What are some vegetarian dishes for a new vegetarian

Question

vegetarian meals and recipes

Answer 1

Soy chorizo and eggs.

Simmer mixed veggies and tofu in a prepared curry sauce. Same mixed veggies can be done in olive oil and soy sauce for stir fry.  Serve over rice.

Cuban Black bean soup. Any recipe website should have this. If the recipe isn't veg just sub broth for veggie broth and omit meat.

Pizza - brush olive oil on store bought crust. layer Basil garlic & tomato. cover with Mozzerella and cook as directed on package. Also good with sauted purple onions, mushrooms, corn, and black olives with a  BBQ, white, or red sauce.

My personal tofu tip: As soon as you bring it home slice in 1/4" slices, place on baking pan drizzle with olive oil and soy sauce, bake 20 minutes at 400. Store in airtight container in fridge and use in any recipe as needed throughout the week.

Allrecipes.com is one of the better recipe sites. Check out the creamy corn chowder by J.D.

Answer 3

You can turn most meat recipes in to vegetarian dishes by omitting the meat and putting something in place of the meat..  I often use mushrooms in place of chicken!  

  Salisify  a vegetable that tastes sorta like lobster can be used in place of fish!  I often use watermelon the red stuff soaked in oil in place of fish!  Sliced beets can be soaked in soya sauce and fried in oil   result  you get fake fried bologna!   ca.360.yahoo.com/ddherbals
