Guest guest Posted June 22, 2000 Report Share Posted June 22, 2000 Hi, I've been lurking here for quite some time, enjoying the great recipes. I finally felt the need to go out and buy MC - and am now the proud owner of MC v.5.0. This means I get to share some of my favourites. I'm not a full-on vegetarian, but have been eating this way predominantly for many years. As I'm a kiwi (New Zealander for those unfamiliar with the term - and thinking that I might be some sort of furry fruit), some of your ingredients are a bit of a mystery - but my ex-pat US friends manage to suggest alternatives. Hope this isn't too much off topic as an introduction - and here's a simple & yummy recipe to start with.
