For the vegetarians....but also a great alternative for normal meat patties

The other day while we were watching Gordon Ramsay's Hell's Kitchen, chefs were making flatbread, basically like pizza, just different shape, which really made my craving for pizza come back to life. Then start making this sun-dried tomato, olive and basil pesto flatbread, and it was so good...

Nothing is quicker and easier than a delicious grilled cheese. Adding caramelized mushrooms into the cheese gives this grilled cheese extra yumminess.

This recipe would have been 5 stars without the sliced sun-dried tomatoes. The tomatoes dominated the flavor of the sauce so much that it didn't allow the mushrooms to shine through. My wife liked it, but I noticed she was picking out the tomatoes too.

Smoky chipotle mushroom tacos: sauteed mushrooms and onion cooked down with chipotle in adobo and garlic, piled into warm corn tortillas with queso fresco and salsa. A quick, vegetarian taco night winner.

Instead of pizza sauce, used basil pesto, and the combination of the toppings worked deliciously well together. Cheddar and parmesan really added tons of yummy cheesiness, which was absolutely delicious with the toppings.

An easy Mexican-style chicken, mushrooms and spinach between crispy tortillas.

Found this recipe in donna hay magazine, and I just happened to have all the ingredients this recipe called for. I did make a few changes and cook it differently. The frittata came out delicious, but next time I will cook it on the stove top first to give a nicely browed bottom, then broil at the last a few minutes.

Learn how to make Bibimbap, one of my favorite Korean dishes. This time instead of preparing each vegetable separately, I cooked the similar texture vegetables together, which saved time and still tasted delicious. I mixed the seasoned vegetables with soba noodles and of course always have some kimchee as a side, that's a must in Korean food.

Chicken a la king simmers leftover roast chicken with mushrooms and asparagus in a creamy stock-and-cream sauce, served over white rice. A comforting, retro way to use up Sunday's roast.

Thai-style hot and sour vermicelli salad (yam wun sen) with mushrooms, garlic oil, lemon juice, and soy sauce. Vegetarian, light, and packed with texture.

Pressure cooker saffron brown rice with mushrooms, leeks, carrots, and fennel seeds. A one-pot vegetarian side that cooks hands-off in 25 minutes.

Crumbed button mushrooms with garlic or tartare sauce.

Button mushrooms simmered in a spicy Creole sauce with red wine, garlic, jalapeno, tomatoes, and oregano. A bold, low-calorie side dish ready in 25 minutes.

Indian chicken pies with flaky lard-and-margarine pastry wrapped around garam masala-spiced chicken, mushrooms, and corn. Handheld curry-pot pies worth the weekend effort.

Ale-poached salmon trout with butter-tossed button onions, mushrooms, and carrots in a rich reduced ale sauce. A classic Irish monastery-style fish dish with rustic elegance.
