I am dreaming here because I dont have a milchig oven but how about milchig lasagna, eggplant parmesan, baked ziti,... (you said you love pasta, no?)
for Pareve dinners we have fish- salmon, tuna patties,...
once in a while homemade falafels.

if were not that hungry, sometimes I take the easy way out and make "tunafels" embarrassed

I make a big salad, add a can of tuna, dress it, and eat it in pitas.... embarrassed

Yup I LOVE pasta, addicted that is!!! Very Happy

How do/did you make eggplant parmesan. The recipe in the S&S takes forever and I never make it really good. Any tips? Recipes? Is it possible to make it w/o frying the eggplants?

I have not made falafels in a while. Good idea! Anything else parev that isn't fish?

Sounds like a quick and easy idea. Hey, ever lady needs a break sometimes, nothing to be embarrassed

about! We after all don't run on batteries, eventhough it s/t looks like we do. Wink

What is quinoa and where can I find it? How do I cook it?

Do you have good recipes for quesadillas and borritos and any other Mexican food? Yum!!! That is something I didn't eat in a long time and now that you reminded me boy do I miss it!!! I can't find refried beans in any of the supper markets do you know any kosher brands? The only one I know is Del David and they have it in kosher stores only since it is a small jewish brand which we can't get here.

Quinoa is a grain that has lots of iron and protein and is supposed to be very healthy. Where do you live? I buy it at Trader Joe's or Whole Foods. Any health foods store should have it.

In the Spice and Spirit there is a recipe for Blintz loaf. It is delicious, and so easy to make. It calls for a few different types of cheese, and sour cream, neither of which I can get here, but I just put in the one I can buy here (similar to farmer cheese) and it's yum! Also, if you're making it, I add some cinnamon to the cheese batter. Enjoy!

Fish is so flexible - you can have steaks, fillets, patties. We have fish at least once a week and once a week tofu or something else.

For a light meal I will sometimes make creamed mushrooms over toast, or letcho (stewed onions, tomatoes, peppers (zucchini optional), thickened with eggs) over toast.

Eggplant lasagne - like eggplant parmesan but half the time. You egg and bread sliced eggplant, fry it (sorry, but you might be able to bake it on an oiled pan) and then pour pizza or marinara sauce over it right in the frying pan, sprinkle with cheese and cover and cook till the cheese melts and the sauce bubbles.

Let me test this out and see if it works. The only prob is that it doesn't say who I am quoting. How do I do that?

I have a larger size convection oven by Magic Mill, but my sister has one that is bigger than a toaster but smaller then mine. She got it in Sterling Electronics. It can fit one 9x13 pan. Let me know if that is arround what you want and I can ask her what company she has.

good job! I dont know how you get it to say who you are quoting, I thought it could only do that if youre quoting the whole thing.

I know we discussed this in milchig oven/fleishig oven thread, but I don't remember. Don't any of you make milchigs in your fleishig oven and just keep it covered?!? I make pizza in a 9x13 pan and bake it covered. same w/ baked ziti, lasagna, tuna/noodle casserole... The only fish I know how to make is fried fillets (you know, dip in egg, dip in bread crumbs, then fry). I can't stand fish that tastes too "fishy." SO I haven't been very creative w/ fish recipes. any suggestions?
how do you make falafel? from one of those mixes? I don't think I have time to do it from scratch.

What do you make with tofu? How do you make creamed mushrooms over toast? Why is it quicker to make the eggplant lasagne rather then eggplant parmesan? Sounds the same except you fry instead of bake and that saves washing some dishes. How high of a flame or electric(which I have) do you cook it on and arround how long does it take to melt the cheese and cook the food?
