Since it's the start of the holidays and we are cooking for many different people, I thought you might like these tips for vegitarians. Tips People don't like to make a big deal about being vegetarian. Cook a dish for a vegetarian that you would eat, like pasta or vegetable stir fry. Every once in a while you can go crazy and make tofu platters or meatless meat loaf. Tofu is a very popular food for vegetarians. Known as the culinary chameleon, tofu takes on the flavor of whatever modifiers you are using, whether it's teriyaki sauce, barbeque sauce or a handful of spices. It can be grilled, baked, sauteed, fried or eaten raw. (look on the internet) Meat alternatives are easy to find in grocery stores and loved by vegetarians. Unfortunately, they are expensive. Bacon, lunch meat, hamburger and chicken patties--all of these favorites are available in meat-free form. Don't confuse "veggie lovers" or "veggie" with vegetarian. Many foods say they are for veggie lovers, but this does not mean they are made for a vegetarian! For example, there are two kinds of vegetable soup on the market. One is just plain vegetable soup, which usually contains chicken stock. The other is vegetarian's vegetable soup, which is free of meat products. Hope these help It's always an adventure to cook for people who don't share your tastes. Please give us any of your ideas.
