Menus
Weeknights at the Veggie Diner
Vegetarian home cooking is often hard to find--for some reason, most vegetarian cookbooks have a lot of exotic ingredients that I'd love to try, but just are not practical. Sure, we all aspire to cook fabulous food--I'd love to be the master of braising beets and lighter-air-lemon souffles, but let's face facts here . . . I'm assuming that you are like me: gourmet-challenged! So I've made a couple of real life weeknight menus, food you would see at my make-believe Vegetarian Home Cooking Diner.
Week 1
Monday Queenie Beanie and Rice, Steamed Broccoli
Tuesday Cottage Cheese Oat Loaf, Mashed Potatoes, Steamed Carrots
Wednesday Slow Cooker Pea Soup, Rolls and Butter
Thursday Zucchini Crab Cakes, Garlic Buttered Noodles, Creamed Spinach
Friday Tofu Tostadas
WEEK 2
