    Vegetarian Haggis!

    This is no "great chieftan of the pudding race". But perhaps it's what you seek?

    Ingredients

    1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    1 medium onion, finely chopped
    1 small carrot, finely chopped
    5 fresh mushrooms, finely chopped
    1 cup vegetable broth
    1/3 cup dry red lentils
    2 tablespoons canned kidney beans - drained, rinsed, and mashed
    3 tablespoons ground peanuts
    2 tablespoons ground hazelnuts
    1 tablespoon soy sauce
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
    1 teaspoon dried rosemary
    1 pinch ground cayenne pepper
    1 1/2 teaspoons mixed spice
    1 egg, beaten
    1 1/3 cups steel cut oats

    Directions

    Heat the vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat, and saute the onion 5 minutes, until tender. Mix in carrot and mushrooms, and continue cooking 5 minutes. Stir in broth, lentils, kidney beans, peanuts, hazelnuts, soy sauce, and lemon juice. Season with thyme, rosemary, cayenne pepper, and mixed spice. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer 10 minutes. Stir in oats, cover, and simmer 20 minutes.
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 5x9 inch baking pan.
    Stir the egg into the saucepan. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan. Bake 30 minutes, until firm.

    Let me talk to my lady when I get home from work today. She is vegan (most of the time) and works some wonders in the kitchen.

    Not sure if you've thought of this option... Raw Vegan?

    I just found this website online, so I'm not familiar with which is the best one -- my husband did more reading up on this subject because he wanted to try it (we have been vegetarian for two years or so and vegan for ten years or so). I enjoyed it, but too much of it upsets my stomach. Still... some of the recipes look yummy, and I would love to add some back into my diet (we've been more vegetarian the past year and want to go more vegan again with our diet). I thought of this because of the heat and energy conservation point you mentioned.

    Anyway, try doing some searches for raw vegan recipes. See if there's anything yummy on a site like this: http://goneraw.com/

    Bleu cheese basil potato salad

    This is dead easy, but delicious for summer. I just adopted it from a Ravelry colleague, for a picnic last month.

    Boil small red bliss or yukon potatoes, and cool. Slice into small rounds and arrange on a plate. Top with chopped basil, lemon zest, crumbled blue cheese, and green onions or shallot rounds. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and olive oil, salt and pepper.

    On my first try, I had the lazy (and lacked lemons) so gave a sprinkle of lemon juice instead of lemon zest. A bit of fresh parsley is good. I also substitute rice vinegar for the balsamic, for a milder version. Don't overdo the bleu cheese, especially with stronger flavored ones, as some folks may find it too rich. You can always add some more to your serving (I do).

    Lots of variations possible. For a larger quantity, build in layers in a large bowl; optionally toss before serving.

    Vegetarian haggis just sounds fundamentally wrong on so many levels... But I WILL give it a try! ;-) Thanks for this!
