Darlene Blaney has two good cookbooks that I use all the time!. In fact, I just had her "mock tuna" sandwiches for lunch! If you want to go veg, not vegan, you can use real cheese and chocolate chips and milk where she calls for vegan cheese/soy cheese, soy milk and carob chips!.

Warm Vegetable Salad with Greek-style Oil & Lemon Dressing
Greek oregano, rigani, is a stronger, sharper version of the familiar Italian herb!. The word oregano derives from the Greek, meaning “joy of the mountains”, and was well-known to the ancient Greeks!. Today it covers the hills and mountain slopes of Greece, perfuming the air with its flavour!. You can find bunches of dried rigani in Continental stores; it is worth seeking out to give an authentic flavour to the traditional latholemono dressing that goes with this very palatable warm vegetable salad — a delicious meal in itself when accompanied by crusty bread!.
