[ahiddenbird]

We've been given a HUGE bunch of parsley from my mum's friend's garden. its fresh and smells beautiful. i have plans for potatoes and parsley, and im going to chop some of it up and freeze it into cubes in an icecube tray, to season soup with later, too.

so, im just wondering, does anyone know any really good, healthy and vegetarian dishes that

You could make a pesto with it. Tabbouleh also tends to use up a lot of parsley.

TABBOULEH!

[starsinmybelly]

1/2 cup bulgur
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup boiling-hot water
2 cups finely chopped fresh parsley
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh mint
2 medium tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
1/2 seedless cucumber*, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/4-inch pieces
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Stir together bulgur and 1 tablespoon oil in a heatproof bowl. Pour boiling water over, then cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let stand 15 minutes. Drain in a sieve, pressing on bulgur to remove any excess liquid.

Transfer bulgur to a bowl and toss with remaining ingredients, including 2 tablespoons oil, until combined well.

Verdurette?

I haven't made this yet myself, though I've been meaning to for years....

To quote an online article: ..."Verdurette is a Provencal-style vegetable stock concentrate. Once you have a jar of it in the fridge (or cool cellar), you can throw away those dubious cubes of bouillon, those tasteless cans of commercial broth. Plain rice takes on new savor, bean dishes and stews are more richly flavored. A little Verdurette goes a long way, and it will keep for up to a year, so you don’t have to make it often...."

I really have no idea what the name of this is...

Chop up:
2 cucumbers or zucchini
1 yellow squash (or another of the above if you can't get it)
1 red onion
1 small bunch green onions
1 small bunch parsley

Add to it:
1 c. corn
1 can drained pinto beans (or whatcha got)
1 c. quinoa (I've also used barley)
1 good handful some sort of sprouts

Toss with:
2T each apple cider vinegar, olive oil and lemon juice.

Let it sit overnight, if possible. Serve with some chopped tomato if you so desire but I leave them out because I hate tomatoes.
