Kashmiri Starter Recipes

From Salad In A Jar: http://bit.ly/fqfw0g I make this all the time and it is great! Wanted to input it so that I could get an accurate calorie count per serving. The next time I make it, I will weigh it out in servings and edit the serving size.

We put a California spin on a classic Italian salad. It's the perfect light lunch or starter.

This scrumptious bread is best when shared with friends, bake in mini foil bread pans and hand out with bags of the starter.

Chili

Great vegetarian alternative.

You can replace with your favorite vegetables; these are just what I happened to have in the fridge :)

Delicious and super low calorie vegetable soup. I make a big pot and eat the leftovers for lunch all week.

THIS RECIPE IS UNBELIEVABLE!

Cabbage soup, I love this and it fills me up before my meal

Serve on whole-wheat buns with plenty of veggies, and you'll have a BBQ meal that even a meat lover will crave again and again.

This recipe is so good my family (NON-VEGANS and NON-VEGETARIANS) request it for parties!

This is a great soup for a cold day. Goes great as a starter course but is also hearty enough to hold its own at lunch.

This chilled creamy soup is great for hot days. It is filling and low in calories. Perfect for a light lunch or as a dinner starter.

This dip/spread makes a nice change from the usual hummous or guacamole. When in temple mode I like to eat it spread it on rice cakes to give eating bread and butter a rest. Makes a nice starter with homemade flat bread served together with good quality olives.

This is an easy recipe that a cook of any level can put together. You can either buy all fresh vegetables and cut them yourself or buy them pre-packaged and just throw them in the pot. I love soup in the fall and this is a great starter soup to get your fall started healthy. Enjoy!!

quick and easy, even from frozen, this taco meat can be used for tacos, taco salads, chicken burritos, and much more.

This is a go-to meal starter for me, when I've forgotten to plan for dinner, I will serve this as one of those meals above. I use the chicken breast tenderloins, put them in the pan frozen, cover and turn the eye on really low to let them quick-thaw.

Use the amount of seasoning and water your taco seasoning calls for for one pound of meat, if you like your meat spicier add more seasoning (adjust the water accordingly) or add a second can of rotel or a can of diced green chilis.

This single serving quick mini-meal is one of my little creations. Its great if your in a hurry but want something fun and even a little exotic you could say! It can be the main course in a lunch, or even a side for a creative dinner. Its even filling as a snack. I checked around and cheese seems to be considered vegetarian. I used basic ingredients so anyone can get ahold of them. I do suggest that if you have time you can throw in the fresh versions in an amount to your taste preference. Also you can use whatever type of sweetener for the sauce you like, however I use calorie free sweetener. Its a great starter recipe if you want to add your own variations too. (lacto-vegetarian)
