3. The American Vegetarian Cookbook from the Fit for Life Kitchen

(Hardcover)

by Marilyn Diamond

This cookbook gives you more than just reicipes. This book gives us who want to be healthy (and who aren’t the greates gourmets) easy and simple menus that are easy to understand, but better yet she explains why she does the things she does, and the principles behind the things she does. It makes it a lot easier for people to stick to a plan when they understand what is going on in their body, and what they can do to prevent some of the everyday aches and pains that are caused by improper food consumption. By no means am I a cook, or a fanatic! But this cookbook makes my life easier and makes it easier to comply with the way I should be feeding my body. Thank you to Marilyn Diamond and harvey Diamond as well as Marilu Henner. I have never said this before, and probably never will again - THIS COOKBOOK COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE and MAKE IT 100% BETTER! I promise.

• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• fresh black pepper
• crushed red pepper, optional to taste
• 1 tablespoon margarine

Directions:

I don’t know how authentic this is, but I whipped it up last night. It tasted great to me. Heat oil on medium high heat. Fry onions until slightly browned. Reduce heat to medium. Add garlic, curry, and paste. Stir and simmer about 2 minutes. Add chick peas, liquid, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Simmer 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add red pepper to taste. Add margarine, stirring through to melt it. Stir and simmer for 5 minutes more or until peas are softened and dish is hot. Serve over rice.

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 2-3 jars of favorite spaghetti sauce
• 1-16 oz bag of spinach leaves
• 2-3 jars of tomato sauce
• 1/2 lb. carrots
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
• 2 cloves minced garlic
• 1/4 cup canned low-sodium veggie broth
• 1 lb. herbed tofu
• 8 oz. vegan cream cheese
• 2 Tblspns. lemon juice
• 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
• 12 lasagna noodles, cooked
• 1/4 cup nutritional yeast, optional

Slice carrots and steam, set aside. Add olive oil to a large skillet, place over medium-high heat until hot. Add parsley and garlic, saute for 1 minute.. Add carrots and veggie broth; simmer uncovered for 5 min. Add herbed tofu, vegan cream cheese, and lemon juice; stir well. Cook over medium heat stirring constantly until fake cheesy stuff starts to melt.Stir in nutmeg (possibly you could add some about 1/4 C. nutritional yeast at this step, just to make it a little bit more cheesy!). Remove from heat; keep warm.

Place 3 lasagna noodles in bottom of 11×7 baking dish. spread carrot mixture over top, place 3 noodles on top of that and spread tomato sauce and spinach on top of those, repeat process until all noodles are used up… top with spaghetti sauce. Cover and bake 15 min. at 375 degrees. Uncover and bake an additional 20-30 min. until it is thoroughly heated… use your own judgment. Usually a lasagna takes about 45 minutes to cook thoroughly. this is the best lasagna i have ever made or had, or non-vegan… it is superb… your non-vegan friends will be wowed!!!!!!!

Serves a lot.

Here is a simply recipe for vegetarian chili:

You could also make bean burritos and perhaps some rice and beans.
