hello fire how are you?

Hello everybody!! :D I'm eating gambas strudels which is shrimp and varselli over tomato basil sauce all wrapped up in phyllo dough. Yummm (I typed like nine M's but then realized I was being a letter glutton. I don't mind being a tapas glutton though!!)

hiya Algas!
they did vegeterian chili today on 'the chew', it looked pretty good.
you get get the recipe on their website.
enjoy your tapas!

:) Im good. haw are you?

Phyllo dough makes everything better. :drool:

hi everyone

Hey Mistress!
And YES! I love phyllo dough. There is some inhabiting my freezer currently.

mine to but theres not really enough to do anything with

happy saturday!
happy double bonus goldie day!!!!!

Ive been a practicing vegetarian since July and though it hasnt been to hard to find things to eat in restaurants and of course making things at home. I guess it never occurred to me before that not every place you go is veggie friendly. I spent the better part of today at an art festival they made all kinds of meat dishes hotdogs, burgers, beef sandwiches, pepperoni pizza, donuts or sausage. my only options were french fries, ice cream, popcorn or mozzarella sticks though I do like all those none of it is really healthy.

Has anyone else ever had that problem? What did you do about it or was there nothing you could really do about it?

i usually get the grilled corn and grilled *baked in the coals* sweet potatoes.
and it would be nice if they did salads already packaged, uyou know?

if they offered anything like that I would have gotten it. Salads would be nice but Im not sure they would hold up all that well. theyd probably require refrigeration which can be expensive and raise the price. It would be nice if they came up with some healthier choices of some kind

hope real life is still going well for you Algas sweetie.
:poke:
don't forget about the halloween event please.

Ahh.. What Halloween event? :/

there is a halloween event happing the week of halloween.
i am not sure what day but Jelly said i would be going on the double bonus goldie day as well.
so at least the thirty-first of october and the first of november.

Awesome!! :D I'll have to make a halloween themed veggie thread just for the event. Any ideas for the name?

thats awesome hummy

hmmm, not off the top of my head Allie but i will give it some thought.
do you have any ideas Fire?
hope to see you both around during the event.

Im not really sure but Ill try to be there. I didnt know there was going to be an event.

This thread has gotten really quiet

It has and it makes me sad! But then again, sometimes when I check the thread, if I'm not feeling creative enough to respond to someone, I usually forget to. :/

On another note!! I just had PeiWei Thai Dynamite with tofu! :D

hmmm never heard of that. what is it?

I attempted fried veggies and veggie patties with rice. I only had baby carrots and crape tomatoes. I cut the carrots in quarters and added the tomatoes and a packet of Chinese fried veggie seasoning. I cut the patties into mouth sized pieces. It wasnt that bad. Im still trying to find other veggie meat substitute.

PeiWei is a restaurant chain with great food. :) Thai dynamite is like "Sriracha chile sauce, soy, fresh lime, scallions, red bell peppers, carrots, Thai basil"
It's very tasty. :)

Fire, zuchinni is really good for veggie filler. :) Beans are a good meat substitute, too.

yea Ive heard of black bean burgers before but actually finding it in stores near where I live is hard. :sweat: Im to lazy/busy to make a lot of the stuff from scratch I just opened my own business last monday. getting everything ready has taken about 6 months...

I meant more along the lines of tossing a can of beans into various things. Congratulations on the business, though!
