While meat can certainly be tasty, sometimes it’s a good idea to take a break in favor of some nutritious alternatives to keep your family healthy. Fortunately, vegetarian cooking can be just as tasty if you have the right ideas. Here are some vegetarian dinner recipes that are sure to satisfy the entire family.

Beans Bourguignon

Instead of a regular beef bourguignon, you can whip up an equally wholesome dish by replacing the meat with some juicy cannellini beans. Add in some flavorful broth, meaty mushrooms, and carrots to create a scrumptious dish that will have you forget all about the missing meat.

Vegan Mac and Cheese

There’s nothing quite like a cheesy, creamy dish of mac and cheese. This ultimate comfort food can be cooked using butternut squash instead of cheese, thereby making it vegan-friendly. What’s more, the cashews will also provide an unexpected twist.

Vegan Tostadas

Using gluten-free corn tortillas and a filling of black beans, walnuts, sweet corn, red bell peppers, and shredded cheese, these vegan tostadas will make you forget all about their meaty alternatives. What’s more, with minimal cooking required, this scrumptious recipe can be prepared in as little as 20 minutes from start to finish.

Kathryne Taylor’s blog, Cookie + Kate, is all about celebrating whole foods. Launched in 2010, it was named after its creator + canine sidekick, a jaunty spotted mutt and chief crumb catcher named Cookie. The two share a house in Kansas City, where Taylor is committed to her blog as a full-time job and Cookie is committed to eating leftovers.

A vegetarian, you can expect health-oriented recipes on Taylor’s blog, as well as simple delights, with recent recipes including a Roasted Cauliflower Steak and a Simple Blueberry Cake. Taylor’s cooking philosophy is one we can get on board with, believing that first and foremost cooking should be fun, and recipes? Flexible.

“I believe in eating whole foods, which are foods that are as close to their source as possible,” writes Talyor on her website. “I’m also an avid supporter of the occasional indulgence, and I laugh with friends over drinks as often as possible.” Promoting real, sustainable food that delights the senses and nourishes the body, her website is the perfect blend of health and indulgence.

“I love coming up with colorful ways to enjoy fresh produce, like this spaghetti squash burrito bowl,” Taylor further expressed in an interview with OKC Veggie. “I also love researching basic recipes to the ends of the internet and trying them over and over to make my own favorite, like my simple marinara sauce.” According to Taylor, the top five ingredients she uses most often are: olive oil, lemon, green onion, garlic, and goat cheese or feta.

As for her eager four-legged assistant, Taylor admits she’s equally excited about food as her mother. “Cookie gets VERY excited about carrots and bananas,” she adds. “I swear that she can hear me pull the vegetable peeler out of the drawer; she comes running! I actually haven’t made a dog-friendly recipe for her, since she’s so thrilled eating carrots and those are good for her!”

You can follow her recipes online or purchase her cookbook Love Real Food at iBooks and Amazon.

Portobello mushrooms are large, meaty mushrooms that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Often adding that umami flavor without the use of animal products, they are particularly useful if you’re a vegan or vegetarian cook. Here are some tasty ways to cook Portobello mushrooms that will give you pleasure time and again.

Baked

For best results, pop the mushrooms onto a greased baking tray, season with salt and pepper, and then drizzle with olive oil. Bake in the oven for around twenty minutes, or until mushrooms become soft. Serve on a bed of rocket lettuce with cheese and tomatoes.

Grilled Burger

Portobello mushrooms can be a great substitute for meat burgers. Before popping them on the grill, add some olive oil, salt, and pepper, and then grill for 7-10 minutes. While they’re cooking, toast the burger buns so they’re nice and crunchy. A great combination is Portobello mushroom with halloumi cheese, lettuce, red onion, tomato, and sweet chili sauce.

Stuffed

With stuffed mushroom recipes you can get really creative. Follow the recipe above for baked mushrooms, but add other ingredients before cooking. Classic taste combinations include sweet peppers, breaded garlic mushrooms, cheese, and bacon.

Vegetables are a crucial component of any balanced diet. It is important to incorporate more vegetables into our daily eating habits. However, this is not always easy as many people think that they don’t really enjoy eating vegetables. While this is understandable if you’re eating unseasoned boiled eggplants and turnips, it doesn’t have to be this way. Vegetables can be really delicious if they’re prepared well. Here are some tips on cooking tasty vegetables.

Say No to Boiling

While boiled vegetables are quick, easy, and can be tasty, this is not the only way of cooking vegetables. Vegetables don’t need to be an afterthought on the side of the plate. There are many creative ways to transform your vegetables from sorry side-dish to the central feature.

