Vegetarians live longer!

[Jim Logajan]

What's the deal?? Let folks eat what they want with no recriminations. No one likes meat more than I do, but I don't eat it every meal, or even every day. To night it is grilled asparagus, mushrooms, onions and bell peppers with bruschetta topped with cilantro, fresh tomato and goat cheese. Totally veggie, absolutely delicious with some chilled Provencal rose and a couple of glasses of pastis after the meal.....ahhhhhhh. Retirement is hell.

Since I can't abide another fellow enjoying retirement while I still have to work (though I had smoked salmon fettuccine this evening) I'm going to point out that goat cheese isn't a vegetable. :wink2:

The drubbing given to vegetarian food by you people only illustrates your utterly profound ignorance. No one has ever left Steinholme a whit less than sated and a whit less than satisfied. That includes members of this here board, by the way.

Is that by chance an invitation?

I have not converted to vegetarianism, but I have started eating a lot more vegetarian meals. If you put enough hot pepper, onions, mushrooms, garlic, tomatoes and cilantro in a skillet and heat it up, you can poor it over newspaper and enjoy it. (But it is better over pasta).

Or dice up some zuchini, squash, fennel, mushrooms and potatoes and coat with olive oil, garlic, hot pepper flakes, sesame seeds, salt, pepper and slow roast them, they make a great meal. (But they are better served next to a good steak).

The neighbors out here at the new house are growing my next steak.
