Weekly Vegetarian Menu #2 – 5 Easy Vegetarian Dinners

I've been in Yosemite most of this week, and so haven't been able to complete photography on a couple of new recipes I want to bring to you. In the meantime, here's another Weekly Vegetarian Menu of dinner ideas for the next week. If your week next week looks as busy as mine promises to be, you won't always have the time you'd like to cook up something healthy. I get it. In answer to that, this selection is focused on easy dinners! As I mentioned last week, I scour blogs I enjoy for recipes I ...

Easy Summer Tomato Tart with Artichoke Spread

Easy Summer Tomato Tart with Artichoke Spread

"Are you saving this pizza for me?" My husband had been out of town on a quick trip with a friend to San Diego, and plopped his suitcase on a chair before wandering into the kitchen. He eyed me hopefully - with the I-think-I'm-starving-and-I-might-die look. "It's a tart, and you don't even really like tomatoes!" It was true, and I had been hoping to have this gorgeous little tart all to myself. All of it. Every last crumb. But somewhere in there, he heard a "Yes, honey! Please help yourself!" ...

Baked Artichoke Risotto with Radicchio

Creamy baked artichoke risotto casserole loaded with artichokes and radicchio, topped with lemon-caper breadcrumbs...for the Food Network #ComfortFoodFeast. We're back! The Food Network's #FallFest is now done, and we start a new series called #ComfortFoodFeast as we bundle up by the fire for the cold nights of winter. Risotto is a demanding mistress, but some nights it fits my mood. I add a cup of hot broth to toasted Arborio rice, and relax into a meditation of stirring, attention ...

Quinoa Tabbouleh Stuffed Artichokes

Quinoa Tabbouleh Stuffed Artichokes

Gluten-free, vegan dish of artichokes stuffed with tabbouleh made with quinoa, parsley, mint, and cucumber.   To my mother, adventurous cooking meant scrupulously following a recipe in her dog-eared Mama Leone’s Italian Cookbook for veal scallopini. “It  involves cooking with real sherry,” she told us, feeling so 1960s hip. But most dinners in our house were a rotation of roast chicken, grilled steak, pasta, with an occasional stuffed pork chop. Really good food, but a bit ...

Artichoke Dip with Manchego Cheese

Easy artichoke dip of artichoke hearts and manchego cheese for any casual party. Bonus: make it in 10 minutes! It's all about tapas this week on #SundaySupper. Tapas are appetizers, finger food, or small plates that are shared, all perfect for watching football or just gathering with friends. Many thanks to Constance at the Foodie Army Wife for hosting us this week. I could have gone all complicated with something tasty but requiring 10,000 steps, but in the interest of simplifying my ...

Springtime Asparagus Egg Bake with Artichokes and Potatoes

Springtime Asparagus Egg Bake with Artichokes and Potatoes

Soft fluffy egg bake loaded with asparagus, leeks and potatoes, topped with artichokes. Spring has moved into the Bay Area and unpacked all her suitcases full of flowering trees, daffodils, crocuses, and leafing rose bushes. She's planning to stay for awhile. We have a long tangle of wisteria that frames the front of the house, loaded with large fuzzy oval buds about to burst open with a spill of purple flowers, which I impatiently wait for every year. Spring drama on a twig. But ...

I'm a mostly vegetarian married to a mostly carnivore and am on a constant hunt for healthy, delicious recipes we'll both like. Most recipes here are vegetarian with tips for adding meat or fish for the meat-eaters at the table. Whether you're vegetarian, or just wanting to eat less meat, I hope you'll find inspiration here to try something new for your own table, even if you're sharing it with someone with different eating preferences.
