Guest guest Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Here's one of my faves. I learned it when I used to volunteer to make meals for a homeless shelter. The church made it because it's easy to make in quantity and everyone likes it. It's a tomato-mac casserole which turned out to be very easy to vegicize. 8 oz wholegrain macaroni 1 onion, diced 1 clove garlic, minced 1 tsp dried oregano 1 tbsp olive oil 1/2 package veggie crumbles (or TVP, soysage, frozen-then-thawed tofu, or your protein source of your choice) 1 can diced tomatoes 1 jar marinara pasta sauce salt and pepper to taste ad libbed additions (chopped olives, capers, etc.) bread crumbs Boil the macaroni until it's somewhat cooked but still fairly firm (it will continue to soften in the casserole.) At the same time, saute the onion and garlic until the onion is soft and translucent. Add the dried oregano and stir, cooking for about a minute longer. In a 9 x 11 casserole dish, mix the remaining ingredients except for the bread crumbs with the onion mixture. Top with bread crumbs. Bake at a moderate oven temperature (gas mark 4-5, Celcius 175 - 200, Farenheight 350-375) until hot and bubbly and the bread crumbs are toasted brown (about 30 minutes.) This tastes great with Parma sprinkled over it. I don't know how widely available that is, but it's a sort of parmesan substitue made of nutritional yeast and herbs. Quite tasty! Okay, I've showed you mine. Can I see yours? Cheers, Trish Jerrrold Fuller wrote: > > > Hi everyone! > Anyone interested in sharing veggie meals info? I make a mean > vegetarian casserole.
