"I was 13 when I became a vegetarian. At the time, my mother and I concocted this recipe. Today, it is still my favourite way to eat tofu, and my favoured recipe for introducing tofu to sceptics. You can adjust vegetables to your family's taste."

"I suck at baking. We needed a quick bread to go with pea soup as its mysteriously cold lately.
We dumped approximate ingredients in a bowl, mixed them with a bottle of beer and it ended up quite delicious.
We sprinkled it with sesame seeds but I guess poppy seed would be better. You judge who is right."

Ingredients: dried onions, raw sugar...

"This is a lovely salad dressing from a local gluten-free cookbook. It is extremely simple and you'll (most likely) already have all the ingredients at home."

Ingredients: instant minced garlic, dry mustard...

"You can use any kind of (sweet) liquid to make these - fruit juice, iced tea (or other infusion)... even a smoothie; for a more grown up taste, try some liqueur or coffee. They work up really quickly, are dense and chewy, and are vegan."

Ingredients: margarine, salt, sugar...

"This recipe is delicious. I doubt you could fool a tofu-phobic as the pieces are visible, but it really is a nice recipe. The original recipe (found at http://www.soscuisine.com) doesn't call for cheese, but I've included it because it adds that extra touch."

Ingredients: firm tofu, green peas, milk...

"French Canadian Breakfast spread. Usually served in restaurants at breakfast. I asked for this recipe on another site b/c I had it often when I was growing up. The person who makes it, and posted it, is from Quebec. I cannot give an amount b/c it depends on how thick you spread it on your toast!"

Ingredients: cloves, pepper...

"Very simple, refreshing, and tasty. A great way to feed your kids (or yourself) vegetables. Adjust honey to taste."

Ingredients: cucumbers, honey...

"I created this recipe when looking for a somewhat health-ier version of the classic oatmeal cookie. Here's what came of it, hope you like it :)"

Ingredients: dried cranberries, eggs, honey...

"My pantry is running very low on baking supplies, but I had a box of raisin-bran cereal that had too many raisins that I wanted to use up. So, I chose to adapt my other recipe: 1 Minute, No Bake, Cocoa Delicacy using what I had on hand. I think this turned out really nice and entirely different from the original version. I used peanut-hazelnut butter instead of peanut..."

Ingredients: Raisin Bran cereal, no-sugar-added peanut butter...

"This a hearty, comforting, and colourful soup when I was all tomatoed-out and craving cabbage soup. If you have a food processor, the preparation should be really quick and simple. Can also be made in a slow-cooker. Freezes well."

Ingredients: sausages, dried thyme...

"This is a delightful, moist, and flavourful treat. It doesn't feel or taste oily like most zucchini bread recipes. I created this recipe to use up those giant zucchinis. It is easily doubled and freezes well."

Ingredients: cinnamon, dates, eggs...

"Drink this before breakfast. Tastes great, is incredibly healthy, and you don't need a juicer. TIP: I prepare some ahead of time and freeze 1 cup in silicone muffin pans. I take it out the night before, let it thaw overnight in the fridge, and I have a constant supply."

Ingredients: fresh parsley, oil...
