How to Eat Healthy as a Vegetarian
Monday, January 9th, 2012
http://vegetarianlife-style.com/
One of the biggest injustices that the vegetarian movement has endured is that in popular culture, the image of a vegetarian is that of a fanatic hippy or cult member who is “off the deep end” and cannot think about anything else besides “saving a cow” and pushing vegetarianism on everyone he meets. The truth is that the lifestyle of a vegetarian is not that different than everyone else in the culture. In fact, the odds are that somewhere in your social circle at work, school, church or in your family and friends network, you already know several people who are quietly enjoying the lifestyle of a vegetarian. So to help us get over the negative stereotypes to understand how a vegetarian actually lives, lets examine what is different about a vegetarians life.
The most significant difference in how a vegetarian lives is obvious because it is in how he or she eats. You will not find any meat in a vegetarian’s kitchen. Now this doesn’t mean that a vegetarian cannot live in a family and be at peace with meat eaters. If the home has one vegetarian but others who are not, you will be able to tell from the presence of soy and perhaps more fruit and fresh vegetables in the refrigerator. But the idea that vegetarians cannot be around meat eaters is false. If anything vegetarians are peace loving and can live their lifestyle around others who are not of their belief system very well.
Grocery shopping with a vegetarian is an eye opening experience and one that is quite different in more ways than you would suspect. Being a vegetarian isn’t just about what you don’t eat in that you don’t eat meat. It is also about a completely different approach to diet and foods. So you will not see a vegetarian buying food in the same way most people do. There will be much more time spent in the fresh produce section of the grocery store. The checkout basket of a vegetarian will give him or her away every time because it will be overflowing with fresh foods.
But shopping for food with a vegetarian means shopping in other places than the local grocery store. It means buying grains and beans in bulk at a warehouse store because that is one way that a vegetarian maintains health by replacing the protein and other nutrients that the rest of the world gets from meat and replacing it with proteins from beans and other natural foods. It also means shopping in farmer’s markets and even shopping in a vegetarian specialty store for some high nutrition meat substitutes like tofu.
The vegetarian movement is in harmony with many of the earth first movements such as the organic movement and the green movement. So a vegetarian kitchen will have more organic foods on hand to reduce the presence of harmful pesticides and other substances in the diet. Also vegetarianism affects the lifestyle beyond just the refrigerator and the pantry. You will not find leather clothing in a vegetarian’s closet and you wont find fur there either. That is became for the most part vegetarians are sensitive to animal rights and they don’t want to see the skin of animals used in their clothing.
The house of a vegetarian will also be a recycling house to do all that is possible to cut down on waste and to be earth friendly. Along with recycling bottles and cans as you might expect, a vegetarian recycles a lot right at home. A recycling home will often have a compost pile in the yard for food waste and it will also support a good sized garden to use that compost to grow at home organic foods to supplement a healthy diet.
For obvious reasons, a vegetarian will have vegetarian friends and belong to social groups and attend functions that support the vegetarian lifestyle. Eating out with a vegetarian will mean going to more ethnic food restaurants and you will see a lot of creativity in how to order foods in a restaurant. But contrary to popular opinion, vegetarian eating is more flavorful and diverse than the normal diet.
Just spending a day with a vegetarian will reveal to you a more harmonious lifestyle that is sensitive to the environment and at peace with itself. It is a healthy and happy lifestyle and one that should be attractive to all of us. Free Information Here:

Betty’s Stewed Tomatoes Recipe
Sunday, January 8th, 2012
In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make Stewed Tomatoes. This is the time of year that we have an abundance of tomatoes and green peppers. This is a recipe that I created about 35 years ago to use our over-supply of vegetables, and it has turned out to be a very nice side dish or an addition to soups and stews. It is very light and also tasty, and you can control the ingredients to keep it natural and healthy. It is also great for dieters.
Ingredients:
1 ½ tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
½ cup green bell pepper, chopped
½ cup onion, chopped
½ cup celery, chopped
1 tablespoon cornstarch
4 cups tomatoes (any variety), peeled and coarsely chopped (I do not remove the seeds, but you may choose to do that. If you need a quick and easy way to peel tomatoes, please check my Quick Tip 75 on peeling tomatoes.)
½ teaspoon sugar
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Drain 4 cups chopped tomatoes, pressing to get as much juice from them as possible, and place the juice in a measuring cup or small bowl. Set tomatoes and juice aside. In a large, deep skillet, place 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil. Add ½ cup chopped green pepper, ½ cup chopped onion, and ½ cup chopped celery. Saute vegetables in olive oil until crisp-tender, but not browned. Add 1 tablespoon cornstarch to reserved tomato juice. Mix thoroughly. Add tomato-cornstarch mixture to sautéed vegetable mixture. Stir quickly and completely to combine. Stir in ½ teaspoon sugar, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon ground black pepper. Add the reserved 4 cups of tomatoes, and stir until well combined. Cook on stove top over low heat for 15 minutes, or until vegetables are done to your taste and sauce has thickened a bit. Ladle the Stewed Tomatoes into a nice serving bowl. Serve while hot into individual serving bowls. This makes a great accompaniment to almost any entrée, and it is quick, easy, and nutritious. Enjoy! –Betty
