Posted by kathryn in Legumes, Dinners and Ethics & Sustainablity

  • Fuel prices vs food prices: Interesting read from Crikey. While we’re concentrating on rising fuel prices, it’s food prices which are more worrying.
  • Easy fish: Another of Mark Bittman’s easy recipes – this time grilled fish with fennel. Only six ingredients and takes about 20 minutes.
  • Beer-baked beans: One recipe I’m going to make very soon is Cassie’s beer-baked beans from Veggie Meal Plans.
  • Filo samosas: Wendy from A Wee Bit of Cooking has been making samosas with filo pastry. They’re oven-baked and significantly lower in fat.
  • Eating sustainably: last week I linked to an article at The Gobbler about a backlash against ethical eating. This week Duncan of Syrup & Tang has blogged about the impediments for most people to eating sustainably.
  • Are you a junk food vegetarian?: There are vegetarians out there who don’t eat any vegetables, living on cheese and carbs. If this is you, then Calorie Lab has some good advice.

I’ve just read the linked-to piece on junk food vegetarian diets. If you read closely, the author appears to be suggesting that mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables are a signficant source of protein! Not impressed with that.


renee 26 July, 2008

Samosa’s look great – am going to give them a go this week – do you think they would freeze okay? Am interested in hearing how you go with the beans…


Vegeyum 27 July, 2008

Another week of wonderful food advice. I love your link posts. It always takes me half an hour or so to check them out and get distracted by the great blogs I find.


kathryn 28 July, 2008

Renee: I think the samosas would freeze – but you can always check-in with Wendy on A Wee Bit of Cooking if you’re unsure. Will let you know how the beans go.

Thank you Vegeyum. There is so much to read out there!

Joanne: agreed it is the downpoint to the article. I wonder if the author is referring to legumes – which are vegetables and high in protein. But they should make that clear. I’ve know a fair few cheese and potato vegetarians in my time!
