Wonderful eats, without meat

For a long time, I had a deep desire to find a way
to eat wonderfully without meat...

Welcome!

I've been cooking since I was in high school, and still there's something magic about it for me. You start with raw ingredients, and transform them into something special (which hopefully tastes good too!).

Where do these recipes come from? Lots of places. Some, as with many a simple pasta sauce, have been vegetarian standards through the ages. Some are adaptations of traditional, meat-based dishes. And some are original recipes that evolved with inspiration, along with plenty trial and error.

If you're ready to find some magic in your kitchen, start planning your next meal by browsing at right!

Tortellini with Asparagus and Leeks
