my kids decided to be vegie again
so both kids who live with me decided to be vegetarian again. I am readjusting. There are some meals that have become staples that i cannot make. Honestly in the winter I like a beef stew on a cold day. but I was vegie 16 years so I should remember this. Plus my cholesteral creeped up. So far the meals are
* stir fry with tofu
* bean burritoes
* spaghetti
* black bean enchiladas
* indian food feast, dal, vegie dishes and rice
* lentil soup (replaces that beef stew nicely)
* maybe garbanzo or lentil barley stew? they liked that when they were younger but not sure now.

You can make vegetarian Chinese potstickers. I used to make them with scrambled eggs and veggies, but you can use tofu instead of eggs. Get the wrappers at an Asian grocery store. Then I think you steam them first, then fry 'em. But you have Vitamin Cottage in Denver, don't you? They sell veggie potstickers, and chicken ones, too.
I have a great recipe for stuffed winter squash. Cook some brown rice, set aside. Fry 1-1/2 cup of onion, add 1 cup sunflower seeds, stir. Add 2 tbs soy sauce & 1/2 cup water and 1/4 tsp. each of sage, thyme, marjoram, stir, and allow to simmer uncovered about 10 mins. When liquid is almost gone, add 3 cups cooked rice, stir. Stuff each of several 1/2 winter squashes, bake til squash is cooked.
