Recipe: Italian Meatballs

Last week, I had an idea to make some italian meatballs on pasta and, although they turned out a little like hamburgers, they tasted quite good and I reckon worthy of putting up. Not only can these meatballs be used in this dish, but tried on their own as a burger. They’ve got a little [...]

Recipe: Black Bean Stir Fry Noodles

I was debating whether to post this recipe or not, as the photo itself is not the best.  What I’ve noticed is that I haven’t been able to take a good photo of noodles ever.  No matter what I do they never turn out!  However, it doesn’t mean that it lacks in the flavour!
What I [...]

Recipe: Vegetarian Bangers with Rosemary & Thyme Gravy

With all the types of mock meats on the market, no vegetarian (or vegan for that matter) has to miss out! These little sausages are made with the Sanitarium brand in Australia, but I’m sure you can find your alternative sausage wherever you come from! I certainly have found alternatives whilst visiting in [...]

Recipe: Vegetarian Chicken-Style Curry

As I’ve mentioned before my mum’s side is from Sri Lanka and we’re used to eating curries and spicy foods. One thing I used to be particularly fond of was my nan’s Chicken Curry. Unfortunately, she got Alzheimer’s before passing the recipe on and I was left without my favourite curry.
Being vegetarian has [...]

Recipe: Firey Red Pepper & Arugula Pesto Cannelloni

(Served with a little rocket/arugula, leftover roasted pepper
and dressing of white balsamic vinegar and a good extra virgin oil.)
This week I’ve got an extra special recipe to coincide with Fatfree Vegan Kitchen’s Vegetable Love 2008 competiton. I’ve been concocting this recipe in my head for a couple of days, tweaking the flavours, [...]

Recipes: Vegetarian-style BLT

This light and quick snack for lunch is a great vegetarian option of the traditional BLT (Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato). I’ve placed a few optional steps in here, which are tried and tested. They are great additions, but this photographed version is a simple version with the use of a parmesan-topped roll.
Serves:
One
Ingredients:

1/2 tsp [...]

Recipe: Vegetarian Kofta Kebabs

updated: This has just been awarded the weekly winner of the Golden Gnome award for “Best Main Course” on Make Me Hungry’s flickr group. View here.

Melbourne’s been extremely hot lately and, no one, I’m sure feels like cooking in this type of heat! It’s not the fact that it’s thirty-seven degrees, but the [...]

Recipe: Stuffed Macadamia, Peach & Shitake Vegie Roast

What a treat I have for you today! This delightful stuffed vegetarian roast has a combination of flavours that don’t outplay each other. Although, I didn’t have this as a special occasion, I already think this would be ideal as a Christmas luncheon coming up or what about Easter Sunday or Thanksgiving for [...]

Recipe: Tandoori Tofu Burger

The great thing about these tandoori tofu burgers are that they are high in protein and low in calories per burger! At only 86 calories per burger, you could easily have two at lunch in a roll and still be under your calorie limit on a 1200 calorie per day diet.
These little burgers are [...]

Recipe: Braised Tofu with Rice Noodles

I was watching the Food Channel which inspired me to make this dish with shitakes. Although this is nothing like the meal they were making, as it was a meat dish but the sauce was a dark brown shitake sauce.
At the start of coming up with this, I did want to make the stock [...]
