Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 Carmen It sounds like you are makng a Thanksgiving type Easter menu. Have you tried Tofurkey? They are okay. I don't think they are great. Here is a recipe that looks good to me. I haven't tried it. http://www.adoptaturkey.org/resources_recipesloaf.htm I have some recipes in folders but don't have time to type them out now. Happy Easter GB Easter Hello there everybody, So this will be my first Easter without a turkey. My kids are devastated and my daughter says she is not the vegetarian, so why can't I make one. We are Christian so of course this is a special day for us. What would one serve in place of the turkey? I can do all the other stuff like the stuffing, potatoes, veggies and even the gravy. But what does one do in place of the turkey? Anyone here face this dilemna as a new veggie? My kids are hard to please so any good ideas would be great.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 Some health food stores carry a protein substitute called " Wham " . It is spun soy beans made into a ham meat substitute. Other health food stores have something similar. For those just coming off of meat, you can prepare it as you have your favorite past dishes. Only less cooking time or no cooking time, cause it is already cooked. Some on the Wham, still score it, put the pineapple and cherries on it, and sweet glaze over it and call it good. But health food stores have more choices for the holiday cooking! Hope this is helpful. :-) Sandy Abernathy ---- Beth Renzetti 04/10/06 05:25:37 Re: Easter eeek!! we've always had ham.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 > > valleydoula <valleydoula wrote: Hello there everybody, > > So this will be my first Easter without a turkey. > What I often make for holiday meals where there are meat-eaters are pot pies. Here is a link to a mushroom pie I make (from my blog) http://guinnah.blogspot.com/2005/01/coming-to-terms-with- mushrooms.html#links You could make it more spring like - maybe some asparagus, carrots, fresh peas etc - and lighten the sauce - just a roux with some no- chicken broth, etc. Even throw in some veggie-chicken. Good luck :-) nancyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 That's great. i hope you enjoyed the day. What was on the Easter dinner menu? My family requested i make scalloped potatoes for our dinner. We had that and some corn, and salad to go with. i didn't make a dessert because we had some candy, and that was sweet enough! ~ pt ~ Men seek out retreats for themselves in the country, by the seaside, on the moutains.Ê But all this is unphilosophical to the last degree when thou canst at a moment's notice retire into thyself. ~ Marcus Aelius Aurelius ~~~*~~~*~~~> , paul v <paulvatoloco wrote: > > Want to wish you HAPPY EASTER and to everyone that > celebrates it. > My family is doing cooking today.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Go to our loaves and casseroles recipe files. There are loaves in many places including the bean folder, substitiutes for meat folder, and other places. Also look in our grilling/holiday/seasoning recipe folder. Find some nice side dishes to try from our recipe files. They are all catagorized in our files on our home page. Also you might enjoy making one of the meat substitutes. Look in our Meat Substitute Files under files on the home page for a great selection of products that are out there. Twice baked potatoes, sweet potatoe fries, stir fried greens, beans are some great side choices. Another idea that we like is to make different sandwich spreads(look in the sandwich recipe folder) and a couple of salads, deviled eggs, fresh fruit, etc. and have a nice outdoor picnic, if your weather is nice enough for it. On a picnic table on a enclose porch is also very nice. Have some Iced herbal tea. Serve your sandwich spreads with a choice of pita bread, crossiants, stone wheat crackers, etc. Look in our Appetizer folder for some great recipe ideas too........ For easter candy, here is a link to candies that are vegetarian. Also Jelly Belly Jelly beans are gelatin free. http://www.peta.org/feat/easter/baskets.html For another easter menu ideas, click on here and go down to Vegetarian Easter Dinner and then click on each recipe from the right side. http://allrecipes.com/HowTo/Easter-Menus/detail.aspx http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/et_hd_easter/article/0,1972,FOOD_9834_1857378,00\ ..html http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes/collections/healthy_vegetarian_recipes.html http://www.recipezaar.com/menus/vegetarian http://www.waitrose.com/easter/vegmenu.aspx Have fun exploring our recipe and meat substitute site as you create your vegetarian Easter Dinner menu.
