OH is vegetarian, so I eat a lot of meat free food, as I do the cooking. Off the top of my head; Small pasta shapes with a jar of green pesto. Not very adventurous but delicious and quick. Ditto pasta with garlic and sprout tops - just put the sprout tops in with the pasta for the last couple of mins, drain, and fry the garlic in the pan while it is draining - the perfect accompaniment the University Challenge. Quorn mince isn't bad for chilli or meatballs in tomato sauce, and stir frys bring out the flavour of the veg. Baked potatoes with baked beans and cheese? Also fajitas with loads of veg, using the spice packets you buy, soured cream and grated cheddar. Friday night lardfest. In season we ADORE grilled halloumi, broad bean and spring onion salad with lemon dressing. I have a very good lasagne recipe which I've been making for over ten years now, so let me know if you want it.
Convenience food we like; Tesco vegetarian hot dog sausages, with a roll, mustard and ketchup you wouldn't know the difference. Tesco cauliflower cheese grills, Linda McCartney's country pies. |

I am not a huge fan of a plate without some meat on however we do have a vegetable en croute which is very nice. You need squares of puff pastry, which will be a top and a bottem. In the middle I do a tomato, cougette, diced carrot, mushroom, onion, peas and sweetcorn. Make up a suce, by sweating the veg and adding the chopped toms, season to taste, then reduce. Put a couple of spoons on each square, leaving a border all the way around. Brush beaten egg over the border, but not down the sides, and sandwich the top on, squeezing up the sides, like a pie edge. Coat with beaten egg and back until pastry is cooked.
It looks a bit like a pasty. |
