JournalNow.com: Veggin' Out

Contrary to a popular stereotype, vegetarians are not all champions of self-denial, pathetically munching a sprout on the sidelines while watching the omnivores have all the culinary fun. Instead, the vegetarians we know love good food and know where to get it. They aren't about to settle for a bland meal, either at home or at a restaurant.

Veggie bites

*Harris-Teeter has started carrying a few new frozen vegetarian items, including Amy’s spinach-tofu burritos, and LightLife pretzel-wrapped veggie dogs and “chicken” cordon blue. Unfortunately, they’ve made the shelf space by getting rid of other items, including a couple I was very fond of!

*My new craze is Earthbound Farm’s organic fresh-herb salad mix. It contains parsley, cilantro and dill leaves along with the various lettuces, which add a nice, different flavor when you get them in a bite of your salad.

*I finally bought a package of fresh spinach a couple of weeks ago, my first since the E. coli outbreak. I used it in a recipe, though, so it was cooked.

*I recently came across Greenlight magazine, an online-only magazine devoted to “earth-friendly” living. You can get a free subscription and check out articles here.
