Technically this is a crustless quiche, but the addition of flour makes for a delicious crusty bottom and sides.

Cookbook creator says: I am slowly and somewhat unintentionally turning into a vegetarian. I will probably never be a full vegetarian, but some days, I just don't really want any meat (except maybe fish). This cookbook is for those days.

These burgers are spiced to perfection. To make them even spicier, you could melt jalapeno soy cheese on each patty and serve topped with salsa.

This vegetarian main dish is cholesterol-free, virtually fat-free, and chock full of vegetables.

These burgers are rich and meaty, the kind of burger that vegetarians have been craving. Even meat eaters will appreciate these tasty and fiber-rich burgers.

During a trip to the Turkish coast, my friends and I gobbled down vegetarian bulgur "meatballs," called yalanci cig kofte. "Yalanci" means liar because the bulgur and potatoes are used instead of raw meat, as in the original recipe.

This is one of my family's favorite dishes! This can be served over polenta or rice, and of course makes a great taco filling. You can also make it into more of a stew by combining it with diced tomatoes. You can adjust the spices to taste--the recipe is calculated using standard chili powder, but if you make your own (salt-free) blend and use no salt added tomatoes, you can make a low sodium version!
