of extra work for her.

Best of luck to you.

vegetarian meatloaf recipe tofu image

jamie

I'm a vegetarian. What are some simple recipes?

Yaz

I recently bought tofu and a few broths from whole foods. I didn't even know what I was doing when I was grocery shopping. Anyway, please let me in on some good recipes and/or vegetarian cookbooks.
Excluding the obvious of course. i.e. SALAD! Haha. I need some real meals. Also, I don't eat fish or shellfish because I am allergic. Keep in mind I am 16 (going on 17) so simplicity is key.

Answer
What about a tofu scramble. You can use it the same way that you would use eggs. I go on tofu binges often so I cook it so many different ways. There are so many different types too, silk or firm are my favorites.
For a tofu scramble it is simple I will give you 2 recipes. One I make is a soy scramble, use soy or tamari. I saute some minced garlic, onions, carrots until tender then add the tofu and scramble it like it was an egg, then top with soy, salt, pepper, and for me always some hot asian chili paste or sauce and green scallion If you have black bean add it with the veg. Another one is to use Balsamic, oregano or basil and the some peppers if you like. More italian or greek influence. So now you have the basic try your hand on a scramble. Another thing I make is chili, I use the tofu like ground turkey or beef. I cook the onions, garlic, spice then add tofu and beans and more spice. You can even make a burrito scramble and put it in some whole wheat tortillas for breakfast or lunch. Tofu curry is always good, tofu with ginger, scallions, peanut oil and soy cold is good. It is good in noodles. I always make tofu curry with eggplant, longbeans, garlic, and thai green curry with a little kabocha pumpkin. The skies the limit with what you can do, make a tofu and veggie meatloaf or a loaf with chickpeas and veggie or lentils and veg. Good luck!

Does anyone know of any good meatloaf recipes? i dont eat red meat, but i was thinking ground turkey? help!?

What Vegetarian Meat substitutes actually taste like meat?

Adrianna C

My girlfriend is trying to eat less meat and I found a recipie for vegetarian lasagna, but it calls for meat substitute. Does this actually taste like meat?

Answer
Umm no, she does mean girlfriend. I don't know if you've heard, but some girls like girls. =P

I've never found a meat substitute that tasted exactly like meat, but I have had some that are so good that you don't miss the meat. I crumble tempeh into my vegan chili and it provides the meaty texture and comes out delicious. I fill lasagna with mushrooms and eggplant. I maake meatloaf with a blend of blak beans, lentils, and rye. I've heard that seitan also works very well in meat-centered recipes, such as vegan cheese steaks. I've never tried it because I am sensitive to gluten, but I've heard it's very good and meaty.

I do have my very own recipe of meatloaf. Which I call it ''Garden Meatloaf''. But that's the only recipe I have so far. I wish to have more meatloaf recipes. Do you guys have some good recipes to share with me?? Also, for those of you who are Vegetarian or Vegan, do you have a ''meatloaf'' recipe you can share with me please? I have family members that are Vegetarian. I have my own recipe book and wish to expand it some more:)
Thank you so much everyone for their recipes. Are there are any vegetarians or vegans who are willing to share their recipes for me?
Meant to say ..'' share their recipes with me?" Lol

Answer
Soak a piece of bread in milk till soft in big bowl. Add an egg, equal parts ground beef and ground pork, salt, pepper, minced onion, minced garlic, chopped fresh parsley, chopped fresh basil, freshly grated parmesan cheese, hot pepper if you likr spice, minced roasted sweet red pepper, and Worstershire sauce. Mix it all together. Press half of mixture into loaf pan. Press in a layer if fresh mozerella cheese, then the rest of the loaf mixture. Bake about an hour @ 350. I make meatballs using same recipe- I just wrap mix around cubes of fresh mozerella. So good with spaghetti. I make this using venison instead of beef- I don't use a loaf pan, I use a baking sheet and wrap raw bacon around the loaf. I didn't provide measurements because I never measure but compare to other meatloaf recipes and undoubtably you'll figure it out. This and some whole grain pasta tossed with fresh herbs, olice oil/butter mix and fresh grated parm is a big satisfying meal when you add a big salad or steamed veggies.

What are some different meals i can feed my 14 month old?

turkey veggie meatloaf cups recipe image

Michaela

I'm getting tired of feeding my 14 month old son the same thing all the time. For breakfast its usually oatmeal or eggs. I dont have any good recipe ideas for breakfast lunch or dinner. Do u have any ideas that are easy to make meals for my son?

