Christmas especially. I have tried a few vegan " roasts " and vegetarian roasts but nothing has really tickled my palate. Does anyone have any good recipes for roasts that I could try. This weekend I am babysitting horses for a friend of mine. They have a bunch of turkeys. Turkeys are pretty cool birds. They are infinitely curious and veery friendly. Follow you around like a dog. However, they have one tom turkey that is as mean as a hungry snake. He will fly at you and draw blood. My friend has had a couple of serious cuts from his beak and feet. A turkeys beak and claws are like tempered steel and very sharp. Being hit by hm is like being slashed with a knife and the cuts can be very deep and require stitiches. I have warned them that if he nails me we will be having turkey dinner next weekend. He is also endangering the health and welfare of all the other turkeys. I can't understand why they are keeping him. I would have a great deal of trouble trying to summon up enough guilt to not have him for supper.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2003 Report Share Posted June 6, 2003 If so, please post them. I could use some good recipes for roast and other un meats too. Thank you. :-) Janice ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Blessed are those who can laugh at themselves, for they shall never cease to be amused.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2003 Report Share Posted June 6, 2003 I have a really good way of dealing with those moments when I'm at risk of falling " off the wagon " . Go to the PETA website and watch that video taken from a slaughterhouse. A bit drastic, yes, but it reminds me of why I'm doing this. Gives me a month of two of strength, lol.
