Well, this should be fun. I’ve just started eating vegetarian again, even before Lent. (A health issue – When I ate vegetarian for 2 years 8 years ago, I got down to my ideal weight and my cholesterol levels were perfect. So I’m trying it again.) I do use eggs, dairy products and occasional fish. Of course I include grains and legumes.
-Chinese restaurant – veggies of all kinds (without meat, pork, or chicken), fried rice without meat of any kind. Any dish without meat in it.
-Mexican restaurant – anything without beef, chicken, or pork. Anything with beans or cheese. Lots of choices usually. Beans and rice are perfect. The one I go to makes a wonderful pico de gallo type dip for the tortilla chips that contains chopped cabbage as well as the usual ingredients. I feel like I’ve had my salad when I eat that.
At home:
-Mexican-style beans with vegs over rice
Beans, canned, any kind (kidney, black, pinto)
Tomatoes, canned
Zucchini, diced or sliced
Corn
Bell pepper
Onion
Garlic
Oregano
Cumin
Cilantro, fresh
After sautéing vegs in olive oil, mix in beans, tomatoes, and herbs. Simmer a few minutes and serve over rice (I use brown rice). Sprinkle with cilantro.
-Meatless spaghetti(primavera?):
Onions
Bell peppers
Garlic
Zucchini, diced
Tomatoes, canned
Tomato sauce
Basil, dried
Pinch of sugar
White beans
Fresh basil, chopped
Parmesan cheese
Aftter sautéing vegs in olive oil, add tomatoes, tomato sauce, sugar, beans, and basil. Simmer for 30 minutes. Serve over spaghetti pasta with chopped fresh basil and parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. I like to serve broccoli as a side vegetable.
-Any curry dish using vegs and legumes such as lentils, peas, garbanzos. Serve with Naan bread. Try an Indian restaurant and eat vegetarian only. Good stuff!
-Try Thai food containing no meat. More curry.
-Baked potato with grated cheese, green onions, plain yogurt (or sour cream) and broccoli. Even add kidney beans if you like.
-Sweet potato with pecans. Add butter if you like.
-Rice Pilafs that include a legume. Lots of possibilites.
-Omelets, loaded with your favorite fillings, except for meats.
-Quiches. (Yes, real men do eat quiche.)
-Fish and seafood, any kind, served any way you like. Serve with sides of course.
With any or all of these, serve salad on the side with legumes (beans or peas) and/or hard-boiled egg added. Also a good bread and butter or olive oil dip. And serve milk to drink for the extra protein.
Did I write too much?

Fish Tacos
They sound odd but were really good. My daughter fixed them Wednesday night.
Flour tortillas sprayed with oil then sauteed and let cool over a rolling pin to give them the taco shell shape.
Slaw- we used precut cabbage and carrots then added red onion and a granny smith apple. This is the first layer in the shell.
Tartar sauce- we just mixed some sweet relish and mayo. This goes on top of the slaw.
Fish filet- you could easily use frozen ones but we breaded some whiting with breadcrumbs, fried them briefly in a pan, then finished cooking them in the oven. Less fat that way, I think, but still crunchy. This is the last layer in the taco.

How about spaghetti with a meatless sauce. Canned/bottled sauces should be fine, but check the ingredients. Remember that the problem is meat, not broth or fats or other meat products. Also eggs and milk are acceptable when you're looking at an ingredients list.
I remember getting upset a couple of years ago when I ordered a plate lunch with fried catfish and white beans and rice, and the white beans had pork seasoning in it. I know now I could have picked out the meat and still eaten the beans, but I didn't realize that at the time. I ended up then eating the meat rather than eating just the catfish and throwing away the rest, but now I know I would have had another, more acceptable alternative.
So meat products used for seasoning are acceptable as long as there are no chunks of meat. It's OK to use broth, bullion, etc.

I used to have this awesome vegeterian chili recipe from weight watchers but can't seem to find it. The following is from an online search plus a few more ingredients I remember. If you try it, let me know what you think.
1
large onion, diced
1
green pepper, diced
2
cups matchstick-cut carrots
2
cups sliced mushrooms
2
cans crushed tomatoes (Italian w/herbs is good)
2 (15 1/2
ounce) cans beans(Kidney & chick peas), undrained
1
envelope chili seasoning mix (less if you don't like it too spicy)
1
can crushed pineapple, juice and all
Throw all the ingredients in a crock pot; stir.
Cook on high for 6 hours.
Notes: You can throw in half a jar of salsa if you like, whatever you find handy in the kitchen.
If you do not have crockpot, it works fine on top of the stove.

