Recipes for National Vegetarian Month
Last week, we celebrated National Vegetarian Month with a list of some restaurants in the area that serve some tasty vegetarian dishes. But we know you can’t eat out all the time, so we’ve gathered together some delicious vegetarian recipes that you can make at home in your Canyon Park apartment in Puyallup, WA. These recipes and their descriptions are from Allrecipes.com.
Chef John’s Meatless Meatballs
"I made this recipe to celebrate Earth Day. Thanks to a thorough browning, mushrooms provide more than enough savoriness. The garlic, cheese, and parsley do the rest. What really blew me away was how close the texture was to actual meatballs. They are officially approved for use on spaghetti!"
"This savory side dish or vegetarian main dish is made with butternut squash and accented with fresh thyme and blue cheese."
"I created this recipe from looking at a few different ones online and choosing my favorite aspects of each. This is vegetarian but there are many bibimbap recipes with beef or chicken marinades, if you want to add beef or chicken to this dish."
Black Bean and Rice Enchiladas
"These vegetarian black bean and rice enchiladas are just as satisfying as those served in restaurants."
"I found this savory loaf recipe in the Alsace region of France. It is wonderfully moist, and because of the density of the veggie mixture, it doesn't rise too much. So be sure to pour all of the batter into the pan. You can add or substitute other veggies of your choice. And enjoy!"
"A delicious and easy appetizer. The balsamic vinegar gives it a little bite. Dried basil can be substituted but it is best with fresh."
