hello

[Guest guest]

Greetings-

 

I am a newcomer to this list, delighted to find some vegetarian inspiration

for using my crockpot.

 

I have been vegetarian on and since high school. I finally decided to keep

meat out of the house about 5 years ago when I wanted to start keeping

kosher. I've never liked meat much anyway, so it wasn't a difficult

decision, especially compared with the prospect of two sets of dishes and

cookware to keep meat and dairy separate. We do eat fish from time to time,

but I looked through the archives and saw that that was a sore spot, so this

will be my last mention of it, I promise :-)

 

I have a couple of tried-and-true crockpot recipes (which I will share

later, assuming you folks actually need another recipe for chili or white

bean soup), but I don't use it as much as I'd like. I am an inordinately

busy homeschooling mom with two part time jobs, so the appeal of the

crockpot is strong. I just need to find recipes which are tasty, simple,

and don't rely too heavily on super-processed foods. I am about to try out

the Indian pudding as a treat for my early-rising husband.