Answer
Breakfast : Fruit pancakes (make a batch and freeze), miniature breakfast cups (eggs, cheese, veggies cooked in muffin pans), yogurt parfaits (soft fruits layered with yogurt)

Lunch/Dinner : Homemade soups like broccoli & cheese, tomato, vegetable beef, chicken tortilla (make a batch and freeze into individual servings), whole wheat english muffin pizza cut into fourths, brown rice with left over chicken and soft veggies topped with pasta sauce, vegetable meatloaf (sauteed onion, shredded carrot, chopped raw spinach), grilled chicken strips dipped in avocado and marinara sauce, homemade mac and cheese with lean meat like chicken or ground turkey with mixed veggies

I ALWAYS find recipes online (mostly from allrecipes.com). I try it out and if it is a hit I keep it, if it's not good I toss it and find another one. I am constantly finding things to help me with things we normally eat like new pizza ideas (chicken spinach alfredo pizza!), slow cooker ideas (my favorite!), meatless dish to save money etc...

What should I make for dinner and dessert?

sweetdollf

Hello,
I'm vegan and I normally cook only vegan food but I'm getting married soon and my boyfriend eats poultry, fish and drinks milk and I want to make him a full homemade meal just for him but I don't know what to make because I don't cook with those things. I've never cooked for him before so I want it to be really special. He loves chicken, beans, and rice so I need a really good recipe with these. I also want to make him a really good dessert. Something you've made before and everyone loved. Thank you!

Answer
You can use ground chicken or turkey or even crumbled tofu with soy sauce-- and he may never know that there was no meat with tofu-- just use ample BBQ sauce to mix

Shepard's Pie:
-Brown 1 pound beef/ ground turkey
-Add 1-2 cloves of garlic, 1 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce, and 3/4 cup ketchup
-Cover and simmer 20 minutes
-Coat casserole dish w/ nonstick cooking spray

1st Layer - meat sauce
2nd Layer - Green beans and corn
3rd Layer - mashed potatoes
Top with cheddar cheese (as much as you want)

350 degrees (preheated oven) for 30 minutes - bake uncovered

Meatloaf
1 1/2 pounds ground meat
1 slice of bread
1 egg
1 package of Lipton's Onion Soup Mix
pepper to taste
4 TBSP ketchup
1/2 cup half and half

*SAUCE*
4 TBSP apple cider vinegar
2 TBSP packed brown sugar
1/2 cup ketchup

preheat oven to 350 degrees

Mix sauce together until smooth and set aside

Add all ingredients together. Put in a loaf pan. Pour suace over and cook for 1 hour 15 minutes. Do this whether you use the sauce or not

or

Try Zatarain's Dirty Rice or Jambalaya Mix. With the dirty rice mix you have to use ground beef. With the Jambalaya Mix you can use chicken or smoked sausage.( *It taste best with sausage).

My version of ghoulash:

Ground Beef with vegetarain beans(pork and beans without the pork) with chopped onions, picante sauce, and tomato sauce. Serve over white rice.

Pasta Salad with veggies: Tri-colored rotini pasta with chopped onions, tomatoes, cucumbers and green olives. Mix with Robusto Italian Dressing. Add a little seasoned salt and black pepper. Chill in the frig.

Chicken Pettazini:

Spaghetti with chopped, grilled, boneless chicken breast, Four Cheese white sauce or the Roasted Garlic and Parmesan cheese white sauce. You can also add green pepper if you like.

---
Dessert

Chocolate stuffed french toast

French bread
chocolate chips or chunks/morsels/etc
5 eggs
1 C milk
1 ts each cinnamon & vanilla

The night before you want to serve this:

Cut a loaf of French Bread into very thick slices. In each slice make a 3/4" cut to make a pocket. Spoon 2 heaping ts chocolate into the pocket. Close pocket with a pinch of the bread.
Place into greased 9x13" baking dish. Mix up the eggs, milk & cinnamon/vanilla. Cover & refrigerate overnight.

Preheat oven to 400F. Bake 20-25 minutes uncovered.

Cookbooks for beginners and/or college students?

Bookworm

My brother intends to move out of his dorm and into an apartment. He's never really cooked before (stuck with the microwave and toaster.) I see a variety of beginner/college student cookbooks, but I was wondering if people had suggestions.

He's not vegetarian/vegan and he doesn't have any dietary needs/allergies at this time. (Maybe he will depending on his roommates, but that's not set yet.)

What do you suggest?

Answer
There are some really good "3 ingredient" and "4 ingredient" cookbooks for sale (I think I saw the 4 ingredient one at Costco)

These are a great starting point & not very intimidating. And, of course, you can totally spice things up to taste!

(I'm not much of a cook either! LOL - please check out my meatloaf recipe question!)

What are some good food alternatives? (lower fat/healthier alternatives)?

