Spring Recipe Contest

Okay, this is not a contest exactly, but more of a chance to share great recipes! I know you have great recipes out there that you love to cook, and I want to try them out. Here are my requirements:

Recipes must:

• Be vegetarian, as in no meat, including fish (this is for purely selfish reasons--I can't eat meat until Easter, so I don't want to be tempted!)
• Have be a taste of spring--I think we're all getting tired of all the heavy winter food
• Include a protein
  
• Be fun to cook--this is a blog on cooking "therapy" after all
• Be relatively inexpensive to make (I'm a graduate student, I'm not rich!)
  

You can send me your recipes by adding a comment to this post, or you can email them to me at lab11198@gmail.com. All the recipes that I get by the end of March and that meet my requirements I'll make and post on this blog. I'm ready to start cooking!
