Guest guest Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 I have this cookbook but not a chance yet to cook much out of it. If any members own it please give a review about what you have tried. Lately I've been hooked on the groups recipes and of all things, the Goodhousekeeping Vegetarian cookbook, there are some awesome recipes in it.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Hi Donna I have this book anmd I made the Roasted Butternut Squash soup. I really hated it, which may have been in part because I oversalted it and also I am fairly unfamiliar with butternut squash. I was reading on a blog where someone had made this soup and they mentioned being " afraid of the 2 peppers " and my recipe made no mention of peppers so I was wondering if the UK version of the book was different? Undaunted, I plan to try something else this weekend, probably the Coconut Heaven cupcakes as I now have a muffin tin of the correct size!

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Christine, I also have the cookbook which I adore. Never tried the Rasted Butternut Squash recipe but looked in it to see about the " 2 peppers " it mentioned nothing about it. What does that mean anyhow? Steph Got a little couch potato?

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Before I went gluten-free, my favorite recipe in VwaV was the Ethiopian Seitan and Peppers. I think seitan is the one thing I miss since taking that plunge, but I feel better for having eliminated it. So, that is my jealous recommendation. Have a chunk for me. -Erin http://www.zenpawn.com/vegblog , thelilacflower wrote: > > I have this cookbook but not a chance yet to cook much out of it.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2007 Report Share Posted August 3, 2007 Now why are you gluten free? Are you allergic? There is a folder of gluten free recipes in our files.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 Thanks. All those in my book are similarly sans gluten. I find it rather easy actually. Grains in general take somewhat of a back seat in most calorie restriction (CRON) regimes anyway, as they are higher in calories with relatively less in the way of nutrients than fruits and veggies (i.e., Dr. Furhman's H=N/C formula {health = nutrients divided by calories http://eat2live.notlong.com ). I did it as an experiment when my blood tests came back negative for celiac disease. I still had suspicions that my daily homemade seitan habit had wreaked some havoc on my intestines, and my understanding is the test can come back false negative (though not the reverse), esp. if you had already been cutting back prior. Since I liked the subjective results of my little one mouse study, I stuck with it. Same way I went vegan. Figure you can do almost anything for two weeks, and by the time you've really tried it, that's often all the proof you need. But, I do hope you like it. I still use similar spice combinations to that recipe, just with veggies instead. -Erin http://www.vegandonelight.com , Donnalilacflower <thelilacflower wrote: > > Now why are you gluten free?

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 Celiac disease is a very specific set of symptoms arrising as a reaction to eating wheat, caused by the bodies production of histamine. A negative to celiacs only tells part of the story. Celiac disease testing does not test for glutan allergy or intollerance or even an allergy or intollerance to other grains. You can even be allergic to wheat and if your reaction is not the specific reactions that are discribed as Celiac's disease, you get a negative. It isn't a false negative, it is a true negative based on a very restricted set of symptoms. Katie Erin <truepatriot wrote: Thanks. All those in my book are similarly sans gluten.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 Understood. I don't think we're disagreeing, right? Anyway, personally, at the end of my " one mouse study, " I knew it was a good idea for me even without the test results. And I certainly didn't want to get a biopsy, since it wasn't much of a hardship, after all. Further- more, it gets easier every day. I've found substitutes for the *textures* I craved. Surely, it's harder on my friends and family.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 My grandson is not allergic to wheat, but when he eats it he gets so hyper that I can't stand to be around him. All I have to do is hear his voice to know if he has been eating wheat. He is allowed to eat it for dinner, but not for breakfast or lunch when he will be expected to concentrate for school. I don't know what I woud do if I couldn't eat it. Pasta is a big part of my diet.' Katie Erin <truepatriot wrote: Understood. I don't think we're disagreeing, right?
