  1. Chicago Diner's Reuben! It is very very tasty! And their chocolate mousse cake is heavenly too.


  2. My fave lunch or dinner recipe is grilled veggie combo:

    Grilled eggplant, zucchini, mushroom, tomato and onion, With olive oil, mixed herbs, coriander, watercress and spinach. Pinch of salt and cracked black pepper. served with Lebanese bread. I could eat it every night. Low cal really healthy & very tastey. Add some roasted pine nuts on top for protein.

  3. i love quorn, im vegetarian and its the best food i have ever had. there are lots of vegetarian style dishes, but i always tend to stick with quorn, especially with cooking it myself, as im not a very good cook, and its very practical and easy to cook =]

  4. my mom cooks me indian food (vegetarian ones), my mom cooks pakora, sabji, chapati, etc. it's very nice.

  5. Love my stir frys and pasta with sauces and pasta salads.  Store bought-  love Amy’s frozen enchiladas, burritos (some are vegan), Indian entrees, It’s Soy Delicious ice cream, Lara bars.

  6. I am not a vegan but I think the following foods that I enjoy are vegan:

    Dairy/sugar- free fruit smoothie

    Fruit "soups" for dessert

    brown rice with eggplant/vegetable  curry

    pan roasted potatoes with olive oil and thyme

    mushroom "burger" (my wife's specialty)

    green salad with vinaigrette

    white bean casserole with preserved lemons (no meat version)

    garlic mashed potatoes (no dairy, just olive and garlic oil)

    a lot of pasta dishes

    and a few others.. some are/may be vegetarian but I am not sure if they are vegan

  7. pumpkin soup with potato and sweet potato

  8. lentils with wild rice and greilled peppers, and pumpkin "cheesecake" for dessert

  9. A raw butternut squash soup at Pure Food and Wine in NYC.

    A seitan steak with parsnips and purple tomatoes in a syrah reduction at Vegetate in DC.

    The Vegetarian Skewers at Harmony Cafe in DC.

    A macrobiotic curried tempeh wrap at a spa cafe in L.A.

    This raw zucchini and bell pepper salad with a tahini sauce I had as part of a food demo at Whole Foods.  They have these classes every month, and this was a raw vegan foods class.  I made it myself this week, and it was almost as good.

    Sweet & Sara S'mores.

    That's all I can think of right now.

  10. Our entire family, especially the kids, have always loved Tofu Tacos. Perfect served with vegetarian refried beans, green salad, and Spanish Bulghur (from Diet for a Small Planet) Tofu Tacos are really easy to make:

    Corn Tortillas

    Extra firm Tofu

    Cooking Oil

    Taco Seasoning (prepared dry mix of spices or your own)

    Chopped veggie condiments (fresh tomato, shredded vegan cheddar cheese, lettuce, green onion)

    Taco sauce, if desired

    1. Be sure to have all other items in the meal prepared and the table set; these tacos are really quick and best fresh out of the skillet.

    2. Heat oil in skillet.

    3. Discard liquid from tofu and pat dry.

    4. With fork, scrape the tofu into pan quickly. This will produce a "crumbled" look and texture.

    5. Quickly sprinkle on a couple of tablespoons (or desired amt) of dry taco seasoning.

    6. Constantly work the mixture back and forth with a spatula. Yes, the mixture will stick at first, but will quickly become unstuck as water leaves the tofu and comes into pan. This all takes just a few moments. The tofu will shrink and shrivel into a yummy crumbly mixture.

    7. Fill taco shells with mixture.

    8. Individually assemble & garnish with desired condiments at the table.



    For a fantastic side dish that's like Spanish Rice, see Diet for A Small Planet, recipe for Spanish Bulghur, or email me for the recipe.

    Enjoy! We've had many happy times around the table with this, most kid-requested meal at our house.
