Guest guest Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 So I have been thinking about our conversations here on vegetarian holiday meals. I really like the idea of having a bunch of wonderful side dishes instead of a focal dish like turkey. It's certainly a new way of thinking about holiday meals after all those years of meat eating . I am thinking about how wonderful it would be to compile a list of our vegetarian holiday dish ideas and maybe put them up on the RR website somewhere. I bet we can get Kathleen to mention it in the weekly newsletter, too . How do you all feel about this? Would anyone like to submit a recipe (or give me permission to use one already given)? On another note I bought the latest issues of Vegetarian Times today since it is featuring holiday meals. One of the recipes is a mushroom, cheese and vegetable strudel using whole-wheat phyllo! I haven't seen whole wheat phyllo in my stores, but I wonder if I asked for it if they could get it for me... I will try that. Right now I am reading the magezine waiting for my newest dish to cook: Mushroom and cheese flan. I had this dish at an amazing vegetarian restaurant in Avebury, England. I requested the recipe and the chef gave it to me! It's basically a whole wheat and oat crust, very crumbly and hearty, with a mushroom, cheese and milk filling. If it turns out ok I will share the recipe here . Heather There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle.

Guest guest Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 Heather, This sounds fantastic. I hadn't mentioned any new recipes. But I do recommend that butternut squash soup from the RR cookbook for any thanksgiving. I can transcribe it if you'd like me to.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 JJ, it depends on how much protein you put into it . I will post the recipe tomorrow.
