Guest guest Posted November 12, 2002 Report Share Posted November 12, 2002 Hi all, Ok a couple of questions... 1. My wife and I intend on purchasing a Tofurky. Does anyone know excatly how big(or small) those things are ? I mean are each of the family members going to be able to eat off of that thing or will we need two ? 2. What else can anyone recommend to go with it? We need a few vegan recipes and a few lacto-ovo recipes. We checked out Vegetarian Times and the recipes they had in there just were not happening. ..Thanks in advance! ~RUFK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a similar recipe I found (I don't use the french fried onion and sub. jalapenos): Creamy corn casserole Ingredients 1/4 cup butter 2 (3 ounce) packages cream cheese 1 (11.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained 1 (15 ounce) can cream-style corn 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chile peppers 1/2 cup chopped onion 1 (6 ounce) can French-fried onions Directions 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). 2 In a medium size bowl, cream together butter and cream cheese. Mix in whole kernel corn, cream-style corn, chiles, chopped onions, and 1/2 can of the French-fried onions. Pour mixture into a 1 quart casserole dish. 3 Bake in a 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle the remaining French-fried onions over the top of the casserole. Return to the oven and bake an additional 15 minutes.

RUFK: It was either last year or the year before that Veg Times had a fantastic Thanksgiving recipe for something like a mushroom torte. It was OUT of THIS world. When I saw your post this morning, I went scrounging through my back copies but alas! I've not been able to locate it. Maybe the website has it in their archives???? Does anyone remember the thing I'm talking about? I made it for company and they just loved it and they're not veggies Storm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 13, 2002 Report Share Posted November 13, 2002 Hi, I bought one the other day. It is approx 5 1/2 to 6 inches across and about 3 inches tall. Box says it will serve 4. I've not tried it yet because the direction calls for basting it with orange juice, soy sauce and brown sugar and of course I didn't get any orange juice... I did ask another veggie if she has tried it and she said yes but that she and her husband did not care for it. That was after I bought just the roast and a box with a roast, gravy, tempeh drumsticks, and tofurky jerky. All are still in the freezer but I will eat them eventually.

Guest guest Posted November 13, 2002 Report Share Posted November 13, 2002 << We need a few vegan recipes and a few lacto-ovo recipes. Wechecked out Vegetarian Times and the recipes they had in there justwere not happening>> Here are a couple of Thanksgiving recipes that I always make. You didn't say you wanted vegetarian AND low fat...right?? : ) Not for Thanksgiving at least!! This carrot casserole sounds like nothing but I assure you everyone loves it. And you do not taste the horseradish but it gives the casserole a wonderful flavor! Carrot Casserole 2 lbs carrots 1/2 cup reserved carrot liquid 4 Tbl graded onion 1/2 tsp. horseradish 1/2 cup mayo 1 tsp salt 1/4 tsp pepper 1 cup crushed Herb Pepperige Farms stuffing mix or dried seasoned bread crumbs 1/2 cup melted butter Peel,dice,and boil carrots until tender crisp. Drain carrots and save 1/2 cup carrot liguid (hardest thing for me to remember!) Place in greased 2 qt casserole dish. Combine carrot liquid, onions, horseradish and mayo, salt and Pepper. Pour over carrots. Top with bread crumbs. Pour melted butter over top. Bake 375 for 20 mins or until slightly brown and bubbly. The other recipe I always make is stuffed mushrooms. Since you probably are making a stuffing for the bird or fake bird this is half done. I saute the mushroom stems and the insides of the mushrooms that I have scooped out. Add that plus chopped water chestnuts, (wonderful light crunch), to a moist bread stuffing. Stuff the mushrooms with this, place in a buttered carrerole dish, cover with aluminum foil and bake for about 1/2 hour or until steamy and mushrooms are cooked. Mushrooms will darken when done. I never make enough of these because the meat eaters always want them too. jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
