Green and a bit envious

Often the vegetarian option is just as appealing as the alternative. Lasagne. Butternut squash ravioli. Eggplant parmesan. Other times I encounter a veggie version of a dish that is usually fine in its own right, but lacks the glorious splendor that graces the non-veg dish offers. This was true for the mighty Tajine in San Francisco. Mine was a fine blend of peas and artichoke hearts in a tasty green, creamy broth. But next to the meaty version, complete with clay hat and a multi-colored dream coat of vegetables, mine was, well, the color of envy.
