Chicago restaurateur and judge on the new Fox cooking show Masterchef,  Graham Elliot (who owns an eatery on W. Huron where president Obama was reported to celebrate his recent 49th), is the 2010 culinary director of Lollapalooza, so he’s partially responsible for ensuring vegetarians have a good selection on the festival’s menu.  Not that the Graham Elliot restaurant is the most vegetarian friendly with lamb, salmon and other animals on the menu.

There’s nothing like having a large selection of vegetarian items at a deli, made fresh and ready to go.

If there were as many falafel trucks as there were ice cream trucks, every neighborhood where the Middle Eastern shop rolled around the corner would shut down!

Falafel is in its own class of plant protein–not soy, seitan or a manufactured veggie protein patty. The chickpea balls have the ability to make vegetarians and carnivores beg for seconds.

Summertime makes you want to grab a box of Suddenly Salad and chow down on the colored pasta for the afternoon. Unless, of course, you’re not into tiny, dehydrated vegetables, and various milk, cheese and other dairy ingredients. And since when did Suddenly Salad have artichokes in it?

If anyone had doubts that a vegan Italian restaurant can work in the midwest, Chrissie Hynde proved them wrong. The singer owns The Vegiterranean in her hometown of Akron, Ohio, where the Parmesean on the menu is “Rawmesan”–a completely animal free topping, not to mention Gardein faux meat for the chicken, meatballs and other proteins.

Chrissie shared one of her favorite vegan pastas, linguine with portobello mushroom ragu with wholewheat pasta, vegan Parmesan, onions, tomatoes and red wine.

“I add rosemary, but oregano or thyme would also work,” says Chrissie of the substitution.

Grab the recipe at The Guardian.

Eco Chef application

Raw chef guru Bryan Au has his own iphone application.

The Eco Chef App, available from itunes for $1.99, offers dozens of raw, organic, vegetarian and vegan recipes from lasagna to desserts. The user can pick recipes from several cuisine types like American, Italian, Indian and Chinese, which are given as either listed instructions or how to videos. There is also an opportunity to ask Chef Bryan those tricky questions like “Can I substitute walnuts for cashews in the raw cheese?” Personally, we’d stick with the cashews, but it’s best to clear that up with Chef Bryan.

Debuting last month, Eco Chef became quite popular, rising to the top 10 lists of apps on itunes by July 4th.

See below for a video reviewing the features of Eco Chef App.

British singer Eliza Doolittle filmed the video for her top 20 single Pack Up from her self-titled debut album on the island of Jamaica.

That environment alone sounds hard enough to conentrate on work, plus the food was something that kept calling Doolittle between film breaks.

“Oh my God, the food was amazing!” Doolittle told BBC News. “I’m vegetarian so I didn’t have any jerk chicken or anything, but I did have some bean soup, and jerk vegetarian wraps and stuff. It was so yummy!”
