Lots of lenten recipes and lenten variants offered for recipes. There 
are period Islamic recipes that are "fake meat"--"A Counterfeit 
Isfiriya of Garbanzos," for example.

Running through the Miscellany, there are Armored Turnips, Fried 
Gourd, Perre, Lang Wortes de Pesone, On Preparing Carrots and 
Parsnips, Makke, Fried Broad Beans, ...  and that's just from the 
first few pages of recipes.

So far as pies are concerned ... . If you are willing to use cheese, 
Tart on Ember Day is yummy. Spinach Tart is good. Le Menagier has 
Mushroom Pastries.

All in the Miscellany:
