Guest guest Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Recently I've been enjoying the beans 'n' greens regimen, which I have begun to experiment with quite a bit. I do use spices and condiments, but very very little salt if any. This last week we've had stuffed acorn squash with kale (squash stuffed with black beans cooked my way), broccoli (and some other veg ixed in, have a look) seasoned Mexican-style on pureed limas, and, to break away from that template, a faux chicken dinner with roasted vegetables and steamed asparagus. I have descriptions, ingredients, etc., with photos on my BeanVegan blogsite if anyone wants to put up with my amateur photography. http://beanvegan.blogspot.com/2010/02/bean-stuffed-acorn-squash-mexican.html Anyone have anything particularly good on the menu lately??? Love new ideas. Best, Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 I had angel hair pasta with red bell pepper, onion and garlic sauteed in lemon vinigrette; it was really yummy.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 I had a wild mushroom soup with seed bread for lunch - tonight will be mixed bean curry (nom!!), tomorrow will probably be a can of spicy lentil soup, supper will be either veggie chilli or maybe mushroom risotto at the local pub :-) The Dragon (aka High Priestess Enchanting Even weave) Current stitching - RSPCA Perfect Pets, Map of Durham, Cat Ornaments, Green Man http://tempewytch.blogspot.com/ - stitching/house http://tempewytchdiet.blogspot.com/ - diet/angst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Oh the UK can be sooooo civilized ;-) Trying to imagine our local pub (or any pub around here) producing a mushroom risotto - let alone one which had not had the rice cooked i chicken stock. The veggie chili? Well, maybe. We could possibly have that. But ya never know what they might add to it where we are. (I know you're not vegan, so I don't mean the cheese.) Mind you, there _are_ a couple of places around that could come to that if they would. Veggie Burgers, however, are ubiquitous on pub menus, which can be a blessing if you're in a hurry for a friendly, casual meal. I'm with you i spirit - missed your lunch (love mushroom soup, love seed bread) - for this evening. Have a lovely time!

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Today in the  USA   is National Pancake Day so guess what we are having tonight???  'Do what thou wilt, but harm none'. Each individual is responsible for discovering his or her own true nature and developing it fully, in harmony with the outer world.  Goddess Bless. ________________________________ Patricia <moondreamer64_2000 Tue, February 23, 2010 2:41:43 AM Re: On The Menu  I had angel hair pasta with red bell pepper, onion and garlic sauteed in lemon vinigrette; it was really yummy.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Last night we had the pot pie from Robin Robertson's " Fresh From the Vegetarian Slow Cooker). I added corn and substituted some of the chick peas for firm tofu (had half a block leftover that I wanted to use up). I also doubled the crust but it was a bit much (1.5 times next time I make it). The only other change I would make is to make more of a gravy. Omni-DH had two helpings which was great. He is not very open to eating " my meals " - always thinks they will be tasteless or boring (sometimes won't even try). He didn't like the tofu so I'd leave that out next time. I might also add mushrooms (I love mushrooms). Tonight will probably be falafels with a coleslaw (I have 2/3 of a purple cabbage to use - maybe with carrots - purple and orange!!). ~Paula PPlease consider the environment before printing this email Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 We had a mushroom, leek, and cauliflower pot pie for dinner a couple of days ago. Not particularly spicy (leeks are soooo mild!), but tasty, nonetheless!

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 That looked really good! I'd have probably added a little bit of this and that to spice it up a little - but only a little, because it'd be a shame to overwhelm this dish, I should think, and too much would turn it into a whole 'nother thang Thanks for the link!