Baked or Grilled

Alternative methods of cooking include baking, grilling, and barbequing. You can grill any vegetables and they all come out crispy and lovely. Especially suited to this cooking style are broccoli, eggplants, and peppers.

Always Season

When cooking with vegetables, always add a sprinkle of salt and pepper. If you’re baking or grilling them, toss them in olive oil and season them before cooking. This adds a beautiful burst of flavor.

Cook With Bold Flavors

Delicious vegetable dishes are best when they are organized around bold flavors. These can include bell peppers, red onion, cloves of garlic, or chilis.

Once you bake the crust, you can add pretty much any toppings you want, but Greene’s favorite combo includes sun-dried tomato hummus and some creamy avocado. Judging by the photos on her blog, this veggie pizza looks like a true culinary masterpiece, and we encourage you to give it a try!

  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the hummus, flour and olive oil and form a crust with the dough.
  3. Spread the dough out on top of a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  4. Bake for about 15-20 mins until cooked through.
  5. While the crust is baking, make the sun-dried tomato hummus.
  6. Place garbanzo beans, garlic, lemon juice, Tahini, olive oil, sun-dried tomatoes, water, salt, pepper, basil and water in a food processor and process until smooth. (If it needs more water add it in and process more.)

Vegetables are a crucial component of any balanced diet. It is important to incorporate more vegetables into our daily eating habits. However, this is not always easy as many people think that they don’t really enjoy eating vegetables. While this is understandable if you’re eating unseasoned boiled eggplants and turnips, it doesn’t have to be this way. Vegetables can be really delicious if they’re prepared well. Here are some tips on cooking tasty vegetables.

Say No to Boiling

While boiled vegetables are quick, easy, and can be tasty, this is not the only way of cooking vegetables. Vegetables don’t need to be an afterthought on the side of the plate. There are many creative ways to transform your vegetables from sorry side-dish to the central feature.

Baked or Grilled

Alternative methods of cooking include baking, grilling, and barbequing. You can grill any vegetables and they all come out crispy and lovely. Especially suited to this cooking style are broccoli, eggplants, and peppers.

Always Season

When cooking with vegetables, always add a sprinkle of salt and pepper. If you’re baking or grilling them, toss them in olive oil and season them before cooking. This adds a beautiful burst of flavor.

Cook With Bold Flavors

Delicious vegetable dishes are best when they are organized around bold flavors. These can include bell peppers, red onion, cloves of garlic, or chilis.

When it comes to pizza crust, most of us stick to old classics, but we’ve got the perfect recipe for everyone in the mood for trying something a little bit different. Caitlin Greene of Star Infinite Food shared a recipe for mouth-watering beet falafel crust that only requires three ingredients!

Once you bake the crust, you can add pretty much any toppings you want, but Greene’s favorite combo includes sun-dried tomato hummus and some creamy avocado. Judging by the photos on her blog, this veggie pizza looks like a true culinary masterpiece, and we encourage you to give it a try!

Ingredients:

Pizza Crust:

  • 1 Cup beet hummus
  • 1 Cup cassava flour
  • 1/4 Cup olive oil

Sun-Dried Tomato Hummus:

  • 1 can garbanzo beans (salt-free and skins removed)
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons tahini
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil
  • 2-3 tablespoons of water
  • Salt/pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup of water

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the hummus, flour and olive oil and form a crust with the dough.
  3. Spread the dough out on top of a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  4. Bake for about 15-20 mins until cooked through.
  5. While the crust is baking, make the sun-dried tomato hummus.
  6. Place garbanzo beans, garlic, lemon juice, Tahini, olive oil, sun-dried tomatoes, water, salt, pepper, basil and water in a food processor and process until smooth. (If it needs more water add it in and process more.)
  7. When the crust is done, allow to cool then top with hummus, avocado, veggies, and a Tahini drizzle.

Set the oven to 450 F degrees.

Get a pan and cook the oil, onion, red pepper flakes, mushrooms, asparagus, and garlic together. After 20 minutes you can add the tomatoes.

Continue cooking for 7 to 10 minutes. When the tomatoes are soft you can take out the vegetable from the pan.

Pour the wine in the pan and let it simmer for 2 to 3 minutes on the stove. One half of the wine should evaporate.

While you’re waiting you can start cooking the pasta. Follow the instructions on the packaging. Remove one half of the pasta water and keep the other half.

Add the water to the wine and pour the pasta as well. You can now combine the pasta with the vegetables and cook it for a few minutes on medium-low heat.
