Vegetarian on a Budget: Something cold and sweet to warm you

http://vegetarianonabudget.blogspot.com/2015/02/something-cold-and-sweet-to-warm-you.html

Vegetarian on a Budget. Thursday, February 5, 2015. Something cold and sweet to warm you. There is a strange phenomenon that i’ve noticed. When it’s cold, the ice cream stores are jam-packed with customers. You’d think it would be just the opposite. I rarely even think of cold treats on cold days, but according to the guy serving up treats at a nearby gelato place, there is no such thing as a slow season when you sell frozen treats. Summer or winter, people apparently like their cold sugar. Add the parti...

Vegetarian on a Budget. Thursday, January 29, 2015. Here are some reasons to go veg. Are you already a vegetarian or are you looking for a reason to make the switch away from a meat-based diet? Sometimes, when we are looking for a reason to make the decision to change some aspect of our lives (like going veg, for example) having a good reason to do so, helps us make that choice. How about this: Vegetarians live longer, studies show. Not enough to make the switch or keep you adhering to a plant based diet?

Vegetarian on a Budget. Friday, January 16, 2015. Can't Beet This Soup. Among my friends, it seems, people either love them or hate them.There's no in-between. Some of my friends won't eat them at all, some will eat only the greens and some only the roots (the red part that is mostly associated with beets). Some of us eat both. While I have most often eaten the roots pickled, I have been trying to work the roots into more recipes and serve the greens in a salad to accompany the entree or soup that I make.

Vegetarian on a Budget. Saturday, March 22, 2014. If I can get my hubby to try a vegetarian entree, I am always very pleased. He is a hard-core carnivore who truly believes he would starve to death if he were to give up meat. So, you can imagine my surprise when at dinner in a small restaurant in Dominical, Costa Rica, he announced, "I think I'll have the lentil burger." (Mind you, there were some meat options on the menu.). Wait, YOU are asking ME to try a vegetarian option? This has got to be something!

Vegetarian on a Budget: Thai one on with a tasty slaw

http://vegetarianonabudget.blogspot.com/2015/01/thai-one-on-with-tasty-slaw.html

Vegetarian on a Budget. Friday, January 30, 2015. Thai one on with a tasty slaw. I am not a raw foods person. Except for an occasional salad meal, I like my meals fully cooked, but this recipe sounded good and I knew that with some tweaks, it would be really good. I added zucchini, red bell pepper and cilantro to the recipe and tweaked the sauce recipe a bit by adding pistachios and a bit of orange juice since the oranges are hanging heavy on our tree in the back yard. This is a hearty entree for a veget...

Vegetarian on a Budget. Tuesday, April 1, 2014. Revving up the hummus. I love hummus. I whip up a batch pretty regularly, so sometimes, I'm a little bored with the same old-same old so I switch things up a bit. I'm trying. Really, I am, to drop the pounds but still eat well. It's a delicate balance. Cardio. Weight training. Clean eating. Apparently those are the key ingredients. At least with this snack, you have a clean option for those late afternoon cravings.or any time. 2 cups of dry chick peas.

Vegetarian on a Budget. Friday, February 13, 2015. Not your average fudge, but you'll be surprised at how good it is. I am, by some people’s definition, a health food nut. My hubby is just the opposite. Left to his own devises, he would eat junk food for every meal…he thinks Trix cereal counts as a serving of fruit. Despite my affinity for healthy food, I still have a persistent sweet tooth. Sometimes even the sweetest, freshest fruit does nothing to calm the cravings for something sweet. Don’t rol...

Vegetarian on a Budget. Friday, January 2, 2015. A Brussels sprout recipe that you will actually like. Brussels sprouts have always gotten a bad rap. Children would rather be sent to bed without supper rather than consume the little cabbages. Adults screw up their faces and shake their heads when they're offered. It's a pretty good bet that people who don't like Brussels spouts have either never actually tried them or ate some that were boiled into a smelly, mushy mess that sat on the plate for hours.

Vegetarian on a Budget: Every day is a festival

http://vegetarianonabudget.blogspot.com/2015/03/every-day-is-festival.html

Vegetarian on a Budget. Monday, March 2, 2015. Every day is a festival. Jamaican Festival Bread is crusty on the outside and airy soft on the inside. The painting in the background is by me and is available for sale at BEACHbumARTS.com. My hubby and I and some other family had a chance to visit Jamaica recently. When I travel, I like to eat the local food and hang out with the locals. In some places, that means small restaurants, in others in means street food. If I’m lucky enough, in. Of course I’...
