I want to eat something so nice today, help me plase?!


Question: I want to eat something so nice today, help me plase?
I am a vegetarian and have been eating the same thing pretty much everyday, since I became a vegetarian about 6 months ago...I have looked up recipes and made mushroom pasta(I think it's called) That was nice, but I get over food very quickly, I eat it twice then get sick of it..I have been forcing myself to eat the same thing everyday though, which is just noodles... I want to make something that will taste nice today..Does anyone have a recipe or a site with a good recipe? Thanks so much if you do...

A spicy veg curry with boiled white rice, or naan/pitta bread.



Everyone seems to think that as vegetarians/vegans, we eat salads and just about nothing else. Not true! There are so many amazing different things we can eat, you just have to be a little inventive and open to trying new things.

The website that makes meal planning easiest for me is www.101cookbooks.com. It's a collection of hundreds of amazing vegetarian and vegan recipes. The writer, Heidi, uses a lot of unique ingredients and I've tried many, many recipes from that website and I've been more than pleased with all of them. You can search for meals by a specific ingredient you'd like which can make it easier to find what you're really looking for.



If you are only eating noodles, you have more to worry about than just getting burnt out on eating the same thing over and over again. A vegetarian diet has to be planned and balanced. You can't be healthy if you are just eating noodles.

You need to consume enough calories, protein, vitamins and minerals.

You should see a nutritionist for advice before you get really sick, if you are not already.



What I think is funny is there are millions of different vegetarian/vegan recipe websites. Even if you go to a website with regular recipes, there more than likely will be vegetarian dishes there. I found so many doing that.

This is an amazing recipe.

Like someone else said, if all you've been eating is noodles for six months, then you have much more to worry about than monotony. You need some vegetables, fruit and whole grains (if the noodles you've been eating aren't whole grain) in your diet. You made the decision to become vegetarian, so you need to take responsibility for that & take care of yourself properly. Cook some *real* wholesome food. It's quite simple and as a veg'n you have a thousand more options food-wise than the average omni. Browse around vegweb.com for some inspiration, or even just google veg'n recipes or a specific meal you'd like veg'nized. Go to your local library & check out a few veg'n cookbooks if you can't afford to buy any. There are lots aimed towards beginners to both veg'nism and cooking (seems like you fall into both categories). As an example, this is one of my absolute favorite dishes, and it's so simple: http://viveleveganrecipes.blogspot.com/2… . Tonight I made shaved brussells sprouts (pretty much just julienned brussels sprouts sauteed with garlic and a little onion, & celery flakes or fresh celery leaves until they're a bit browned). I had a big helping of those along with a couple of potato pancakes. I plan on making spring rolls sometime in the next week, and I think I'll probably make some tofu scramble for breakfast/brunch Sunday morning to have on English muffins with a vegan cheese spread. I'm making vegan nacho cheese dip/spread for Sunday afternoon (Superbowl, yuck), so I figure I'll save some of that out before I add the Mexican spices. I'll also be making guacamole, so I'll probably use some of the leftover avocado to make vegan sushi sometime later in the week.
