GO VEGGIE
IN A WEEK
TUESDAY
Recipes from National Vegetarian Week, Sept.28 to Oct.4, 1992
Menu - serves 4 |
BREAKFAST
Fruit juice, a bowl of granola, tea or coffee. Granola is a crunchy alternative
to muesli. The rolled oats have been toasted, usually with honey (so you
do not have to add sugar) and has dried fruit and nuts added It is available
in supermarkets and health food shops.

LUNCH
Quick and easy pizza. Cheese on toast may be vegetarian, but it is
not very exciting. With a couple more ingredients it can be turned into pizza.
Choose your favourite bread, cover it with slices of tomato and pepper rings,
sprinkle with dried oregano and olive oil, top with grated vegetarian cheese
and grill until bubbling and golden.