There are 3 couples taking a weekend trip. 2 of them are riding their Harleys there, we are trailering ours due to no saddle bags. One of the women is a vegetarian, and I would like to get a few ideas for snacks or easy dishes.
We have a rented cabin with a kitchen, but one never knows what kind of utensils or dishes will be available and we really don't know what we will find to shop for. I will be taking a cooler and I thought about taking ingredients for stuffed mushrooms or stuffed cherry tomatoes. I would mix the (stuffings) before I leave then it would be easy to get them ready upon arrival.

Answer
Some good snacks for the road are dried fruit, trail mix, primal strips (vegan jerky), and/or granola...plus I found some ideas for dinner. A vegan meat loaf can be mixed ahead of time...the recipe is below:

Vegan Meatloaf
Adapted from a recipe in The Joy of Cooking, 1997 Edition
1 14oz. package GimmeLean
3/4 cup finely chopped onions
1/2 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
1/3 cup ketchup
1/3 cup finely chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. thyme
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
3 tbsp applesauce
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp all-purpose white flour

Mix all ingredients together in a big bowl with your hands until they just come together. Joy of Cooking warns you not to overmix, though I can't imagine anything too terrible could happen if you did.

Put in a lightly oiled loaf pan and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes.

The site where the recipe came from also has some assorted recipes that may be helpful in sparking some ideas that you can run past your vegetarian friend who will be traveling with you.

Does anyone have a recipe for vegetarian stuffing?

Heather

I'm looking for something easy and without too many ingredients. Thanks.

Answer
Ingredients

* 1 (1 pound) loaf day-old bread, torn into small pieces
* 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
* 1 (10.5 ounce) can vegetable broth
* 2 tablespoons water
* 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
* salt to taste
* ground black pepper to taste
* 1/2 cup wild rice, cooked (optional)
* 1/4 cup dried cranberries (optional)
* 1/2 cup fresh mushrooms (optional)
* 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
* 1/4 cup cubed apples (optional)

Directions

1. Mix together the bread, cream of mushroom soup, vegetable broth, water, poultry seasoning, and salt and pepper to taste. Add any or all of the optional ingredients as desired. It will be sticky. Shape into a loaf and wrap in (nonstick, sprayed) foil to bake.
2. Bake for about an hour at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). You can slice it like a meatloaf and serve.

Stuffing doesn't have to be cooked inside a turkey - this vegetarian bread stuffing with apples and walnuts is delicious baked as a casserole.

* 1-2 t salt
* pepper
* 3 t sage
* 3 t thyme
* 1 t marjoram
* 1 t rosemary
* ½ c fresh parsley, chopped
* 2-3 T apple cider vinegar
* 16 c bread cubes*
* 4 c green apples, chopped
* 1½ c raisins (optional)
* 1½ c lightly toasted walnuts, minced
* 2 c vegetable stock

Directions Melt butter or olive oil over medium high heat and sauté onion and celery until soft and starting to turn golden. Add salt, pepper, herb, and vinegar. Mix well and remove from heat.

Preheat oven to 350.

In the bowl, combine bread, apples, raisins, and walnuts. Stir in onion mixture until well combined.

Toss with half of the stock and check consistency - you want the stuffing to be moist but not soggy. Add more stock as needed, then taste and adjust seasonings.

Butter the casseroles, add stuffing, cover, and bake for 45 minutes.

Vegetarian Stuffing
3/4 cup onion, diced
1/2 cup celery, diced
1/2 cup apple, peeled and diced
2 tsp dried or 3 tbsp. minced fresh parsley
1/2 tsp dried sage
1/4 tsp salt
pinch cayenne pepper
4 cups bread cubes (white or whole grain)
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)
10-12 tbsp strong vegetable broth* (up to 3/4 cup)

Preheat the oven to 350F and lightly grease a 1.5-quart baking dish.
In a small frying pan, sautee the onion, celery and apple until tender with the parsley, sage, salt, cayenne (or regular pepper, if you prefer). This should take about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes with onion mixture, cranberries, pecans, vegetable broth, adding slightly more if the bread is very absorbant (some need more liquids), and mix well. Taste one of the cubes and, if necessary, add additional salt or pepper.
Pour into prepared casserole dish and cover with aluminum foil. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes, until top is crisp and golden.
Serve immediately.

In large bowl combine meats, cooked veggies, bread crumbs soaked in milk, eggs and parsley. Mix well. In shallow pan shape into 2 loaves. Bake 350 for 1 hour, spoon ketchup over loaves and bake 30 mins. or until meat thermometer reads 155. 10-12 servings. (I have cooked this with only pork and burger, I subbed more pork for the veal, someday I will try it with the veal)
