Butternut Squash Chili in a Crock Pot

I love when I find a recipe that my husband enjoys without commenting on the lack of meat protein.  I was surprised to find out that this was one of them.  As far as I know he’s not a big fan of squash but he happily ate this meal including a second helping as well [ READ MORE ]

5 more questions

This seemed to be a hit last week so I decided to go for round 2.  Feel free to answer on my blog or at Vegetarilin on Facebook. 1. What is your favorite source of protein? I love tofu.  It’s so versatile and soaks up the flavor of whatever you cook it with. 2. What’s your [ READ MORE ]

5 Questions

I recently saw this on an RV blog I read and found the questions and answers very interesting.  I was thinking about the questions people usually ask me about being a vegetarian as well as my own personal thoughts on the subject.  I’d love to see what you thoughts are on the subject. 1. What’s [ READ MORE ]

Vegetarian Dogs

I just stumbled upon this article and found it interesting.  Awhile ago I decided not to force my dogs to live my vegetarian choice and kept them on their regular low fat kibble.  However, my pit mix Casey has been having some skin issues which are not terrible but aren’t going away after visits with [ READ MORE ]

Vegetarian Pad Thai

Have you ever tried finding a recipe for a decent vegetarian pad thai? The results are dismal at best.  Several recipes call for the traditional fish sauce.  Fish is not a vegetable, it is not vegetarian, nor is their sauce.  I saw a recipe that was considered veg but had shrimp in it.  There we [ READ MORE ]

Eating Lions

I am very perplexed by the recent uproar regarding an Arizona restaurant serving lion meat.  This restaurant owner decided that the best way to honor FIFA’s World Cup location was to serve Lion Burgers!  Poor lion, how did it get caught up in the middle of all of this.  How is eating an animal paying [ READ MORE ]

Coke Products Vegetarian?

I actually don’t remember what I was viewing online that made me question if Coke products are vegetarian or not but I had a moment of concern.  I have to admit while working towards a healthier diet with less and less processed ingredients Caffeine Free Diet Coke is still a guilty pleasure.  I’ve greatly reduced [ READ MORE ]

Great Smoky Mountains

So tonight is our last night of camping in our rented 5th wheel.  Overall it’s been really fun vacation.  My hubby and I have really enjoyed each other’s company and have gone outside our usual comfort zones.  We’ve hiked many trails within the Smoky Mountain National Park.  There are many great scenic drives and destinations.

I’ll be off to Gatlinburg Tn early Saturday morning.  My hubby and I will be renting a 5th wheel and staying at a campground at the base of the Smokey Mountains.  It is our goal to one day own a 5th wheel and travel the country.  I am very interested in seeing how the RV [ READ MORE ]

Jonathan Safran Foer on Ellen Degeneres

I read the book Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer momentarily wondered why I was bothering.  I mean, I’m already convinced that eating a vegetarian diet is the best choice so why bother?  Well, it turns out that his book had a ton of interesting info that I didn’t know about.  He also presented all [ READ MORE ]

Lentil Barley Soup

I actually made this recipe about a week ago when it was quite cold in Florida.  I was looking for a recipe that would warm us up while being hearty and filling.  I ended up taking a few components from several different recipes and created my own.  It came out very well and will absolutely [ READ MORE ]

Pasta with Peas

My New Year’s Eve gathering consisted of just myself, my husband and our 3 dogs.  Our dog Rocki is absolutely terrified of the loud noise brought on by fireworks during many holidays.  Thus we spent our evening watching movies and comforting her.  I decided to make a simple pasta dinner for myself that paired well [ READ MORE ]

Meatless Monday Rant

  • Posted in Veg Info

I am really tired of going to restaurants and having them look at me like I’m a freak when I ask for a vegetarian option.  It seems like it would be a no brainer to put one or two vegetarian selections on a menu or even have a meat dish with an advertised available meatless [ READ MORE ]

Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms

The other day I watched a cooking show where Stuffed Mushrooms were made using sausage.  I watched it and thought how ridiculous to take a simple low fat item and ruin it with all that animal fat.  With that said, the recipe intrigued me and I wanted to figure out a way to make this [ READ MORE ]
