here are 3 of my favorite vegatarian recipes!
.................................
POTATO-VEGETABLE CHOWDER (Serves 8)
A thick and glorious soup that welcomes the substitutions of a
creative cook. Produce a chowder as thick or thin as desired by
adjusting the liquid.
5 cups vegetable broth (water is fine, but
not as tasty)
1 cup tomato or vegetable juice
1 cup peeled tomatoes, cut in small pieces
1 cup carrots, chopped
1 cup green beans or yellow wax beans
1 cup onions, finely chopped
1 cup zucchin or yellow squash, thinly sliced
1 cup leek, chopped
2 cups unpeeled red potatoes, diced
1 cheesecloth bag of fresh herbs of choice
(parsley, basil, etc.)
2 teaspoons salt
Bring liquid to boil in a deep soup kettle. Add all vegetables
and seasonings. Turn down heat to simmer and partially cover the
pot. Simmer until vegetables are tender. Serve hot with crusty
whole wheat bread and a light fruit dessert.
Variation: Almost any vegetable but onions, tomatoes, and the
potatoes can be substituted for another vegetable. Don't use the
cabbage family because the flavor is too radically changed.
Green peas and baby lima beans are a great addition, as is 1/2
cup of corn kernels.

POTATO APPETIZERS
(Serves 10)
Delightful, easy-to-serve, appetizers
1 pound potatoes
2 Tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup chives or green onions, finely
chopped
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 cup wheat germ
Peel and chop potatoes. Place potatoes in a pot and cover with
water. Boil until soft.
Mash cooked potatoes with oil, then add seasonings. Meanwhile,
heat oven to 375 degrees. Shape mix into 1-inch balls. Mix the
paprika and wheat germ together in a dish. Roll potato balls in
paprika and wheat germ mixture until coated. Place on oiled
baking sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for about 20 minutes. Let
stand on folded paper towels before serving with toothpicks.

POTATO AND RED ONION ROAST
(Serves 4)
A delight from the oven. Serve with a green bean salad and whole
wheat bread sticks.
4 pounds small red potatoes, halved but
unskinned
2 large red onions cut into 1/2-inch bits
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 Tablespoon crushed dried parsley
1 Tablespoon crushed dried rosemary
Salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat uncooked potato halves and
onion bits in oil and seasonings. Spread in a deep-sided
roasting pan and roast for about 40 minutes. Turn the
onion/potato mixture several times while roasting until all
pieces are light brown.

Red Peppers Stuffed with Corn and Fresh Mozzarella
This filling can also be used for zucchini or tomatoes. Serve with a fresh, summery tomato sauce.
2 red bell peppers, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons butter
1 bunch scallions, including the firm greens, thinly sliced
2 1/2 to 3 cups kernels from 5 ears of corn
2 tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and diced
1 fresh mozzarella cheese, 4 to 5 ounces, finely diced, or 1 cup grated Cheddar or Monterey jack
2 tablespoons finely sliced basil leaves
2/3 cup fresh bread crumbs
Salt and freshly milled pepper
Paprika
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly butter a baking dish just large enough to hold the peppers.
If the red peppers won't stand upright, slice them lengthwise in half, leaving the stem end intact. Steam them for 5 minutes and set aside.
Melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the scallions, corn, and tomatoes and cook for 3 minutes over medium heat. Turn off the heat and stir in the cheese, basil, and half the bread crumbs. Season with salt and pepper. Fill the peppers and top with the remaining bread crumbs. Set them in a prepared dish, add a few tablespoons water to the dish, cover, and bake until the corn is hot and the peppers are cooked, about 25 minutes. Uncover and brown the tops under the broiler. Dust with paprika and serve.
