introduction

[Guest guest]

Hello Vegetarian and Spicy Veg cooks! To the members of both groups, sorry in

advance about the cross-post but as the reasons I joined these groups are pretty

much the same I am taking the easy way out and posting my introduction to both

now... killing two tofurkeys with one stone, perhaps.

 

My name is Laura, I'm 25, not a vegetarian currently but have been in the recent

past and also considering becoming one again someday. I like firm tofu but not

mushy, I love tempeh - especially marinated and baked or stir-fried, and I think

Brassica oleracea is the most amazing food-plant. I try to eat relatively

locally, except for my banana-a-day addiction, and I love it when the

berry-producing Rubus species (i.e. blackberry, raspberry, salmonberry and

thimbleberry) here in Portland Oregon are fruiting.

 

I don't cook much unless you count making toast, but my boyfriend, who has been

vegetarian for many years, has a pretty deft hand in the kitchen. Hopefully he

will let me steal a few of his (and my) favorite recipes to share with you, and

I'm looking forward to seeing what other delicious recipes are out there!

 

Nice to meet you all, and belated Happy Thanksgiving!
