Have you ordered your new "Thug Kitchen" cookbook yet. It came out on October 7. The best for vegetarian cooking. I am vegan, I decided that being vegetarian did not remove my demand for animal products from the market enough. My motivation is purely that I could not eat meat without overwhelming guilt due to the cruelty to animals and the impact on the environment. Vegan suits who I am more completely. At restaurants I just ask them to replace the meat in any dish with mushrooms and yum, that actually works pretty much every time.

Hi BlueCoupe
No, haven't heard of that cookbook but will check it out
I'm not quite vegan, ovo lacto at this time
but agree that mushrooms are an excellent substitute for meat, they provide the bulk and flavor that's needed in some dishes

I made a super green soup this week.
Fry some onion, garlic, celery and courgette chopped up small and then added cubed potato until it all goes translucent. Add some Marigold bouillon powder, mix in well and pinch a couple of cubes of potato to munch because it's irresistible.
Add water and simmer until everything is soft enough to blend into a fairly thin soup. Chuck in chopped green stuff, cabbage, spinach, green beans, peas, a few broad beans, broccoli, whatever.
The important bit: Add a load of chopped mint, some parsley if you have it, season with salt, pepper, maybe a drop, or two of Tabasco and I like a squeeze of lemon juice in just about every veg dish.

do people always ask you where you get your protein from?
people always ask me when I tell them that I am a vegan. I eat fresh fruits, fresh vegetables (sometimes raw) and fresh nuts for snack.

serene56: Welcome lovely Joey
Tofu is made from soybeans, water and a coagulant which turns it into a solid.
Its high protein and calcium content is excellent and ideal for vegetarians, I use it a lot as it absorbs flavors through spices and is a great addition to any Asian style meal

thanks for sharing this. people often think that us vegans and vegetarians don't get those nutrients.

I am not a vegetarian, but I don't eat much meat, I prefer fish. I would go to vegetarian restaurants on occasion though.
However, I do grow a lot of my own veg in my little garden. The flavour and freshness cannot be compared to produce that is treated with herbicides and pesticides, and then shipped half ways around the world before it reachestyour plate.
Serene, there is a fab vegetarian restaurant near me,http://www.cafeparadiso.ie, and Denis has also written great books which can be bought from the website. He is a total food artist!
