My boy loves bean and cheese buttitos, and of course theres pb & js and grilled

cheese sandwiches. I really dont know what you use to cook with at the camp site

so its hard to say, do you have a frying pan, what about scrambled eggs and

toast? My kids like just about anything though so its hard to say.

I am new to the group.

 

I am not a vegetarian. I am Boy Scout leader, and we

have recently had a vegetarian boy join our troop -

our first. My specific reason for joining is to find

some vegetarian recipes (1) that boys could cook in

camp (2) that would appeal to typically finicky middle

schooler palates.

 

I look forward to seeing your posts, and trying out

some new things!

-Wow ! You are some kind of thoughtful Boy Scout leader. Your boys

will love some of the easy recipes found in our files. So much easier

and safer to take on camping trips due to the ingredients. Meat and

animal products such as eggs , milk, etc. are not the safest foods to

take camping. They are also the hardest to clean up after and are

bulky. They need refrigeration. Your Scouts will also learn the

health benefits of herbs and spices.

Wait until they see some of the fun names that the group comes up

with.

Print out some of the recipes and let the troop decide.

Congratulations for a job well done.

a great camping dinner is spaghetti and Italian bread. You can dump the sauce in

a plastic container prior to leaving. Boxed Mac and cheese is good too, but I

only use the whole foods brand, or the new Kraft organic, as they don't have all

the preservatives that all the others have. Compare the boxes and see what I

mean.

many kids do like veggies these days. You could make a veg stew and noodles at

home and take that along.

If you are using cheese, you could do what we call " kid pizza " in my house.

American cheese and spaghetti sauce on bread, then toast it in a dry pan with a

lid.

No kid turns down cereal either. One camping trip there was no more milk, it was

dark, so I used my soy milk for fussy daughter's cereal. She did not even

notice, mwahaha!

 

I made peirogies and zucchini on my last camping trip, just fried them in a pan

with some oil and onions, but that was for the adults, not many kids agreed to

try it.

 

You could also do black bean burgers. Morningstar farms has good ones! You can

take them out of the box they came in and call them " Mexican burgers " yaya

 

If I think of more I will post them.

 

Blessings,

Chanda

One of my favorites from Girl Scouts was when we would take

aluminum foil and make packets with potato wedges, carrots, a little

celery, some onion, and if you like, a veggie burger (Or tofu pups--they're

a lot like hot dogs, but they do cook faster). Dust the veggies with some

Lowry's Seasoning Salt, throw it all on the fire (you can put it right on

the grill), and serve with a bun and lots of ketchup and mustard. I still

make this and most of the food we had at Scouts was disgusting, so this was

a huge improvement!

Grilled PB & J is great too. Just make it like regular but fry it up

in a little margarine like you would a grilled cheese. Warning: all of the

non-veg kids will get hooked on this too! It's soooooooo yummy.

Chili is a good choice too. Fantastic Foods makes one in a box you

can buy in most stores and it actually makes a lot of people think there's

meat in it. I think you just dump in a can of tomatoes and a can of corn.

Serve over Fritos. The meat-eaters will like it too. Everyone loves Frito Pie!

Sliced Tofu pups mixed with vegetarian baked beans (Bush's makes

them or there are a lot of store brands out there too) make great

beenie-weenies.

If you want to make chili dogs, I like Tofu pups topped with

Bush's chili magic (the blue can is veg, and I think some of the others

too)--just add tvp instead of meat (it's lighter for hiking and doesn't

spoil), relish, mustard, and ketchup. Yum. Chips are an easy side.

These aren't the healthiest of vegan recipes, but they will appeal

to a kid and they are not too " weird " looking or tasting. Besides, camp

food is not meant to be about high nutrition. It's about fun.

You are very sweet to do this. I'll admit, my image of the Boy

Scouts has been pretty severely tarnished over the last few years, but it's

good to see there are such nice, open minded people involved on the troop

level.

Are you dutch oven cooking? I have been collecting recipes that I can use

in the dutch oven.

This will be the first time without meat.

One recipe that should appeal to all the boys...

PIZZA!

Dutch Oven Pizza.

Bag of Morningstar Crumbles (could skip this)

1/2 medium red onion, diced

1 tsp. Italian seasoning

3 TBS. Diced green bell pepper

1 tsp. Garlic power.

Can mushrooms, stems and pieces, drained

2 TBS olive oil

Small can sliced black olives.

1 can crescent rolls

8 oz. Shredded cheddar cheese (soy?)

8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese (also soy if wanted)

1 jar pizza sauce

 

Heat 12 " Dutch Oven using 18 - 20 briquettes bottom until hot. In a medium

bowl, add crumbles, Italian seasoning, garlic powder. Mix.

