I run a food blog and regularly include vegetarian recipes. Here's a good one - Broccoli-Stuffed Portabello Mushrooms with Dijon-Cheddar Sauce http://ericasrecipes.com/2014/07/broccoli-stuffed-portabello-mushrooms-dijon-cheddar-sauce/0

Vegetarian sweet and sour meatballs. Every meat eater I've made this for has loved it.

Last night I made a slow cooker veggie chili for 153 calories per fl. cup. It made exactly 9 cups.
540 ml can of chickpeas (rinsed)
540 ml can of kidney beans (rinsed)
796 ml can of stewed, diced tomatoes (and they have several flavours, I think mine might have just been the garlic ones) with the juice.
1 cup of low sodium veggie broth
1 cup salsa
284 ml can of sliced mushrooms (next time I'll put in two! - Drained).
3 tbsp. of chili powder
about 1/2 tsp of garlic powder
150 g of cut frozen green beans
150 g chopped baby carrots.
Just dumped and stirred it all in the slow cooker, set to low (good for 6 - 8 hours but since there's no meat, I assume it would be fine for longer) and voila! It was quite nice! And so easy to customize for your preferences!0 -
For lowcal meals, Fatfree Vegan Kitchen is my first stop. http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/recipe-index0

This is my very favorite vegetarian recipe, you can use lowfat or nonfat mayo, or veganaise, whatever you want. It's SO delicious!

I like the Oh She Glows website and cookbook. These "breakfast cookies" are yummy! She limits soy and wheat in her recipes which I highly appreciate. ohsheglows.com/2012/01/10/oh-mega-carrot-cake-breakfast-cookies-superfood-green-monster/
I also like the Forks Over Knives (plant-based wholefoods) cookbook. The Thai vegetable soup (subbing in broccoli and bamboo shoots) is AMAZING served with quinoa or rice. Amazon has a stroganoff recipe posted for free right now from this cookbook. amazon.com/Forks-Over-Knives-Cookbook-Plant-Based/dp/1615190619#reader_1615190619
I have heard good things about this cookbook, but have yet to try any of their recipes. It is Gwyneth Paltrow's book (I think) amazon.com/Thug-Kitchen-Official-Cookbook-Like/dp/1623363586/ref=pd_sim_b_4/180-6365054-1381663?ie=UTF8&refRID=16HERMJNFZJ1EAVK6YE2
Happy recipe hunting... :-)0
