I have made this for veggie frinds a few times, it's delicious.

We have even had it for dinner ourselves once or twice, and in a household commited to carniverousness, that has got to be a good sign!!



Ooops, the link would help

Hi
Try Happiness Soup by Nigella as a starter; it's our favourite bright dish for the winter [even though it really is a summer dish]. Substitute vege stock in there; natch.

Oh yeah, serve with bread from the breadmaker; still warm if possible.

I have the quorn roast I absolutely love it ! I make regular cuts into it all the way along and push chopped onion in. I sprinkle half a veg stock cube over and pour a 5 tablespoons of veg stock over to prevent it from becoming too dry I also sprinkly it with mixed herbs before putting it in the oven (cook in a small baking tin)

This sounds lovely, think I may get 2 roasts, because my mum dosen't like onions and garlic and I love it, but she loves tomatoes and I don't.:beer::beer::beer:

Hmm, thinking is making me hungry, yum yum yum.:beer::beer::beer:

Now what to do for starters and pudding:beer::beer::beer:

i will be having red peppers stuffed with rice, lentils and mushrooms, i love christmas dinner because its the only time of the year we have roast parsnips. normally i would have a nut roast i try to find a different recipe each year, but i am loosing wieght prior to surgery and i would like to save calories for a few glasses of wine!!!

I once got a quorn roast and and cooked it about halfway with some herbs, then I got some rashers and wrapped them round the roast and then wrapped some thinly rolled puff pastry around it and cooked it, till the pastry was golden brown. I served this with veggies and gravy. It was really lovely:beer::beer::beer:

I think some cheese would be nice wrapped with the rashers as well. Going to try a different alternative next time:beer::beer::beer:
