Simple Vegetarian Recipes for All Meals

Going vegetarian offers a variety of health and environmental benefits.  Not only does eating vegetarian put less strain upon the planet, it has the potential of helping individuals achieve a more balanced lifestyle and more ideal weight.  Simple vegetarian recipes can be incorporated into any meal, making prep easy and quick.  Here are some recipes anyone can prepare with a minimum of fuss.

Breakfast Burritos

Cook up some potatoes, cut them up and mix with some wilted spinach and onions.  Place in a sprouted grain tortilla.  Top with some shredded cheese and/or sour cream.

Another alternative on this theme involves cutting up some tofu and frying it with onions, tomatoes, and peppers.  Top as you like, perhaps splashing on a bit of Tabasco sauce for heat and again, wrap in a sprouted grain tortilla.

Breakfast burritos are particularly useful because you can make up a large batch, freeze some and eat them over a period of time.  They are a great meal to grab on the go and with a salad, make an excellent quick lunch as well.

Lunch beyond salads

Quiche clearly requires you to be an ova-lacto vegetarian.  If this fits your bill, quiche has the advantage of being kitchen Velcro – meaning anything sticks to it well. 

Start with your basics, a pie crust or a well oiled large muffin tin.  Mix 4 eggs to 1 cup of milk – whole milk works best.  Now, gather everything in your fridge that you think will go well together.  This is the perfect way to finish up leftover bits of this and that. 

Toss those bits into the pie shell or the muffin tins.  You can top with a bit of shredded cheese.  Pour on the milk and egg mixture leaving a bit of room at the top for expansion during cooking.  Bake until the mixture solidifies.

Sandwiches are traditional lunch food and removing the cold cuts is easy.  My favorite is avocado, arugula, and tomato on sprouted grain bread with sea salt and plenty of freshly ground pepper.  For a wrap I spread some raw almond butter on a tortilla, slice on some banana and a bit of ground flax seed.  When I include a bunch of cut vegetables and some herbal ice tea, I have a great lunch with little fuss.

Dinner time Delight

I like quick dinners.  By the time I get home after work the last thing I want to do is start some serious cooking.  To accomplish that, I spend a bit of time with my groceries over the weekend.  I prepare greens in advance, washing, drying, and tearing them so they are easy to throw in a pan or in soups or salads when I need them.  I wash and cut fruits that store well in the fridge as well.

A really quick and easy dinner is quinoa and greens.  Quinoa is the only grain that offers a complete protein.  It cooks up in 20 minutes and leftovers make a great breakfast with some milk and berries.  Once I have my quinoa cooking, I toss some greens in a sauté pan with a bit of olive oil.  I wilt the greens, toss in some garlic, a bit of red pepper and salt.  When they are cooked, I put them on my quinoa and I'm ready to eat.

During the cold months I will use my slow cooker a lot, making soups and stews that take a few minutes of prep.  Recipes are available online for a variety of such dishes.  Corn chowder or lentil soup with some fresh bread is the perfect midwinter meal and requires little by way of work.

When your hands are full, covered in cookie batter or otherwise unavailable, all of the in-recipe commands can be given by speaking to the DS microphone. The keyword search function uses handwriting recognition, so you can simply write out that you're looking for a "sweet" something. Finally, that same handwriting recognition is used to make notes on recipes. If you want to remember to reduce the salt, or simply that this recipe was especially tasty, the software takes the same role as the handwritten note in a cookbook.

Description

Jamie Oliver (The Naked Chef) knows the best places to buy food in London. In this DVD, Oliver's Twist, Jamie takes us to his favorite stores, and then it's back to his place to cook up fantastic food for family and friends. In Jamie's unique style he gives culinary advice and great tips as he grills, grinds, roasts and fries. And with food on the table, let the good times roll! This DVD contains 7 classic episodes from his Oliver's Twist TV series as seen on the Food Network. "I think that the show's success is down to me being me - an ordinary bloke who's just passionate about good food - and people can relate to that. Even now, blokes who've never done more than open a packet come up to me and tell me that they've started cooking. That's the best result ever as all I ever wanted to do was to make food accessible to everyone; to show that you can make mistakes - I do all the time - but it doesn't matter." -Jamie Oliver EPISODES 1) World Cup Breakfast: After a big night out what better way for Jamie and his mates to recover than a morning watching soccer with a full Oliver breakfast. 2) Scarlet Division: Jamie drums up some vegetarian tukka as he gets together with his band for a jamming session. 3) The Bill: When Jamie pays a visit to his mates on the set of The Bill, three cops are delighted to accept his invitation to dinner. 4) Wild City: Horseradish outside your house? Rocket by the roadside? Jamie and his mentor Gennaro show how, even in the middle of a city, Mother Nature does provide. 5) Tiger: Jamie's grandmother, Tiger, and her friends are in London for a day out, so Jamie invites them over for afternoon tea. 6) Bollywood: Jamie goes Indian as he hosts a Bollywood night with all the trimmings. 7) Chocolate: As a bribe for babysitting Poppy, Jamie offers the girls the one thing they can't resist chocolate, and lots of it.

One could do worse than be a part of Jamie Oliver's life. His daughter's babysitters are treated to the young chef's gourmet-chocolate tiramisu, his hard-partying mates drag themselves to morning-after fry-up feasts and Bloody Mary pitchers, and his band (London's Scarlet Division) fill up on exquisite vegetarian cuisine. This collection of seven Oliver's Twist episodes, originally broadcast in America on the Food Network, are enormous fun, grounded in the gregarious star's daily life of family, friends, mentors, suppliers--even the local cops. Absolutely everyone parades through Oliver's surprisingly modest kitchen to dine on lovingly prepared masterworks fusing tradition with improvisational brilliance. Whether the menu calls for high tea, a Bollywood theme night, or a gorgeous health-food breakfast, Oliver's affection for his work and his people makes for addictive viewing. --Tom Keogh
