First Vegetarian Meal is a success!!!


You guys will be so proud of me. I found a vegetarian recipe that my husband likes. In our house we call new meals that we like a "do over". This one was definitely a do over! My husband said he was now excited about inviting a vegetarian over! Strangely, it is filled with tons of veggies and I added even more than the recipe called for! Can you believe it! I thought it was really good too. I used gluten free lasagna noodles. They were good for sure but, I am sure not completely like the real thing. (It really has been a long time for me, so my memory is faint)
Admittedly, it was definitely not vegan, but we must crawl before we can walk. Next time, I think I will replace some of the cottage cheese with tofu. I am sure he will never suspect. I might even add some grated zucchini. I will be posting this recipe as an article to my Suite101 column so, stay tuned for that if you are interested.
One of my problems that I am finding is that many recipes that call for veggie meat substitutes often have wheat gluten in them. I am so allergic so, this is definitely not an option for my family. I do have some ideas about other things to try and I will keep you posted as I figure them out.