Pour olive oil into D.O. And spread evenly over bottom of oven. Unroll the

can of crescent rolls and line the bottom of the oven with layer of

flattened rolls. Spoon pizza sauce evenly over the crescent rolls.

Sprinkle evenly with seasoned ground crumbles, red onion, peppers, rooms

olives and top with cheeses. (Or any variation of veggies)

Cover and bake using 8 -10 briquettes bottom and 16-19 briquettes top for 20

Remember....anything you can cook at home....you can cook in a Dutch Oven.

I have been collecting easy recipes. After I try a few, I will post them

Introduction

 

 

Hi All!

My name is Dory and I have just joined this group. I considered

becoming a vegetarian for about two years and at the beginning of this

year decided that I was going to make the change after reading the

book The Gradual Vegetarian. I am working myself into a vegetarian

lifestyle, I still eat meat about 1x a week now. I am trying to learn

new things that I can cook minus the meat. I am excited to join this

group, and think it will be great support! No one in my family is

anything close to a vegetarian (and I think they think I am a little

crazy!) My hardest thing right now is finding things to eat when I am

out a restaurants - I'm getting a little tired of grilled cheese :)

I look forward to getting to know people and hearing your tips and

recipes.

 

Thanks!

Dory

Welcome Carol!

 

I'm sorry to hear about your heart attack, but very pleased to know that you

have decided

to change your eating style to improve your health. :) I see you are a lacto

vegetarian. You

may want to keep an eye on the fat content of cheese. There shouldn't be a

problem with

recipes here, though, since this is a low-fat group as you know. (You will have

received a

couple of file on joining that will help you.)

 

> . . . I quit eating meats . . . So far I have lost 17 pounds and I have also

started working

out at Curves.

 

Well that is really great news! Congratulations :) Keep up the good work!

 

I look forward to talking to you on the list :)

 

Best,

 

Pat, Co-Owner (with Cindi)

Hi Carol,

 

Welcome to the group. I know you will enjoy it. Little by little as

you try new recipes and new foods, you will realize you don't need to

eat meat to eat well. I do encourage you to cut down on cheese, as

it has the same saturated fat and cholesterol that meat does.

Welcome to the list, Carol. I am not a total vegetarian, but I wanted to learn

more about vegetarianism

because of having high triglycerides and cholesterol. The triglycerides are

a huge issue right now, so I've got to try to find some pastas and grains

that are more friendly where all of that is concerned. My main goal is

trying to eat a lot less fat, and what better way to do that than to find

some vegetarian recipes? I have already pulled several off the site and plan

to try the carrot raisin salad today.

Introduction

 

Hi

 

My name is Carol. I have lived in Central Florida all of my life.

 

Being a vegetarian is all new to me. I had a heart attack 2 years ago

on my

46th birthday and ended up having triple bypass. Its funny, I never

even

realized I had a heart attack. It happened during the night that I

had minor

pain in my left shoulder. I thought it was my arthritis bothering me

so I took

some asprin (Thank God) I was out of tylenol. I went back to bed, I

got up the

next morning washed the dog, went shopping and went out and ate all

you can eat

ribs. Later when I got home I told my son that I had problems off and

on during

the day catching my breath. He said I will be right there to take you

to the

hospital you had a heart attack. I argued with him for a few minutes.

He came

and got me and I went to the hospital. Sure enough, I had a heart

attack the

night before when I woke with the mild pain in my shoulder. So now it

is a big

joke that mom had to have the all you can eat ribs before she could

go to the

hospital with a heart attack.

 

Anyway for some reason, this didn't scare me enough to quit eating

everything

that I know is bad for me. So I continued eating all types of meat

and sweets

and what have you. About 2 months ago I had another scare with my

heart and

this time it hit home. I realized that if I didn't do something major

I

wouldn't be around to get married this Sept. or to see my grandson

grow up. So

right then and there I quit eating meats. I eat only fruits and

vegetables. I

classify myself as a vegetarian. I don't think I could become a

vegan, I like

cheese to much. My son was a vegan for 4 years when he was in high

school and I

just don't have that kind of self control.

 

I am the only person in the house that is eating this way. I still

cook meat

for my fiance. He is very supportive. So far I have lost 17 pounds

and I have

also started working out at Curves.

 

I am looking forward to learning recipes, ideas, anything I can about

being a

vegetarian.

 

Thank you for letting me be in this group

Alyssa,

 

My wife lowered her tryglycerides DRASTICALLY just by getting more

excercise. We started walking together in the evenings for about an

hour a day, and in about 6 weeks her doctor was amazed at the change.

