Most of these recipes
are at least vegetarian, with the exception of chicken soup and crab casserole,
and many of them are vegan. I eat mostly vegetarian because my son
and older daughter are vegans and my younger daughter, like myself, eats
no red meat. I like to call myself a "fifth day vegetarian" ... I
will eat nothing God created on the same day He created me! So fish
and fowl, which were created on Day Five, are okay to eat, at least sparingly;
but red meat, being created on Day Six along with mankind, is a little
too cannibalistic for me ... not to mention all the health, environmental,
and just plain cuddly reasons for not eating them. Most of these
recipes are modifications of recipes I found in books or got from friends,
although some are "my own invention" -- and as my family will attest, they
are delicious and prove that meat is not necessary to an enjoyable and
nutritious diet. For more about what I believe, click here.

But most of all, enjoy the food God has created for us, both for nourishment
and pleasure.
