Food & Drink - 30 December 2007

Half the week I am at my dad's house & the other half I am at my mom's. At my dad's house my step-mom always cooks dinner for us. For the last couple of years, my mom has stopped cooking and just heats a TV dinner, picks up something at a food place, or orders something. I am also a vegetarian, so my options are limited.

I am pretty sick of having dinner consist of just Ramen Noodles, Mac n' Cheese, Peanut Butter & Banana, or a TV dinner. So, what are some good ideas that I could make for myself at the store, and that are healthier? I don't have a lot of time to cook, but I am willing to cook for myself! =]

I love squash, broccoli, carrots, cucumber, and any fruits! =]

Thanks for all the help! =D

I would like a set of three if possible. I've tried all the major kitchen stores. There are some that are clear with grapes or apples or roosters or wine bottles painted on them.

I am seeking suggestions on how to add more variety to my soon-to-be-1-yr old daughter's culinary experience! I don't want to stay in a rut of feeding her the same foods. Whenever i can i try to have her join in with whatever her dad and I are eating but it's not always good for her to eat. On those days it would be great to have some simple meal ideas to whip up for her so if anyone can suggest a recipe that's not TOO elaborate (even if you think it is too simple to mention!) i would very much appreciate the inspiration!

My mom is having a fondue dinner...I'm the only vegetarian. Is there anything meatless that works well as a fondue dipper?

Starting New Year's Day I want a healthier me. I want to lose weight and become healthier. That means no more processed foods.
But due to our busy lifestyles, pre-packaged processed foods are just easier. And it is certainly easier to stop at McDonalds on my way home from work than it is to cook.

I am looking for tips, advice, and healthy alternatives to foods I love (the ones that are bad for me.)
Can you name brands that are good? And I am not opposed to fruits and veggies.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I know it sounds like a dumb question. But I asked my dad to get me California rolls and he came back with real sushi. Can you actually eat raw fish?

I saw a chef make sticky coconut black rice and it looked really chewy, not like porridgey rice pudding. Any hints? I have black glutinous rice, with no idea how to use it

Please don't be vulgar as this is very important for me, respect and be respected.

Here's the deal I basicaly eat Rice, tomatoes(technically not a veg), bread, and pastas. I'd like to know what else can I eat, I support animal rights but it's not why I don't eat meat at all.. I find meat disgusting because of it's parasitic content. specially pork an beef.

You know how you stroll by the produce section of stores and you get surrounded by a vast area of steak like meats?

Well I have a problem, I love steak... except without the white fat... I cant swallow meat with those kind of fat no matter how hard I try. What steak like meat do we have that doesnt have as slim to none fat?

I am open to try anything.