And he wanted to put her on meds!!!

Bryan,

 

Wow! That is awesome! Mine have come down a lot since I initially found out

that they were high. I cut back on fried food, and now I rarely ever eat it.

I also cut way back on desserts, so people here need to quit posting brownie

recipes before I have to make some. LOL. Just kidding of course! I haven't

really thought much about how exercise plays into the picture, but now that

you mention it, my triglycerides were a lot lower when I was exercising a

good bit last year. I just haven't done much since this semester of college

has started, so I am the only one to blame there. It's a good reason to

start back up again!

What an inspiring story Carol! I am new to the group

as well. I just joined and wanted to say hi to

everyone. I was a vegetarian for 5 before children,

then I fell off the wagon. I'm getting back on now. I

am not vegan, like Carol, I love cheese too much! But

I'm moderating what I eat now. I am getting older and

I'm concerned not only about my health, but the health

of the planet. So, I'm glad to be part of the group

and get support and find really good recipes and stay

on track in my vegetarin eating.

 

I live in Sacramento Ca with my hubby and my 3 boys,

ages 5, 8 and 10. My 4 cats and 3 dogs.

I really thank you for letting me part of the group.

Welcome to Carol and other " newbies. " When I was new to this group (and to

vegetarianism), someone suggested Dr. John McDougall's books/website. Check it

out at www.drmcdougall.com, especially his " Star McDougallers. " He promotes a

" non-meat product " diet (doesn't call it vegan b/c of political inferences).

Has many recipes, newsletters, etc. I'm pretty much vegan but occasionally when

eating out, etc. may eat dairy or cheese products. I was a vegetarian for about

a year before reading Dr. McDougall and then immediately dropped the dairy and

eggs. Amazingly, many of my health problems went away, including joint pain,

morning back pain, mild depression, stuffiness, etc. I now think that I was

allergic (or " sensitive " ) to dairy. He has an 11-Day McDougall Program where

you can try out the program (free on his website). I got most of his books used

from Amazon or Barnes & Noble (www.bn.com). I was also having menopausal

symptoms, such as insomnia, so bought his

book for women. Now I take natural progesterone and that seems to be working.

As you can probably tell, I'm really sold on McDougall! I don't use many of

their recipes, however, as they tend to call for a lot of peppers, which I'm not

fond of. Happy McDougalling!

Welcome, Torey! Your post caught my eye in particular because I was

diagnosed with out of control diabetes in January of this year. I went

from ovo-lacto-vegetarian (who ate lots of processed foods) to low-fat

vegan overnight.

 

The results have been great. I just had all my blood work redone and

I've gone from an A1c of 12.2 to 6.1 without any meds! Also, my

cholesterol has gone from 280 to 199, my triglycerides from 260 to 94

and my LDL from 192 to 144. My doctor could not believe the results

from 3 months of eating healthy and walking every day. Oh, I also lost

28 pounds. :-D

 

We have lots of great recipes in our files, but you should also check

out http://www.fatfreevegan.com.

 

Good luck!

Linda,

 

Welcome to the list! If you haven't already, be sure to check out

.org for events, etc. We do have some raw foodists in

your area, such as Shari V. She could probably point you in the right

direction for local shopping, etc. If you can make it to Redmond, Tom

Armstrong runs the NW Living Foods Co-op (nwraw.com/). He also has a

supply of raw books. In general, health food stores, such as PCC and

Whole Foods have the best organic produce. Central Market (in

Shoreline) and its sister stores also have great organic produce.

Another good online resource is Nature's First Law (rawfood.com). I

have links to online raw sites here: http://www.soystache.com/

rawlinks.htm. On the same site are some nutrition tables for

comparing foods.

I like the Sno-Isle Co-op for shopping as well as Central Market in Mill Creek,

between 128th and 164th on the Bothell/Everett Highway.

 

And if you're out and about or want a nice drive, the co-op in Mt. Vernon is

exceptionally wonderful.

I was thinking of checking there. I have only been in there

once. They're real close to where I work.

Thanks for the info!

Welcome, Amber. If you go to the group page, click on files, and click on

recipes, you will find so many recipes which are TNT. You will love them.

Introduction

 

 

Hi and thank you for having me in your group. I am a pescatarian from

Cincinnati. I love to cook and try out new recipes (especially when

they turn out well!) I look forward to trying your suggestions and

sharing some of my tried and true vegetarian recipes for those who may

be looking for a new idea.

 

Thanks

Amber

I became a vegetarian just before I became a Sikh. Being a

vegetarian was in my vows.
