Just wondering what everyone was planning

to have for dinner tonight? It is Friday, so maybe

you have plans to dine out?

 

I am going to try vegetarianizing a crock-pot

recipe I found over on an omnivore crock-pot

cooking group on .

The recipe is for a baked ziti and the claim is

you don't have to boil the pasta and it will

come out perfectly, so we shall see.

If it comes out well I will post it here tomorrow

when I fix it vegetarian.

You can find a lot of good recipes on non-veg

cooking groups if you enjoy the challenge

of converting dishes.

Everything in the baked ziti contains protein.

The pasta, cheese, TVP crumbles, etc.

Even the garlic bread has it! *lol*

Pretty much everything we eat has some protein

in it. Read the labels next time you are fixing

something for dinner and add up the grams

of protein in the stuff you plan to consume.

A woman my size and age needs only about

45 to 55 grams a day, and I usually eat 20 or

more per meal, so am getting plenty.

The protein worry for vegetarians is mostly

hype, IMO. So long as you eat a variety of foods

and in a healthy manner, you will get enough.

I hear this a lot from omnivores when they

discover I am a vegetarian, so I am always

prepared with an answer.
