Vegetarian Cookbook – We need YOU!
(11) Comments | Posted: May 8 in Random - by Carrie Brock
The folks of Climb Nashville have had an idea brewing for a while. We are compiling a Climb Nashville fundraiser cookbook – all vegetarian or vegan recipes!! But we need YOU to submit the recipes! We’ll spend the next few months collecting & compiling (Your recipe will be listed along w/your name.) We aren’t interested in making any money from this, but it will be sold as a fundraiser for Made in The Streets, a non-profit that works getting children off the streets of Nairobi, Kenya.
We think it will be a great way for our gym community to share awesome recipes & benefit a very, very worthy cause. I hope you are excited, because I’m super-psyched to see what y’all come up with. We also hope to get some professional athletes to tell us what they eat before some way-hard climbing.
Let the fun begin. Submit your recipes right away. We’ll draw things to a close at the end of summer & print it in the fall.

who are the oatmeal pancakes from? I’d like to post your name w/the recipe. Thanks!
Wow, this is SUCH a good idea! Carrie, will you put all your recipes in too? Like the veggie bean burgers and the vegetable soup and anything else – because everything lance let’s me taste is soooo good!
and is there a section for protein shakes? If anyone has a recipe to make WHEY protein taste better, i think it would be a great idea for vegetarians like me… since its how i get my protein.
I’m going to go make up something and come back and post it.
The oatmeal pancakes are mine. Sorry, I put the recipe name in instead of my name by accident. They are good chow!
Pumpkin Pie*
Ingredients:
1 pumpkin, about 3 pounds
2 cans of sweetened condensed milk
3 eggs
4 tsp vanilla
5 ounces (by volume) white sugar, or more to taste
6 ounces (by volume) brown sugar, or more to taste
7 tsp pumpkin pie spices, or more to taste**
To Do:
Cut pumpkin in half, scoop out seeds and bake cut side up on a cookie sheet at 450 degrees for about an hour. Then cool and scoop out the soft pumpkin.
Drain pumpkin in a colander for about an hour.
Mix all the ingredients together, holding out one cup of pumpkin. Puree in a food processor. Then mix in the remaining pumpkin.
Place into a pie crust, homemade if possible.
Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes, then 350 degrees until done. The Pie is done when it is cracking on top and the crust is approaching a mahogany brown color.
Cool thoroughly and enjoy.
* or feel free to use butternut squash, or cushaw, or acorn squash, or really just about any winter melon that fits your fancy.
** I mix my own by grinding together orange peel, lots of cinnamon, some crystallized ginger, allspice and nutmeg, but you can also use the store-bought stuff.
Yogurt Biscuits
Buttermilk is simply a wimpy version of yogurt. When a recipe calls for buttermilk, replacing it with yogurt is sooooo much better.
4 cups flour
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp salt
some sugar
2 sticks butter
2 cups yogurt (homemade if possible, otherwise use unsweetened without chemicals)
1. Preheat oven to 375°.
2. mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.
3. mix flour mixture and butter by hand or in a food processor until sand-like.
4. Add yogurt and mix just until mixture comes together
5. Dump out onto a floured surface
6. Roll dough to 1-inch thickness.
7. Cut to 2-3 inch circles (use a glass or a jar).
8. Place biscuits onto cookie sheet or cast iron skillet (my favorite).
9. Bake until lightly browned, 18 to 20 minutes.
Potato Pancakes (latkes)
There are really two schools of thought on the classic potato latke. Some people believe the potatoes should be coarsely shredded (like hash browns) and others believe they should be finely shredded or ground up into a paste. Either is fine and the texture differs, but other than that, here is the way to go. Also, I never use recipes, so you can vary the proportions to taste.
2-3 large baking potatoes, 4-5 medium yukon gold potatoes, or whatever you prefer.
1 yellow or white onion
1/3 cup flour or matzoh meal
1-2 eggs
Salt and Pepper
Olive oil
Peel the potatoes and shred or grind them however you like
Peel the onions and chop them finely or grind them as well
Mix and let stand until a bit of water has formed on them, then drain this (or squeeze in a towel)
Add flour, eggs and salt and pepper to taste
Fry patties in olive oil heated to just below the smoking point, about 1/2 cm deep. Turn over when golden to dark brown on one side. Drain and eat hot with apple sauce or sour cream.
A variant uses sweet potatoes, and some add curry to these.
my mom cooks veal and it tastes good bcuz the meat is so tender 4 sum reason
