Guest guest Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 Carmen, the first holidays as a vegetarian are a little difficult. I would give one of the bean, tofu, lentil, or TVP leaves a try. Which one you select I'm sure will be welcomed at the table. You can serve them with a nice gravy. Enjoy Easter, Isis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 At my mom's we have deviled eggs and I take vegetarian stuff there with me. I make chili's from the files so I will probly pick one of them out. There's cheese enchiladas, salsa and then some unvegetarian stuff I don't touch.

You just add all of the stock to the rice at once, close the pressure cooker, bring it up to the appropriate pressure, and then it is done or almost done in about seven minutes. Then you can let it cook longer with the top off, add cheese and herbs or whatever, and finish. > > I highly recommend the cookbook, Vegetarian Cooking Under Pressure by Lorna Sass. I used to be afraid of pressure cookers and never even considered that I might ever use one until I met a vegetarian couple who showed me the light. Then, I bought a scratch and dent pressure cooker from William Sonoma and went to town with it. Unfortunately, I accidentally put the PC in the dishwasher and ruined it and have been too cheap to replace it since. I could live on risotto but hate the tedious stirring, so I should just buy a pressure cooker and be done with it. > > The asparagus and pine nut risotto recipe is from Babe's Country Cookbook (which is vegetarian), by Dewey Gram. It is based on the movie, Babe.
