Rice and veggies is so traditionally vegetarian, you may wonder why there’s even a need to develop a recipe for it.

After all, that’s there to follow about three or four of your favorite vegetables thrown over a bed of boiled or steamed rice?

But there are dozens of combinations of vegetables, each giving the dish a distinctive flavor.

Green plants like broccoli often dominate the dish, but here’s a version from Daphne Oz that adds a little more kick to plain brown rice with onions and celery.

The Chew celebrated Meatless Monday today and Daphne Oz, Mario Batali, Clinton Kelly and Carla Hall showcased their favorite vegetarian recipes.

Instead of sharing one great recipe of the day, why not attempt to make all of these?

Daphne and Clinton both have veggie burgers recipes that will leave no one missing the ground beef. Clinton even has a recipe for real, old-fashioned fried onion rings you can place on top of either meatless patty.

Halloween is just around the corner and you’ll want to prepare something fun and spooky to celebrate the day, even if you’re a tad too big for trick or treating.

Daphne Oz shared a recipe for a green slime made from psyllium–a high fiber husk that improves digestion, lowers cholesterol and prevents constipation.

Summer is coming to an end but there’s still plenty of warm weather to enjoy an ice-cold vegan dessert in.

The Chew is a dream come true for the daytime talk show/foodie person who’s looking for a little more than the Food Network.

Hosted by some of the biggest names in celebrity food, this ABC series may be taking food TV in the right direction by featuring chefs like Mario Batali and Carla Hall, both known for incorporating fresh, seasonal and plant-based items into their entrees.

It doesn’t hurt that one of the hosts is Daphne Oz, promoter of a vegetarian diet and author of The Dorm Room Diet.

The daughter of Dr. Oz, host of the popular daytime medical series The Dr. Oz Show, Daphne recently demonstrated one of the family’s favorite meatless recipes–Oz Family Chili.

Those that watched the episode may have heard Daphne say she was adding chicken broth to the recipe.

However, that was nothing more than a good ol’ vegetarian April Fool’s joke.

Daphne wrote on her Facebook page, “Oops, I said i used “chicken stock” in my veggie chili–so sorry, guys! it was veggie broth!”

One of Daphne Oz‘s tips in her book, Dorm Room Diet, is to make breakfast the largest meal of the day.

In other words, eat like a Roman Gladiator would.

Scientists who’ve examined the skeletons of the soldiers discovered they were large beefcakes, but rarely ate animal proteins. Based on the levels of zinc and strontium in cells, experts are able to determine the diet of the deceased warriors. Because the Gladiators had higher levels of strontium and little zinc, it was determined they ate mainly vegetarian.

Yet, these guys were HUGE with strong bone density so it’s a safe bet they’re breakfasts consisted of high protein, good carbs and a decent amount of good fat like Oz’s super starter of the day meal, Gladiator Oatmeal.

Jonathan Safran Foer is on tour to promote his only work of non-fiction, Eating Animals, a book that explores factory farming and vegetarianism.

Foer’s stop at Harvard was accompanied by an interview with the The Crimson, where Foer gave a statistic about who’s going meatless in the college population.

“Eighteen percent of college students describe themselves as vegetarians,” Foer said. “There are more vegetarians than Catholics in college. In college campuses, it is so unremarkable to be a vegetarian. It’s a kind of aspirational identity. That’s the reason to be most hopeful.”
