lol. Youre asking a bunch of crispy jews if they follow catholic practices.
Dont believe in Jesus or the Easter bunny because they are basically the same thing. Now Santa Claus is a whole other story. That mofo is for realz.

But since this isn't anything goes I guess I should put a real answer too
..Just eat the meat or if you're really going to follow it then eat fish like UA_Iron recommended.
Isn't lent almost over anyways?

As a catholic, i can drink my protein shakes, or fish.... , I just opt for the shakes. Being a vegetarian, a minimal one at that, once a week for 7 weeks isnt gonna kill anyone or hurt their gains
I have always tried to keep with the fish and bread diet on Fridays and it's not really that much of a difference. But the only issue is forgetting not to eat meat. I'm catholic but not the bible beater type. My mom on the other hand is old school Irish catholic. Plus I've got two daughters who hate fish. This wasn't really a religious question just wondering if anyone followed to no meat on Fridays for lent during cycle season.
How the hell can anyone hate fish? It's delicious!
Okay, it is when I make it.
I suppose if you've only eaten spoiled fish fried in rancid oil, it would ruin it for you for life.

i gave up being catholic for Lent!!!
Was raised Catholic, observed Lent and all the other beliefs I was taught
Became after years agnostic and finally today I consider myself an Atheist.
And for all the good Catholics out there, I'll eat extra meat on Fridays just for you!!

Shrimp Scampi
Scampi Butter, recipe below
1 pound raw peeled and deveined 16 to 20 count shrimp, with tail on
2 ounces shredded Parm cheese
1 diced avocado
Spaghetti Squash, recipe below
Directions
Place 2/3 of the scampi butter in a large saute pan over high heat and melt. Add in shrimp and cook for about 2 minutes, moving shrimp around in the pan. Cook until shrimp are opaque, only about another 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the remaining scampi butter, Parm cheese, and avocado chunks. Serve over hot spaghetti squash
Scampi Butter:
1/4 pound butter, softened
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced onion (I prefer red onions for color)
1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley leaves
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon sea/kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Dash Worcestershire sauce
Juice of 1 lemon
In a bowl with a wire whisk, mix together all ingredients until well blended.
Spaghetti Squash:
1 spaghetti squash (about 3 pounds)
Slice squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon as you would a pumpkin. Then submerge both halves in boiling water and cook for about 25 minutes, or until the inside is tender to a fork and pulls apart in strands. Remove, drain, and cool with cold water or an ice bath to stop the cooking. Then use a fork to scrape the cooked squash out of its skin, and at the same time, fluff and separate the squash into spaghetti-like strands.

Thanks Jodi, gonna try those recipes.
Try a cod or halibut fillet, salt and pepper, lightly dust with flour or cornstarch, and panfry in a hot pan with butter and garlic until crispy and golden on both sides. Squeeze of lemon and you're good to go. Catfish is amazing this way btw, but it's invariably riddled with worms so be prepared to pick them out as you eat - or ignore them and enjoy the interesting texture of the extra protein they provide lol!

All my life I've never liked eating fish but now that I'm looking to clean up my diet eating fish has'nt been so bad depending on how well I prepare it. So far my favorite clean recipe is taking fresh cod and dipping the fillets in honey dijon mustard thats mixed with a tsp of olive oil to coat both sides. Then I dredge the fillets in a separate bowl that has a mixture of about 1/4c dry oats (or you can use whole wheat panko bread crumbs), 1tsp olive oil, 1 tsp freshly chopped thyme, salt, pepper. Place on pan in oven and bake. The fish comes out amazingly crispy and the taste is just awesome! You can barely notice a fish taste (if your palate is sensitive to that taste).
I stopped being Catholic when I read this:
1 Timothy 3:4-6 (Contemporary English Version)
4Church officials must be in control of their own families, and they must see that their children are obedient and always respectful. 5If they don't know how to control their own families, how can they look after God's people?
Funny how all the priests never had wives or children.

I didnt thingk this was a catholic bashing thread, it was asking catholics what they eat during lent's fast if they dont eat meat on fridays....
So where does the above say a priest MUST be married? if you read the entire passage in context, you would see there is not rule that one must be married. MArriage, celebacy and the pristhood is a discipline within teh catholic church, elders who are converts from the anglican or episcopalian or greek churches may become catholic priests, move their ordinations over and remain married, they dont ahve to wait for their spouse to die.
lol, seriously? bashing? How about the rule the Priests must not be married. Yeah they made that the rule and we all know what it produced, a haven for NAMBLA members!
I worship the sun. This means that I can eat whatever I want whenever I want and won't be judged, however I won't be rewarded with an after-life either but that's ok. It makes me appreciate the only true heaven and paradise we will ever witness, Earth right now.
Just read some science books, realise how wrong you are and get jerked as a mofo, no unecessary sin or shame required.

I'm afraid my days of making heaven a priority as well listening to one that would be considered a commie are very much over. This sad and sick means of economics and such here on earth is far more relevant in matters for attention and/or thinking, and should be a first priority. Hell and Heaven, are two places you must die in order to get to, and everyone is going. I think, I might pass on both.

like I said, this thread was about dietary concerns during a tradition withint eh church and how catholics could eat an alternative diet during that state.....
but you digress again with shades of NAMBLER and stuff.. it is unfortunate gay pedophiles choose to work in schools, day cares and as priests in this world and we don't always see it when it is happening.... but that is another subject matter and a digression again....
St Paul was not married, St Peters was a widower and not maried, in fact, we have no tradition of any apostle being married at the time of their calling.... Marriage was allowable in the early days but the tradition of non marriage came about because of the issues of haivng a family while being an elder and just like the early rulers of the church 100 AD made rules to protect their churches, teh catholic church later integrated the no marriage discipline. Nothing wrong with that. NOTHING wrong wit that.
the problem is YOU think if someone is not allowed to get married, they are automatically going to become a pedophile or gay.... Many men are not married out of choice in today's world, the priesthood is just one instance where that choice is made clearer to the world of their intent. Doesn't mean they are gay or pedophiles. HOWEVER, in society, where there are children, there will be the scum of society entering in to take advantage of the opportunity. Non marriage of priests is not the reason why there were pedophiles, less than 1% of priests, maybe much less were found) but rather it was because there will always be an element of scum everywhere you look, teachers, day cares, boys clubs, everywhere.... and it marrs the organizations when it happens, just that since the catholic church teaches morality, finding that element there makes them look hypocritical. Maybe the could have handled the issue with more grace but they didnt.... many ministers are married in protestant circles and the rate of divorce among them is no different than society as a whole, the Swagartt and Baker controversies, infidelities doesnt mean that when you are a minister or a priest, you are perfect, just that men, whether they have a predisposition to cheating on their wives, stealing from teh coffers, diddling kids is a sign of the sickness we have in society and people will take advantage of the cloth and hide behind it, like they do as boy scout leaders or teachers. I prefer to think og them as having abused their position for personal gain. that is the last I will asy in this....
Everyone has the right to beleive what they want in life, it doesnt make you right or me wrong, what it means that we ar responsible for our individual choices in this world and if I happen to believe in a God, I'll pray for you for the betterment of society and of yoruself and if you dont believe in one or beleive diferently, you can wish my luck in what I do also and we part as friends... and when we see illnesses such as gay pedofiles molesting little boys ONLY, we know it is a sickness and we all, from all sides, come together in disgust.