Recipe for LEEK POTATO SOUP
Yield: 8 to 10 servings
3 ea. Large Leeks
3 lb. Potatoes
3 ea. Large Onions
2 ea. Garlic clusters
1 qt Milk (optional)
1 qt Half and Half (optional)
1 pt Heavy Cream (optional)
3 c Chicken Stock (clear)
3 c Water 1 x Salt and/or Pepper
Peel the potatoes in advance and keep them submerged under cold water to prevent discoloration. Smash the garlic clusters on their sides to separate the cloves. Cut off the large end of the cloves and crush the clove by laying the cloves on a flat surface, and pressing down on them under the side of the blade of a wide, bladed knife. Remove the peelings from the crushed cloves. (This is a very easy way to peel garlic.)_ Inspect the leeks and remove any parts of the plants that are withered or discolored. Chop the onions. Coarsely chop the leeks, including the leaves. Sauté the leeks, onions, and garlic in peanut oil. Peanut oil seems to work best but olive oil or corn oil may be used. Sauté until tender.
Set aside in a strainer to drain any excess oil. Select a pot large enough to cook the potatoes with some room to spare for the soup. Add 3 cups of chicken stock and 3 cups of water. Make sure the chicken stock is clear, containing no fat. If homemade chicken stock is not available then substitute with instant chicken broth, but use locally prepared stock if possible. Cook the potatoes in the stock/water combination for 25 - 30 minutes, or until done. Remove the potatoes and reduce heat under the pot, but keep the liquid hot. Drain the potatoes and insure the sautéed vegetables are drained. Place potatoes and the drained vegetables in a food processor and blend on medium to high speed until smooth. Return the blended mixture to the liquid in the soup pot. Stir well and increase heat. Heat just to boiling.
If the soup appears to be too thick at this stage slowly add a little more stock or water. If desired add salt and pepper to taste. The soup is ready to serve at this point, especially as low fat or a lite soup. But I like to add milk or cream. When the liquid reaches boiling point, add the milk or cream. Stir. Milk produces a thinner soup than the cream. Cream or Half-N-Half provides a full flavor with more body. Heat to just below the boiling point. Be careful at this stage and do not boil after adding the milk or cream. Too much heat at this time will cause the soup to stick to the pot and loose flavor. Serve immediately with fresh baked bread or homemade croutons. Additional comments: The amounts of the ingredients are not critical to a successful soup. If you like garlic it’s hard to put too much in this recipe. The amount of onions can be varied also. The more onions, the better it seems to be. A ratio of one bunch of leeks to one pound of potatoes is OK. But more leeks don’t spoil it either. For people without a large food processor: The potatoes can me prepared as if making mashed potatoes (with a mixer) but with just potatoes. If the mixture becomes too dry add water or milk while beating. Blend the sautéed vegetables in the food processor and add to the beaten potatoes. Blend until smooth before adding to the stock.

| My favorite meatless meal is also my kid's: Mac and cheese with spinach and tomato. Boil a large pot of water and add one box (about 12 oz.) of any kind of noodle and a small box of frozen spinach. Cook about 12 min. or until done. Add one 15-oz. can chopped tomatoes and heat through. Grate about one cup of sharp cheddar cheese and add to the rest, heat through if necessary. Season with salt and pepper. It's really good!

I came up with this recipe Friday.
Call Pizza Hut, order a cheese pizza with extra cheese.
I'm 25 and I live alone, give me a break

If I did that, they'd have to deliver it to your house. Pizza Hut doesn't deliver here.
I'm 55 and I'm usually alone on Friday night, but it's canned soup and bagged salad here!

Red Baron has a 4 cheese pizza in the freezer department of our grocery store. It is good by itself but you can jazz it up with chopped olives, chopped green onions or/and chopped red and yellow onions. Besides the added flavors, the added veggies make for a nice presentation of the food.

We had a shrimp pasta on Ash Wednesday. It was very rich but quite good. Plenty of garlic is a must! I'm thinking about trying crab cakes or salmon cakes...never had either but they sound good. Friday we went to the Parish Fish Fry....fried catfish, hushpuppies, french fries....yum, yum!

