Celebrity Chef Cat Cora, unlike Gordon Ramsay, doesn’t feel vegetarians are a pain at all.

In fact, sometimes The Food Network Iron Chef star and her family even, gasp, joins them!

From afterellen.com:

My wife is a vegetarian, so I have to ask: Do you find it annoying to cook for vegetarians or do you approach it as an invigorating challenge?
CC: I find it a fun challenge. In the Cora family, there are nights when we go all veggie, it is cleansing. So, I appreciate where vegetarians are coming from.

Cat’s no stranger to vegetarian cooking.

If you remember, Cat joined forces with Morningstar Farms to teach families to prepare delicious, quick, and healthier meals into the diets.

She said of the partnership:

“Morningstar Farms and I have come up with some easy ways to make eating well more manageable for the home cook. I want families to understand that good food doesn’t require hours in the kitchen.”

Cat also catered the vegan dinner served during Nigel Barker‘s screening of A Sealed Fate.

So cool that Cat practices what she preaches!

Rachael Ray’s Big Orange Book Will Please Vegetarians

Written by Vegetarian Star on Tuesday, November 11th, 2008 in Chefs.

'Rachel Ray's Big Orange Book' Signing

The Food Network Queen Rachael Ray has a new cookbook out, Big Orange Book which contains tons of recipes that are short and easy to fix (30 Minute Meals), along with kosher, and meals for those cooking solo. She nicknamed the cookbook her friend, “BOB” (for Big Orange Book).

Ray listens to her customers. While on her last book tour, she got request for different types of meals INCLUDING VEGETARIAN! Yep, there’s an entire chapter devoted to us.

Hats off to Rachael for listening. Go buy her book and reward good behavior. Warning: There is an entire chapter on burgers as well. You may rip it out and use it for cat litter or just substitute a Boca Burger for any recipe.

So incredible that celebrity chefs are recognizing how vegetarians are part of the main course. From Cat Cora cooking with Morningstar Farms to BOB remembering his meatless friends.

What’s next? Iron Chef Tofu?
