Adventures in Vegetarianism
by Alice Osborne

(Our ideas and recipes come from one of our favorite vegetarian websites, which is the site of the Vegetarian Resource Group, a group of registered dieticians and physicians dedicated to providing the truth as well as great advice on eating the vegetarian way. And, the Cook'n Vegetarian CD is also another great resource for vegetarian recipes.)

Here’s an incredibly good recipe using tomatoes. In a few more weeks we could easily be enjoying fresh garden tomatoes, which will make this dish extra delicious!

BROILED TOMATOES

3 large tomatoes
2 Tbsp plain yogurt or sour cream
¼ C Parmesan cheese (any grated cheese will work well)
3 Tbsp chopped parsley
1 tsp Spike seasoning or dash sea salt
Dash cayenne pepper
Dash garlic powder (NOT garlic salt)
¼ C toasted wheat germ (optional)


Slice tomatoes in 1” thick slices. Place in a layer on a lightly oiled cookie sheet or large baking pan. Mix rest of ingredients and sprinkle over each slice of tomato. Broil for a couple minutes ‘til lightly browned. These are great on veggie sandwiches or atop any zucchini casserole. 6-8 servings.

And in case you’d like to try these tomatoes atop a zucchini casserole, we have just the ticket!

ZUCCHINI BAKE

2 sliced yellow squash
5 zucchinis sliced (zucchini are best when about an inch in diameter)
1 chopped onion
1 minced clove of garlic
3 chopped stalks of celery
3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
½ C fresh chopped parsley (or dried equivalent)
2 tsp Spike seasoning, Vegit, or 1 tsp sea salt
Dash cayenne pepper
2 tsp Italian seasoning or oregano
½ C plain yogurt or sour cream
3 Tbsp arrowroot powder misted with a little water
3 eggs, beaten slightly (or egg substitute)
½ C mashed tofu, kefir, or cottage cheese
1 C grated Swiss cheese
1 C grated parmesan cheese


Saute onions, minced garlic and celery in oil for 2 min. Add yogurt, tofu, eggs, and ½ C grated cheese, stirring constantly. Add arrowroot mixture, parsley and seasonings. Cut zucchini in half lengthwise. Place in baking dish (size depends on size of zucchini) and top with slices of yellow squash and prepared mixture. Top with remaining grated cheeses. Bake at 350 for 45 min. Serve with broiled tomatoes on top, if desired. Servings depends on size of zucchini, but if using the small zucchini, this serves 4-6.
