Guest guest Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 I have used tofu-based fillings and they work fine. Roy - Tea Cozy Vegan and Gluten Free Monday, March 21, 2005 3:31 PM Filling Ideas? Does anyone have ideas for fillings that would work in Belgium Endive leaves (rather than in bread)? Rachel Ray just demonstrated a crab filling in endive leaves and it was so pretty! I'm trying to think of a vegan and gluten free version that would work instead.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Yum! Thanks for the ideas, ygg. They sound perfect! LaDonna PS: I've changed my mind about using Belgium Endive leaves and will use Romaine instead. I just returned from the supermarket and Belgium Endive wsa $3.99 for one small " heart " . Since I'm serving a group of seven I decided to take the more economical route. > Does anyone have ideas for fillings that would work in Belgium Endive > leaves I'd use quinoa, fennel, and cranberries.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 >>>I have used tofu-based fillings and they work fine. Roy Good idea, Roy. I've decided that for one of the fillings I'll make eggless egg salad using tofu, Veganaise, Bill's Best Chicknish', and black olives. I like that combination with crisp, fresh greens!

That's weird--it's almost in season here, so I imagine it's in season further south. If you can have a garden, plant some now! Endive grows reasonably well in containers, too. ygg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 That's so funny YGG. To think of planting anything in the garden now is very funny to me. Around here we don't plant until the May long weekend (Victoria Day) and so that's at least 6 or 7 weeks before we even consider putting seeds in the ground. I am guessing then, that endive won't grow here - lol. And yes LaDonna, it's about that here too - which explains why a salad at McD's costs $7. BL - who thinks of Tigger in the Fifel movies whenever anyone says en-deeve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 Ill have to research that. Since I am still working on a vegan raw diet (failing miserably). I havent used endive, but I should, I have been using romaine lettuce. I put shredded carrots, fresh salsa, chopped peppers, and raw sunflower seeds and roll them up for lunch. its so delish!!!
