Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 I am currently attempting to go ovo-lacto after being vegan for the past nine months (I have IBS and what appears to be a potential dairy allergy aggravating it further), and was wondering if anyone has run into any issues with that I should be aware of. Also, Thanksgiving is coming up, and it will be my first vegetarian Thanksgiving with my parents the carnivores. They wouldn't know what to do with a Torfurky if one came to life and bit them in the ass--and frankly I wouldn't either. Suggestions on preparing a vegetarian Thanksgiving meal would be GREATLY appreciated, and what brands of things like stuffing to look for that aren't loaded with chicken fat and all that crap. Thanks muchly, Andrea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 I just say tomake all the fixins. Homemade mashed potatoes with gravy, candied sweet potatoes, homemade stuffing rich with spices, corn, creamed broccoli, etc etc. Homeamde stuffing is easy. Just get some bread cubes and some hiho ritz or townhouse crackers, like a sleeve of them, and saute some celery and an onion in butter. add some spices, any will do, I add a touch of garlic powder, some sage, rosemary and thyme. saute until tender, and pur over the bread and crackers, mix is tup, and adda couple of eggs or egg replacer, an then some milk unti it is moist to the way you like it. Bake for about a half hour or so depnding upon the temperature your oven has to be for the other stuff that is in it. ) hugs, Chanda -------------- Original message -------------- " Andrea Berman " <andrea.berman I am currently attempting to go ovo-lacto after being vegan for the past nine months (I have IBS and what appears to be a potential dairy allergy aggravating it further), and was wondering if anyone has run into any issues with that I should be aware of.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Speaking of HiHo crackers...Does anyone know where they can be found? My mother in law used to buy them and says they are the best crackers (better than Ritz) and she has looked everywhere and just can't find them. Any help would be appreciated. puterwitch wrote: I just say tomake all the fixins.
