Vegetable Meat Recipes

This is one of my favorites dishes since I was a little girl. I remember both my grandmother and mother making this recipe. Smelling the strong smells of the spices and rich flavors brings back memories everytime I make this dish with my family. Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do :-)

This is an adjustment to an original recipe that I am used to having since I was a little girl.Having a family now, we value our families nutritional intake as well as flavors in which we can enjoy.This recipe is for that wish to enjoy the rich flavors without worrying about paying for it later :-)

Savory vegetables, chicken and cheese baked inside a biscuit crust. The crust is topped with parsley and Parmesan cheese.

A friend who is a rabbi taught us how to make this dish. He learned from a friend from Saudi Arabia.

This recipe is the first time our family has tried making lasagna from scratch. Can't remember what magazine we pulled it from. Ended up swapping one of the jars of sauce for a "meat flavored" one for personal taste reasons, but feel free to not use that and keep it strictly vegetarian.

Low Carb breakfast

Originally a vegetarian lasagna recipe, we added meat and some extra cheese to suit our taste. Recipe includes those additions with notes on how to revert back to vegetarian.

Low calorie and low sodium soup

This is a basic meat sauce but I hid some vegetables in it to fool the teenager.

Easy pasta dinner in less than an hour.

Delicious and healthy alternative to traditional meatloaf!

Just a quick vegan style vegetable soup.

This hearty chili is great any time of year and is fresh. Serve it with shredded lettuce, cilantro, avocado and lime. I ALWAYS use dried beans, but my measurements call for cooked (except lentils). Always season to YOUR taste. My measurements are only recommendations.

Instead of potatoes we are using rice and not a lot of salt in this either!

My husband makes this all the time and adds chicken, or shrimp, or whatever we have around... just be sure to add that to the nutritional info!

Serve with a roll or toast for a hearty meal.

Fast and easy, for those days...

Homemade soup with deer, beef, and pork!!!!

Costa Ricans LOVE picadillo!! It's a great dish to get some extra veggies, and if you want to lower the carb count, you can use just half a potato or skip the potato and add some extra carrots and green beans instead, or even better, chayote!
250 g Chayote has about 50 calories and less than 10g carbohidrates, so it's a great option :)

At the end of the summer we often use fresh vegetables from our garden to make soup by the bulk for freezing and enjoy it all winter.

I'm trying to get more nutrition into my diet so I've added as many vegetables as possible into my diet and I've added rice rather than oatmeal as the binder. I was pleased with the way this turned out

Made with whatever meat and vegetables are in the fridge. Usually shrimp.
