[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for all the feedback. To vegetarian PP, I understand what you are saying regarding flavors coming from spices, but meat does bring a depth of flavor that is hard to explain/imitate. The closest match I've found (in terms of depth of flavor, not in the flavor itself) is caramelized onions or maybe a strong cheese. To the PP who asked for specific recipes I'm thinking about, this is more of a general question, but things like bean soup (usually I throw some ham in there); chili (maybe the smoke flavoring or chipotle is the one to try there). I recently made this black bean burger recipes, which was very good -- http://allrecipes.com/recipe/homemade-black-bean-veggie-burgers/. Then I chopped up the burger and put it in tomato sauce as a meatball substitute. It was pretty good, though the "meatballs" did not hold their shape.

I am not going completely meat free, but I do want to cut back and the suggestions offered here will help. Thank you, and keep them coming![/quote]
