Love Chorizo? Try this Meatless Version!

Date: November 16, 2013 / By Nancy Olah

It's fun discovering new products that make my recipes taste even better - and more meat-like. I've written before about Upton's Natural's - a unique brand that is doing amazing work with Seitan.  Seitan is often called "wheat-meat" because it so closely replicates the mouth-feel of meat. When ...

A Meaty Ratatouille Even Julia Child Could Love

Date: October 31, 2013 / By Nancy Olah

We love Ratatouille - that traditional stewed vegetable dish from Provenance. In re-reading Julia Child's recipe tonight, I noted that she suggested serving it with beef or lamb. Since none of my favorite meatless meat companies have yet to figure out how to replicate lamb (hint, hint), I turned to ...

Old Fashioned Stuffed Peppers

Date: September 9, 2013 / By Nancy Olah

Although I already have a great stuffed pepper recipe in Fool a Carnivore (check out Baked Bell Peppers Stuffed with Sausage and Spinach at pp. 69-70), I had a hankering for the more traditional kind of stuffed pepper I remember from childhood. I conferred with Bill and he remembered that rice, ...

Reeved Up Ratatouille

Date: June 30, 2013 / By Nancy Olah

I used alternating ovals of eggplant, red pepper, green zucchini, and golden zucchini to make my newest version of a venerable French classic. My Ratatouille is "reeved up" for two reasons. First, it goes around a little like a race track (doesn't it?). Second, I added LightLife Smart Ground to a ...

Spanish Cooking . . . with a Vegetarian Twist!

Date: March 9, 2013 / By Nancy Olah

I was glad that my four students unanimously asked for Spanish cuisine for our cooking class last Sunday. While I can cook Italian dishes in my sleep, it was definitely a challenge to create some new recipes, research Spanish wines, olives, and cheeses, and learn how to make a delectable flan – ...

Butternut Vegan “Mac ‘n Cheese”

Date: March 3, 2013 / By Nancy Olah

One of the things I love about cooking is that inspiration can come from almost anywhere. Recently, I saw a recipe in PureWow that touted a grown up Mac 'n Cheese made with minimal dairy adapted from a version served by super-chef Jason Neroni, at his LA hotspot, Superba Snack Bar. Neroni used ...

Lasagna

Date: March 16, 2012 / By Nancy Olah

This is the lasagna recipe that is the star of my introduction—the one that gave me the confidence that I really could fool carnivores. When I was putting the finishing touches on this book, I realized that I had never written it down. I have made many versions of lasagna, and can almost make it ...

Baked Chicken, Okra & Tomatoes over Pepper Jack Grits

Date: January 22, 2012 / By Nancy Olah

Pepper Jack Grits are a perfect companion to this delightful dish. For me, okra was a learned taste. However, after thirty years of living in the South, okra has become a vegetable that I associate with great food. I created this recipe as a way of using up a half pound of okra that didn't ...
