I was going to surprise MamaG and call in on her when I was next passing and just wondered what she might dish up for the bears for dinner. We are carnivorous us bears but not adverse to a veggie option but I was thinking that it might be difficult to be inspired for dinner ideas, that's all. I should have know the MNers would be inspirational vegetarians and I look forward to popping round MamaG's to sample some dishes!

I'll call you later with some dates MamaG ok luv? FAB

Not fully veggie, but most of the time anyway:
Butternut curry with ginger, coconut milk, brocolli etc. (butternut squash and coconut milk is one of the yummiest things in the world: recipe for soup;
Quorn burger with salad and curly fries;
Pasta with tomato sauce, brocolli, spinach (need iron combined with Vit c in tomato to prevent anemia);
Chilli made with lots of different types of beans: red kidney, borlotti, other beans in tins.
Lots of baked beans on toast, as it's well tasty

KBear, its only me thats a veggie, DH and the LittleGs aren't.

Call in next time you are passing, do, when is it - are you goin to scotland this year? Or somewhere else? Don't think you've mentioned it....!

hardy har har

you are safe for another year!

Veggie chilli:
Chop and fry onion, garlic and peppers (green, red, yellow, what ever) until soft. Add in some chilli powder. Then stir in can of tomatoes. Bring to boil, then reduce to bubbling for about 20 minutes or so (can use this time to cook rice). Add can/2 of beans (having drained and rinsed them. Red kidney beans are good, but others work too). Bring back to boil. Season, maybe add in more chilli powder. Serve with rice, guacamole, salsa ... whatever takes you fancy. The cafeteria at work adds in tons of other vegetables as well, like brocolli, carrots, whatever is around.
