Acadia's French Green Beans

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Acadia  

What an easy and creative spin on green beans! When I tossed the hot beans with the herbs this wonderful aroma wafted into the kitchen. I think the amount of herbs is excessive for just one cup; I had lots left over on the plate and the inside of... — Valeria Oct 17, 2009

Lentil Tabbouleh

Posted by TasteTester  

This is a good all-in-one salad for vegans. It's not the type of tabbouleh I am used to, as it has way more substance and not as much parsley, but it's tasty in its own way. I used buckwheat instead of bulgur and had to boil it in 1 liter of... — Valeria Oct 11, 2009

Walnut-Mushroom Pate

Posted by Chef #885213  

I have the Veganomicon book at home and made this recipe from those detailed instructions. The pate is exquisite and delicious. I have limited equipment in my kitchen and I still found it easy to make, even without a food processor for the... — Valeria Oct 6, 2009

Chickpea Cutlets

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by emily.soulliere  

It tasted good but was extremely rubbery. One of my relatives couldn't eat it with their bad teeth. I'm not crazy about it myself because the texture just isn't that appetizing. I didn't knead it for too long, but I baked it in the oven, and the... — Valeria Oct 3, 2009

Irresistable Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies

Posted by VeganCookie :)  

These are easy to make with basic ingredients from the vegan kitchen and they're delicious! I let my cookies bake about 2-3 minutes longer than instructed because they still looked a bit pale after 8 minutes. After just two cookies I can feel the... — Valeria Oct 3, 2009

Quinoa Salad With Black Beans and Mango

Posted by Chef #895975  

This salad is so colorful and pretty. So I was pretty bummed when I realized the "scallions" (aka green onions aka spring onions) were giving me heartburn and nausea. I'm putting the salad in the fridge overnight and hoping those onions will calm... — Valeria Sep 25, 2009

Vegan Cream of Broccoli Soup

Posted by KelBel  

A fine soup, and very easy to make! My grandma raved about this one and says she wants to share it with all her friends. The blender nearly exploded on step 3, so now I know to just use the immersion and not the upright. I did step 1 as I was... — Valeria Sep 2, 2009

Magic Chocolate Mug Cake (Microwave)

Posted by Zurie  

The first time I made this I overcooked it. The second time I left it undercooked to give it a bit of a milten element at the bottom. I admit it was delicious, but at nearly 800 calories this definitely will remain a seldom sometimes food. — Valeria Aug 27, 2009

Tofu With Garlic Mirin Sauce

Posted by Tyson Hurt  

I love mirin, but this recipe doesn't do enough with it to make it really good. The only tofu I had was extra firm silken, which doesn't hold together very well in the fry pan. But on the bright side I kept looking for mirin tofu recipes until I... — Valeria Aug 27, 2009

Vegan Brownies

Posted by pollen  

I saw the one review where they substituted apple sauce for the oil. I tried pumkin puree and later added 2 tbs oil when I discovered the batter didn't taste like brownies. This did not turn out as I expected, but it's probably my own fault for... — Valeria Aug 18, 2009

Cornmeal Pancakes (Eggless)

Posted by Anu  

Except for the butter, these are a lot like arepas in taste and texture. I didn't have any syrup so I put chocolate honey on mine and they're delicious. — Valeria Jul 18, 2009

Pico de Gallo

Posted by EdsGirlAngie  

Cutting up the tomatoes was tedious and messy, especially with my dull knives, but it was worth the effort. I didn't measure the lime juice and I think I added too much, just a word to the wise. I got a jar of jalapeño rounds and just eyeballed a... — Valeria May 29, 2009

Guacamole

Posted by Teresa Johnson  

It turned out great. I live in Spain, where the white onions look more like spring onions and have a lighter flavor which is perfect for guacamole. The avocados I mashed with a hand blender because they were firm starting out. I also made pico de... — Valeria May 29, 2009

Tofu Dream Pudding and Pie Filling

Posted by DR. House  

I just made this right now and it's a delightful dessert. I used a cocoa-chocolate blend by Ghiradelli to avoid the chalky cocoa taste. Since I made this with the idea to bring some to my aunt in the nursing home tomorrow (she's a vegetarian plus... — Valeria Jun 11, 2008

Fresh Limeade and Tropical Pink Limeade

Posted by supernova  

Rick Bayless is one of my favorites, as well. This limeade turned out very good, and was worth the tedium of juicing the limes. I used honey instead of sugar because it dissolves faster. — Valeria Jun 1, 2008

Mango and Sticky Rice

Posted by Chef #794310  

I made this a few weeks back, and it tastes just like what I like to get in the restaurants. Your recipe is very simple, which I liked. Other ones called for coconut cream or peanuts and honey. I used Mexican mangoes, the small yellow kind, and... — Valeria May 11, 2008

Thai Mango Sticky Sweet Rice Dessert

Quinoa Winter Salad

Posted by justcallmetoni  

This was a good dish though a little on the bland side. I love healthy seasonal cooking and I was looking for a quinoa salad so I'm glad I could find a recipe that met both criteria. When cooking the squash and apples I added a little water to the... — Valeria Jan 8, 2008

Krupnik (Polish Mushroom Barley Soup)

Posted by Dee514  

I think having a real chicken stock is most important to this recipe. I didn't have anything but some boullion cubes, and the smell of the mushrooms was overwhelming and a little off-putting. With some homemade chicken stock I think this would... — Valeria Jan 30, 2007

Greek Lentil Soup

Posted by Jenny Sanders  

This was a great success among the adults in my house. The one kid who tried it wasn't impressed, but this is more like "grown up" food, anyways. I accidently bought kale instead of swiss chard, but it cooks about the same so it was no problem. — Valeria Jan 30, 2007
