Menu plan Monday–Veggie meals!

Posted Sep 27 2009 10:04pm

toesand pepers See my beautiful tomatoes and peppers? I’m so delighted to have such an abundance of gorgeous veggies, and I can’t believe they’re still doing so well in late September.

I’ve also just posted the last DB challenges -Vols-au-Vent, which are fancy puff pastry cups.

This week, I chose vegetarian meals as the theme. I don’t eat vegan every day, quite frankly because I don’t feel as well or have as much energy after a day or so.  But I do think it’s important for us to cut back. DH and I have discussed adding more veg meals into our diet, and we’ve discussed it before, but it just hasn’t (yet) happened on a regular basis. We have a few quinoa and bean dishes that we have. We love the quinoa ones, but I haven’t totally sold DH on them yet (with the exception of a chocolate raspberry pie made with navy beans–I will post this later this week).

Here are a few of our favorites

I can’t wait to see your vegetarian favorites!

Monday:

Celery and turkey in chestnut sauce

Tues:
(vegan) Lemony Mint Quinoa

Weds:
(vegan)
Red lentil curry with cauliflower and papads

Thursday:
(Vegan) Malasian curry (from the spice and herb bible )

Friday:
Pesto -ed mahi

Baked goods:
I surely don’t know. My baking has been pretty impulsive lately. Last week, I made an apple crumble (like this but less arrowroot and a mix of apples and cranberries), cinnamon bread and ginger cookies.

From my garden:

  • tomatoes
  • peppers
  • lemongrass
  • basil, parsley, thyme, rosemary, etc
  • carrots

From the market:

  • apples: gobs of them!
  • kale
  • onions

and everyone else?

Kim of Gluten free is life includes some of her favorite vegetarian dishes, including a Cocoa-coconut chili recipe from ED&BV.  Need I say more?  I think my menu for this week is changing now!  And she even gives a heads up on a pumpkin shortage.  Who knew!
