So we decided to be vegetarians 3 times a week.

But I need help. Last night we had roasted veggie pasta. ... Tonight I think we will have veggie quiche and salad.

So please post nice veggie recipes :)

Thanx
 
I do this (mostly for religious reasons) ... but I would suggest you rather stick to veg on different days of the week rather than consecutive days because thats going make you'll bored eventually. Another option is to have a balanced meal rather than just having veg only.

Stuffed peppers, using various combinations of brown rice, mushrooms, onions, corn, etc etc

Risotto, which takes some time, but lends itself to all sorts of ideas. A great way to use the last white wine or even sherry!

Butternut & sweet-potato soup with rye or brown toast, or fresh crusty bread

Chickpea or butter bean curry
 
Straight up roasted veg.

Chunks of potato, sweet potato, butternut, carrot, peppers and whatever else you like. Season with whatever (rosemary is a great choice) and chuck in a whole clove or two of garlic, dont peel them - they will become paste inside the shells if you leave them in long enough.

All of this into a casserole dish or baking tray, splash of olive oil and into the oven at around 180 for approx an hour.

Trust me because I am one: even the most hardened meat eater will be seduced by the amazing savoury bliss that this produces.

Us indians have been doing this all along. our household fasts (don't eat meat) Mondays and Tuesdays. You could say that we where more religious in the past back then we used to only eat meat on Wednesdays and weekends.

Edit: checkup on the Frys Soya range their hotdogs are quite nice

Credit to you guys, Mila. "If everyone ate vegetarian 50% of the time it would be like 50% of people were vegetarian".

Will post some nice recipes in the next day or two when I'm at home and I have some time.
 
The worst thing about cooking a veggie is getting the wheelchair in the pot.
 
I'm sorry, but meat is meat and a man must eat. how can you turn your man into a wuss?
