Question

Bored of eatting the same thing

Answer 1

Potage de Garbanzosy Espinaca

Ingredients:

200g dried chickpeas
1 carrot, chopped
1 stick of celery, chopped
2 medium onions, chopped
large bunch of spinach, washed and chopped
1 large beef tomato
6 cloves garlic, chopped
1 bayleaf
1 tbs paprika
1 tsp sugar
salt
olive oil
Method:

Soak the chickpeas for eight hours, or overnight, in plenty of cold water.

Place the chickpeas, carrot, celery, half of the chopped onion, and the bayleaf, in a large pan. Cover with cold water, bring to the boil, and boil hard for ten minutes. Lower the heat, and simmer for one hour, or until the chickpeas are soft.

Fry the rest of the onion in a little olive oil, until softened, then add the garlic. Peel the tomato, by dropping in boiling water, then straight into cold water, which helps to loosen the skin. Chop, and add to the cooking onion and garlic, along with the paprika and sugar, and a pinch of salt. Once heated through, lower the heat, cover, and cook gently for ten minutes, stirring frequently (you may need to add a little water to prevent sticking).

At the same time, add the spinach to the chickpea pan. When the onion/tomato mixture has cooked for ten minutes, add to the chickpeas. Check the seasoning, and serve with warm chunks of bread.



Sweet potatoes with spicy black bean chili

Sweet potatoes for two people.
One can black beans.
One can Mexican seasoned stewed tomatoes.

Bake or nuke sweet potatoes until soft. While they're cooking, simmerblack beans and tomatoes together untill the mixture gets a littlethicker (about 10 minutes). Open up the sweet potatoes, mash slightlywith a fork, put the bean and tomato mixture on top. Eat.

If you're ambitious you can saute some green pepper in oil before addingthe canned stuff, and you can put some tofutti sour cream and cilantroon top.

1/3 cup warm water

1/4 tsp sugar

Answer 3

I would love to try vegan cooking and I am a died in the wool meat eater. I wouldn't worry about it. Just cook up your favorite best dishes and call it good. Your friends know you are vegan and will probably expect something yummy and different. I would. I love trying different types of foods.

Answer 4

Dominos Meat Feast Pizza

Answer 5

Veggie and Chick Pea Curry :) Throw your favorite stir-fry veggies in a pan, add a bit of curry paste (available at most grocery stores in the asian section), add a can of coconut milk, cook and enjoy! I'm not vegan, but I try to have a few no-meat meals every week. This is a favorite of mine! Try putting sweet potatoe in the mix... very yummy!

Try adding a bit of mesquite to the barbecue before grilling your vegan to improve the flavour, and be sure to marinade your vegan for days first as they can be a bit tough and stringy otherwise.
