I Want Your Veggie Advice

by

I am really starting to feel like “Sally the Vegan.” I love having this label, and I love that everyone knows it and is comfortable approaching me. People e-mail me for recipe ideas, tell me when they make a fully vegetarian meal, and ask me for animal- and health-related advice. The other day, a trainer at my gym, who I was not even sure knew who I was, came running up to me to tell me she had been thinking about me while watching Wayne Pacelle on Oprah.

I love hearing that something I said or did stuck with someone and impacted their life in some way. This week, however, two people have asked me questions that I was unable to answer - and so I turn to you for input.

1. My friend Kelly was in search of a recipe for vegetarian moussaka. After I was of no help, she was able to find one using mushrooms online. Have you ever made vegetarian moussaka? Please share your recipe!

2. My co-worker has a nine month old at home. She’s vegetarian; her husband is a meat lover. Today she asked for a recommendation for a book about raising kids vegetarian. Not being to the family stage of my life yet, I’ve not read any veg rearing books. Have you raised a veg child? What advice would you give to a new mom whose husband is not interested in vegetarianism? Can you recommend a good book?

Thanks for your help!

    I like the Vegetarian Mother and Baby by Rose Elliot…it has nutrition advice as well as recipes for stages from infants to toddlers.