Food doesn't usually last long enough on my plate for presentation to have any significance whatsoever. 
Besides, if I put anything on a pizza that even remotely looks like a vegetable and I survive the night, I will have to find another place to live because my wife will try to kill me. Veggies on pizza (or pretty much anything else) are not permitted in my home.
My wife likes four veggies: Broccoli, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and okra.
I hate four veggies: Broccoli, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, and okra.
I love tomatoes. My wife hates tomatoes.
I hate tomato juice. My wife loves tomato juice.
Veggies are not discussed in my home.

Some of our favorites include French onion soup with ceaser salad; homemade mac & cheese, with a side salad and crusty bread; breakfast (pancakes, YUM!), cheesey potato soup; of course any kind of pasta with red sauce (for me).
We don't really like fish here, so if we do eat it, it's definately a sacrafice, lol.
I think I'll make the onion soup this week, as a matter of fact

LOL, I'll be back to this later this afternoon.
That is if I can get my dd off the computer. My Mom is picking her up from school today, and is going to surprise her by stopping and buying a Webkinz. So I have a feeling, she'll be busy on here later
But never fear, I will be back!

Ok, here's what I got 
Homemade Mac & Cheese
16 oz macaroni
1 stick butter
3 C Chedder cheese, divided
1 can evaporated milk
Breadcrumbs (I eyeballed it, about 1/2 C I'd say)
Salt & Pepper to taste
Cook the macaroni, and drain.
Combine the macaroni, butter, evaporated milk and 2 C cheese.
Put in 9x12 greased baking pan
Sprinkle remaining cheese, then breadcrumbs on top
Bake in 350 oven for 30 minutes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
French Onion Soup
1 large yellow onion
2 C beef broth
1/2 C red wine
2 tbls Worsh sauce
1tsp thyme
1/2 tsp ceyanne pepper
Sautee onion in olive oil until carmalized.
Add other ingredients
Bring to boil and let simmer 30 minutes (although mine usually is on the stove longer because I cook during the day, and we eat in the evening)
**This is a bit spicy with the thyme and red peppers, so adjust or leave out according to taste.
Add bread and a good provolone cheese (I usually splurge on cheese when I make this). This feeds two people, with a bit left over.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cheesey Potato Soup
This is an eyeball recipe, nothing is really written down for it, when it looks right, it's done  What I outline is enough for a family of four.
6 potatos
1 Can evaporated milk
Salt, pepper, and cayanne pepper to taste
Velveeta cheese (mmmmm, Sorry, Darlene!!), I'm gonne guess about a cup.
Butter, about 2 tbls
Cook the potatos, do not drain the water. Slightly mash them. Add the evaporated milk, butter, and spices. Bring to a boil, then turn the stove down. Add the cheese slowly to allow it to melt. Let simmer for a while (30 min?) to let it thicken up some. But pay attention to it, the cheese will burn to the bottom of the pan (learned that one from experience!) Serve and enjoy
Most people also like onion in their's. Dh doesn't, but I do. If ya like it, add it. Also, this is great to leave out the cheese and add creamed corn. Same basic recipe, but you may have to thicken it up some.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mushroom Sandwiches
2 Tbls Balsamic Vinegar
2 Tbls Lemon Juice
2 Tbls Water
1 Tbls Olive Oil
1 tsp fresh minced Rosemary
Dash of pepper
About 2 minced cloves of garlic
4 large portabello mushroom caps
Combine the above and let the mushroom caps marinate for at least a half hour.
Grill or broil mushrooms for about 5-6 min per side. (If using a pan, spray with non-stick cooking spray!)
Make sandwiches by adding roasted peppers or your fave fixens' I like to add cheese while it's under the broiler to it's all melty and gooey (Sorry, again, Darlene {laughs evilly}).
Ohhh, it's also good to grill the buns or bread, too. A little crusty. Gosh, am I hungry!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Enjoy your lent!!! Who needs meat, anyway?
Oh, and yes, I do realize that I *cannot* spell cyanne

Your adjectives combined with those delicious ingredients are going to make this one hard to pass up!

| You guys have had me dreaming of French Onion Soup all week. I was going to fix it for tomorrow but I just couldn't wait. I bought the canned sort, some sesame semolina bread and provolone cheese and ate it tonight! I am going with the baked mac and cheese tomorrow.
