I am a vegetarian (lacto-ovo, so I eat dairy and occasionally eggs). I have many ideas and meals that I have been eating over the years but looking for others to swap. I particularly love cooking with beans and grains as they seem to be most filling. Anyone have some new ideas??

Thanks!

    Go buy The Veganomicon.
    It is, by far, the best vegan cookbook I have ever used. The recipes are amazing, easy, and obviously focus on using beans, grains, and other such because it's a vegan cookbook.
    Seriously, go buy it....like now...before you even finish reading this reply.

    I recently got in to lentils. Very filling and there's different ways to use them. If I find a good recipe I'll start a "Veggie Recipe Swap" thread or something in the Recipes section.

    I have recently been eating a bunch of summer squash, zucchini, yellow, summer and tablequeen! I had a little of each and did not want to waste, so I got out the old Mandolin and very thinly sliced up all I had mixed it up and sauteed it in EVO tossed in some sweet basil, a bit of salt and served as a side dish. it was really good. the basil just added a sweet taste that married all of it! Probably not gourmet vegetarian, but I really enjoyed it!

    I LOVE Vegweb.com and fatfreevegan.com. I am a Vegetarian/ transitioning vegan. I love to cook and these sites have made it easy to stay out of the fast food joints...
