RE: Dinner inspirations! Hi J Lyn/ meat cravings!

[Guest guest]

Speaking of meat cravings...

I was having the worst one when there was this plate of pepperoni on the table,

even though I haven't had them before and have been meat-free for a year and a

half now. I succumbed to the craving and ate a piece. Which is terrible, I know,

but actually it was so disgusting and tasted soo... fleshy, I spit it out right

away. No more cravings for me!

I feel much better after actually saying that.

Hi,

The last week or so I have been craving meat. To get my mind off of meat, I

have been trying even more new things. I have a friend here who loves to cook.

Even though she is not a vegetarian, she loves cooking veggies and will try

everything. So she has been helping me with some new veggie dishes and trying

new fruits ( I LOVE FRUIT). It's funny because she had me try avacado; I almost

spit it across the room YUCK! However, the fresh mango was delicious LOL!

 

Thanks for the help and concern

I was wondering how you were doing with meals and if you have found plenty to

eat without craving meat. Believe it or not I have a small kitchen too but I

spend every bit of time I can out there making all types of meals and trying new

recipes. I hope you have found plenty of easy delicious dishes from our

files...........just keep reading our posts (:- )))))))) Donna

post often, but I read yours. Some of these dinners sound wonderful! It makes

me longer for a bigger kitchen . Keep up the good work, you all have made it

easier to become and stay vegetarian!

slice of raw onion, steamed baby red potatoes with dill, sauteed asparagus in

blood orange olive oil with almonds sprinkled over the top. Oh yes, and a 1/2

can of Cherry/Vanilla Dr. Pepper (:-O I have to have my sugar baby! Donna

interesting to share what we all had for

dinner. Especially for those of us who are fairly new to vegetarian

meals and could benfit from the ideas. It's so exciting to shop for

groceries when I know I will be eating wonderful food!

 

This was mine:

 

Pita Pockets with brown rice and marinated vegetables.

Chop into bite-size pieces any combination of salad vegetables you

like. I used freshly steamed beets, celery, mushrooms, zucchini, red

pepper, green onion cucumber and feta cheese. Make a simple olive oil

and lemon dressing with a little salt and pepper plus any other

seasonings that grab you.

Into a pita pocket put in a small scoop of rice and spoon on some of

the vegies with dressing. enjoy!
