I had this cottage cheese loaf at someone's house about 20 years ago and I loved it. It tasted better than any vegetarian dish [or even meat dishes] that I've ever had in my life! And I have had quite a few vegetarian meals over the years and attended many vegetarian potlucks. The lady gave me the recipe for it but I've found it in several vegetarian cookbooks too. I make this quite often.
Cottage Cheese Loaf [Can also be called Special K Roast]
1 large container cottage cheese
1/2 cup [or one stick] margarine or butter
1 large onion, diced
1 cup walnuts chopped very fine [I smash them]
3 eggs
2 tablespoons of vegetarian fake chicken seasoning [this is approximate, you can either add more or less depending on your tastes]
5 cups Special K cereal
Spray a large baking casserole dish with Pam or other spray, turn oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl [easiest if you use a microwavable one], melt the butter in the microwave, add all ingredients EXCEPT the Special K cereal. Mix well. Then add the Special K cereal and mix well. Add to casserole dish, cover with foil, bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees. After 45 minutes, take off the foil and bake another 10 to 15 minutes. Take out of the oven and let it set for about 15 minutes before you eat it. It just seems to work better that way for some reason!

Vegan Carrot Soup
INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 large carrots, sliced
5 new potatoes, quartered
2 cups vegetable broth
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon curry powder
salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
Heat oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and cook stirring often until onion is translucent. Add carrots and potatoes, and cook for just a few minutes to allow the carrots to sweat out some of their juices.
Pour the vegetable broth into the pot, and season with ginger, curry powder, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until carrots are tender.
Puree soup in small batches using a food processor or blender, or if you have an immersion blender, it can be done in the soup pot. Reheat soup if necessary, and serve.
