Vegetarian Recipes
My favorite recipes are now vegetarian recipes. I like the idea of being vegetarian; it makes a viable way for everyone to have enough food, and for happier animals too. You'll find vegetarian recipes listed at the top. Check about half way down for some cool things for vegetarians.
My first favorite vegetarian recipe - Mushroom Slop
Okay, this might not sound like a most appetizing recipe, but it is the name my husband and I came up with to describe what we had made. We were newly married and tried different things out. This is one of them and it tasted good. We still enjoy it today.
Ingredients:
1 12 ounce package of noodles
1 can mushroom soup
3/4 of the soup can of water
1/4 onion diced
1/2 T of butter
salt and pepper to taste or your favorite seasoning
Optional - small package of fresh mushrooms, rinsed and sliced, and/or a handfull of miniature carrots, rinsed and diced. - (We now sometimes add sliced mushrooms and/or diced carrots and cook them along with the onion.)
Heat water to a boil. Add the noodles and stir occasionally. Follow package directions for cooking time, and to your preference.
While the noodles are cooking, saute the onion in the butter until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add your favorite seasoning to taste. Stir in mushroom soup and water and cook at medium heat. This should finish up about the time the noodles are done.
Drain noodles and pour soup mixture over the noodles and mix.
Makes approximately 4 servings.

Our second favorite vegetarian recipe Green Rice
I came across the original of this recipe after our daughter came into our lives. I've since greatly modified it and it too has become a favorite. This is the modified version, and I give credit to Betty Crocker for inspiring me with the original version.
3 cups cooked white rice
1 cup cooked chopped spinach
1/4 cup dry parsley
2 eggs well beaten
3/4 cup milk
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. seasoning salt
1 Tblsp butter
8 ounce grated Mexican cheese
Heat overn to 325 degrees. Toss rice, spinach, and parsley together. Add eggs, milk, Worcestershire sauce, and seasonings. Stir in 3/4 of the cheese. Pour mixture into 10x6x1-1/2" oblong baking dish or 2 qt. casserole dish. Dot with butter. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake 30 to 40 minutes. Makes approximately 6-8 servings.
Vegetarian Chunky Potato Soup
Potato soup wasn't always vegetarian, but with a couple of changes it can be. This is my version.
2 Tbsp butter
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 bay leaf
1/2 tsp Thyme
2 lbs potatoes - peeled, chopped, and rinsed
32 oz. vegetable broth
1/8 tsp pepper
1 cup milk
In a saucepan, melt the butter and saute the onion. Add the bay leaf and thyme, then broth, potatoes, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook for about 15-20 minutes; potatoes should be almost soft enough to eat. Discard the bay leaf. Remove about 2 cups of the potatoes and onion to a bowl. Puree the reamining soup. Return the potatoes and onions to the soup. Stir in the milk and heat to boiling.
Serves 4-6.

This cookbook isn't completely vegetarian, but she sure does add fruit and vegetables to some of the most amazing things. She does this by making purees of them and adding the puree to the recipe. I like using a hand blender for making the puree. (p.s., you may want to add some extra sweetener to the brownies.)

This is the one I use. This is only one speed, but the bottom is detachable. It works well for me. Hopefully, Amazon will be getting more in stock. Below are a couple of more options that looks promising.

[in reply to ] I usually eat cheese, tomato, and onion on mine and am quite happy with that. I do know that vegetarian burgers can be different with their main ingredients. When eating out, so far I prefer the ones at Garfileds and Ruby Tuesdays.
