New Recipes
Maki Rolls
Maki rolls are a vegetarian relative of sushi. This recipe calls for cucumber
and avocado, but you can experiment with other ingredients as well.

Mushroom Recipes
Mushrooms are another food that elicits strong opinions - most people either
love them or hate them. The texture is a bit strange, and the less said about
what mushrooms actually are (the fruit of a fungus which feeds on decay) the
better. On the other hand, mushrooms are good for detoxifying, high in protein,
and tasty, so here's a collection of vegetarian recipes that call for mushrooms.

Veggie Talk
Unsupportive Dad
I've been a vegetarian since October, and it's been going fine. My mom supports
me fully, but recently, my dad has been yelling at me about my diet. He says
that I'm going to 'double my size' by eating too many starches, that I'm not
getting enough protein, and that I'm going to get a disease and die unless I eat
meat. He also calls me 'stupid' to boot. He is totally against soy, which was my
main source of protein. He says that there's too much estrogen in it and it'll
cause breast cancer. I've been banned from drinking soy milk, and he's also
trying to ban me from eating soy-based meat substitutes. I need suggestion on
what else I can eat for protein.
