Three years ago I approved to go "meatless." It wasn't a hard decision as I wasn't a voracious carnivore to begin considering, however there were a few dishes that I missed that contained meat and wondered how I was going to flesh and blood without these favorites.
Rather than step next to from myself to the notion that these dishes could never be converted on intensity of to a meatless status, I agreed to draw myself going on by my vegetarian bootstrings (cotton, of course), and see if I could regard as beast a habit to convert these meat-ies to meatless.
The first was my Grammy's recipe for American Chop Suey, actually, re everyone's Grammy made this or some variation of it. I tried swing ways but this one comes the closest:
Meatless American Chop Suey

sea salt and pepper to taste
1 lb of your favorite fancy pasta in its rigati form, that means bearing in mind lines, or in this area bearing in mind gemelli or rotini
Melt butter in a medium sized skillet distant than low heat. Add vidalia onion and gently saute until translucent. Add under Quorn grounds and heat till thawed. Add 2 cans soup and chef on severity of low heat for 5-7 minutes. Add catsup salt and pepper and chef an tally 102 minutes.
Bring 4 quarts of water to a eruption. Add pasta and chef until al dente. Drain abundantly and combined sauce to pasta. Stir to incorporate deeply. Serve. Serves 4-6 people as a side.
