off topic vegetarian question

[Guest guest]

I do feel for you. I have been a vegetarian for 35 years.

 

I cannot imagine being a vegetarian and not having an adequate grocery store to

buy food. We are RVers and when I go out of town, I have to shop before I leave

because most of the grocery stores out there are totally inadequate.

 

I live near a college town and we have a wonderful food coop that has everything

I need. I go into a big store like Safeway, and I am at a loss trying to find

vegetarian and gluten-free products. You must not even have a large

supermarket.

 

YOu can buy some things like beans and grains online.

I want to say I " m really enjoying this group. I have two teens who are

vegetarians going on 4 years and am almost there myself. For one of my

resolutions this year I want to work my way through a cookbook and was wondering

if anyone has any suggestions about a vegetarian cookbook that's not 'gourmet'

and tends to be quickie without too many 'exotic' ingredients. I live in the

middle of nowhere and the local grocery doesn't carry anything veggie friendly

really.

Hi Tammy,

I love my cookbook - " 1000 Vegan Recipes " - there are no weird, exotic recipes

in it - but they do call for vegan things. But if you are not vegan, and are

just vegetarian, you don't have to worry about getting vegan chocolate chips,

etc. You can just get regular chocolate chips and go on with the recipe. The

book has recipes for biscuits, scones, dips, soups, appetizers, desserts, you

name it. It is about 2 " thick - a BIG book, chock full of delicious sounding

recipes. I just got it the other day, and I am going to cook a scones recipe out

of it this morning - changing one ingredient - I want raspberry scones, and

her's calls for blueberries. In scanning through the book, I haven't seen one

recipe that I wouldn't try. Or that my picky eater husband wouldn't try. I am

very pleased with this purchase.

Good luck!!!

Annie

Hi Annie,

 

I googled this book, but it came up with a couple different ones. What is

the authors name? TIA for your help.
