In the last three weeks, New York Times's well blog holiday vegetarian and vegan recipes from an all-star team of chefs and food writer collected. The haul was delicious: see other crisp low fat Zucchini cake; Avocado and Grapefruit salad;Honey-roasted acorn squash, chestnut and Apple casserole;and a surprisingly simple chocolate pumpkin bread pudding with coconut milk instead of dairy products.
To non-vegetarians Thanksgiving without Turkey can sound like Ketzerei.Aber shifting your focus from the bird, the rest of the meal which can cook a surprising effect on both your eating habits and creativity.
"It makes for good food to reconsider and create dishes, vegetables, play an important role", said Michael Anthony, executive chef of Gramercy Tavern in New York City.

"" There is no way, draw a niche market in the restaurant, nor is it designed so that an escape from regular food, "said Mr Anthony.""It's meant to be a celebration of vegetables and a large snapshot of what is available in the market and what grows in family businesses around our area."

Many Americans are still eat enough vegetables.This fall, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said that only 26 percent of the country Aß adult vegetables three or more per day mal.Ein separate report from NPD Group, market research consultant, found that four of five American meals not included are vegetables.
The cookbook Writer Joan Nathan says the problem is that many home cooks can imagine, create an interesting meal without meat in the center of the plate.
