Weekend Cook and Tell Round Up: The Temporary Vegetarian
For last week's Weekend Cook and Tell challenge we asked you to go temporarily vegetarian by making a satisfying meatless main. This challenge proved to be a popular one, here are some of our favorite herbivorous responses:
Cantaloupe Alone is no vegetarian but this Fall Flavored Red Lentil Soup with Eggplant was a hit.
ElizabethS and friends made a spread of vegetarian Spanish-inspired tapas. Check out the pictures over at The Manhattan (food) Project.
The ambitious morgancain made not one but three vegetarian dishes, a mushroom rice casserole, a quinoa lentil curry, and a grilled corn and black bean salad.
NotAmerican and family are mostly vegetarian so it's no surprise they have great ideas for veggie mains. Grilled portobello and haloumi sandwiches with mayo and roasted red pepper sound particularly enticing.
KarynMC decided that dessert was the way to go. She made chocolate mousse and vegan banana bread baked into dinosaur shapes—cute!
Taking advantage of all of the tomatoes and eggplants at the peak of their season right now, whoot likes to make ratatouille and serve it with homemade pita rounds.
joyyy whipped up some vegetarian chilaquiles using tomatoes, tomato paste, hot sauce, eggs, and tortillas she just happened to have in her fridge and pantry.
One of cybercita's favorite recipes is an artichoke frittata. What sets her frittata apart from the rest is the addition of bread crumbs, smoke paprika, and thyme.
Jilly knows that just because something is vegetarian doesn't mean it can't be decadent. Case in point, her potato and leek pizza with a rosemary and Parmesan cream sauce on puff pastry.
kirbie just so happened to be invited to a vegetarian potluck. These potato salad tofu pockets were a success at the party and the next day in her new bento box.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to participate in this week's Weekend Cook and Tell challenge. We love to keep up on what all of you are cooking up at home. Be sure to head over to Talk and read about next week's challenge: favorite brown bag lunches.
