Mexican Stuffed Shells (Oamc)

Posted by * Pamela *  

I made this vegan by subbing vegan ground round (Yves brand) for beef and Daiya vegan cheese for the cow-y stuff. Otherwise, I followed the recipe pretty faithfully. I think I added a bit too much chili powder and made them a bit too spicy for my... — elsaturnino Oct 21, 2009

Vegan Pasta Alla Norma Vegan Eggplant Pasta

Posted by Princapessa  

This was ok but didn't rock our socks. To any aspiring vegan chefs, I would recommend whipping up some tofu-basil ricotta to make this dish more true to its origins. — elsaturnino Aug 5, 2009

Posted by Marg (CaymanDesigns)  

This really helped me out in a pinch. I used oil as the fat and it worked out perfectly. Thanks so much for this tip. — elsaturnino Jul 30, 2009

English Muffins

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Morton Design Graphics  

These turned out nicely, although maybe not as good as the ones I get at Whole Foods/my local co-op. I substituted whole wheat flour for half of the flour to give it a bit more nutrition and taste. I also veganized it by using flaxseed-water mix... — elsaturnino Jun 29, 2009

Sweet Cornbread

Posted by Mike Garcia  

My wife and I really enjoyed this recipe. It was the perfect complement to our southwestern-style corn chowder (from the "Gluten Free Vegetarian Kitchen"... yes, we know this recipe isn't gluten free ). I veganized it by replacing the eggs... — elsaturnino Jun 1, 2009

Creamed Corn

Posted by DiB's  

I totally forgot about getting creamed corn for the "chicken suiza cornbread bake" so this recipe really saved me! I only had frozen corn so I followed MommaEllen's guidelines (2 cups frozen corn, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 cup water) but... — elsaturnino Apr 28, 2009

Pecan Pie Bar Cookies

Posted by Julie*  

My wife and I had this strange urge for pecan pie for Thanksgiving but since it is one of the least veganizable items on the planet, we decided to try these. (Someone suggested making these instead of the poorly reviewed vegan pecan pie recipe... — elsaturnino Nov 29, 2008

Oatmeal Dinner Rolls

Posted by Ridgely  

Making these was a tad bit annoying. I tried using the electric mixer, as per the directions, but that turned into a sticky disaster. I had to end up adding a lot more flour (0.5 cup maybe...probably could have even used more) just to make it... — elsaturnino Nov 29, 2008

Potato Bread (using instant potato and dry milk)

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Aroostook  

I was pretty worried that this recipe was going to be a bust. After 30 minutes of baking, I checked the bread. The top was getting close to being burnt but the internal temp of the bread was only 120F. I decided to stick it out and leave it in for... — elsaturnino Oct 30, 2008

Kittencal's Hamburger/Burger Buns

Posted by KITTENCAL  

Sadly, these didn't turn out well for me. I wasn't working with a stand mixer so I didn't know exactly how sticky the dough should be (I think I left it much too sticky). They also didn't rise up during baking, they just spread out so they were... — elsaturnino Oct 19, 2008

Sabrina's Sandwich Bread

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Ridgely  

I only have a single 9x5 loaf pan so I changed the servings to 1.25 loaves and it turned out perfectly. This is the third loaf of bread I've made the past few weeks and it is, by far, the best texture and taste. The salt content did seem a bit... — elsaturnino Oct 5, 2008

White Chocolate/Coconut/Macadamia Cookies

Posted by Ocean~Ivy  

I was looking for something to use my white chocolate chips one and I stumbled upon this recipe. I vegan-ized it by using margarine in place of butter and using flaxseed/water as an egg replacer. The result, while not looking all that pretty, was... — elsaturnino Jul 11, 2008

Creamy Swiss Chard Pasta

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Derf  

Easily veganized this recipe by substituting unsweetened soy milk for 2% milk and Tofutti sour cream for the result sour cream. I really liked it (4.5 stars) but my wife felt like it was missing a little something (maybe some lemon zest) and rates... — elsaturnino Mar 30, 2008
