Welcome! A Veggie Venture is the award-winning home of 675+ vegetable recipes, all organized to find just what youíre looking for. So browse the Recipe Box to see what appeals for tonight or the weekend! Or if you're looking for something particular, see Five Ways to Find the Perfect Recipe.

Each recipe includes shorthand information about time requirements and nutrition. For example, Creamy Coleslaw 10min/4hrs - WW1 - NetCarb5 ♥ means that the recipe for Creamy Coleslaw

• takes 10 minutes of hands-on time to prepare but 4 hours to get to the table
• a serving counts as 1 point in Weight Watchers parlance
• a serving has only 8 Net Carbs, where Net Carbs = Total Carbs - Fiber
• it's a personal favorite marked by ♥
• If it's a Kitchen Parade recipe, it's a vegetable-rich recipe from my published food column where recipes are online at KitchenParade.com

Look for new features in 2008, including Nutrition Resources and How to Save Money on Groceries.
