Holubsti--Ukranian Cabbage Rolls

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 00:45:38 -0500

I spent 18 months in central Canada, serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. While I was there, I fell in love with the people and the food, specifically Ukrainian and Filipino food. The cabbage rolls were my favorite, and when I returned to the US, I began searching for recipes, but could never find one that I liked. This recipe comes from me combining elements of two or three different recipes that I found. The resulting recipe is surprisingly easy--if a bit labor intensive. I included instructions to make a sauce, but, if you run out of energy, the stuff in a can works just as well. If I want to do a homemade sauce, I usually do it a day or so in advance., By omitting the meat, this can be a vegetarian dish. By also omitting the sour cream and using margarine instead of butter, it can be vegan. -- posted by CorianneW

Brussels Sprouts in Soy Sauce

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 01:23:17 -0500

My wife and I love Brussels sprouts and this is our favorite way to prepare them. It's our own creation and so good that I'm amazed I have never seen a similar recipe anywhere. The flavors of the sprouts and the soy sauce seem made for each other. The recipe is quick and so simple that it can be thrown together as a side vegetable any time sprouts are on hand. I always use Tamari soy sauce, but anything you have on hand will do fine. And I always use olive oil, but butter or another vegetable oil would be fine if you prefer. -- posted by Cowshill

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 01:56:40 -0500

Vegan comfort food! This recipe is inspired by one from Alex Jamieson's The Great American Detox Diet, but modified quite a bit by me. If you have picky eaters at your house, you can leave the mushrooms on the side and let each person decide whether to add them to his/her bowl. -- posted by Prose

Vegan Creamy Corn Chowder

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 01:57:03 -0500

This is a very simple recipe. I use unsweetened 'MimicCreme' for all my cream based soups. It is made from a blend of almonds and cashews and is dairy free, cholesterol free, gluten free, 100% natural, kosher and of course, vegan. It can be ordered from mimiccreme.com or Amazon.com. The mimicreme.com web site also lists retail locations where it can be purchased. Of course, feel free to use any non-dairy substitute, such as soy, almond or hemp milk, but it may not be as creamy (you can always thicken with 1 tablespoon flour + 1 tablespoon water or broth). -- posted by CinLin

Baked Pasta With Tofu Cheese (Vegan)

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 01:57:16 -0500

More vegan comfort food! I modified this recipe from the Whole Foods Web site. In place of (or in addition to) the mushrooms try black olives, vegetarian pepperoni slices, bell peppers, artichoke hearts...whatever you wish. Works well with gluten-free pasta. Serve with salad and garlic bread. -- posted by Prose

Simple Carrot Soup With Lentils

Tue, 29 Dec 2009 02:26:55 -0500

This is hardly a recipe, but a very simple way turning a lot of carrots into supper. I found this recipe at http://glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.com/ when looking for something simple to use up my tons of carrots. I added lentils to make it a main course. The lentils don't affect the taste and add protein, fiber, iron and other goodies, but you can leave them out for an even simpler recipe. You can also use any unsweetened, unflavored nondairy milk in place of the soy milk. My 8-year-old daughter loves this soup. -- posted by Kumquat Knickers

Pleasantly seasoned, the delightful vegan soup is very filling and chock full of nutrients. The orzo make for a great one-dish meal. Feel free to use fresh squash puree, out of budget and convenience I use the bricks of pureed squash from the freezer section. 2 are needed for this recipe.

Summer Vegetable Gratin

Tue, 05 Jan 2010 11:46:36 -0500

While this recipe calls for summer vegetables, my brother and SIL prepared it for Christmas dinner 2009 and I loved it. Good as a vegetarian main dish or a side. It's not quite the same as other vegetable gratins already on RecipeZaar. Personally, I would make this with less olive oil, the amount of which I specified in the ingredients, but you can use the original amount if you prefer (just convert teaspoons to tablespoons). This can also be made ahead after assembly and before baking. Just pre-heat the oven. Try to buy the zucchini and squash of roughly the same diameter. I might serve this with bread to soak up the juices. To make this vegan, omit the parmesan cheese. They found this recipe on America's TV test kitchen. -- posted by Kumquat the Cat's friend

Vegan Potatoes

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 15:07:33 -0500

A simple recipe for people who are vegetarian and/or transitioning to vegan. Theres not a lot of vegan recipes on here, so I decided to post it. It's something simple that's a good thing to have for lunch or even as a side dish. It gives a lot of nutrients and you really cant taste them in with the potatoes, for those of you who are picky eaters like me. I left his really open, I put in peppers and mushrooms, but this recipe is very easy to turn into a "Clear Your Kitchen Of Unwanted Or About To Spoil Veggies" recipe. And it's good because it's healthy, filling, and uses no meat and or animal products. Enjoy. -- posted by Mariah Me

Cabbage With Caraway

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:23:29 -0500

This is my mother's recipe - I don't know where she got it from. It is a great way to cook cabbage, which leaves it slightly crunchy and tasting delicious. Nothing like the awful boiled cabbage you remember from school! Cabbage is very good for you, as it contains anti-oxidants, vitamin C and all sorts of other things. Try this as a vegetable with chops or burgers and plain boiled potatoes. You can use leftover cabbage and potato to make Bubble and Squeak. -- posted by SarahEmmm

Roasted Tomato Sauce

Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:32:59 -0500

This is inspired by Janet and Greta's roasted tomatoe sauce they used on their canneloni show but I didn't have some of the ingredients they used so I improvised it. One pound of my tomatoes were heirloom tomatoes in various colors just cause I happened to have them on hand. The chicken broth was made from roasted chicken bones to give it a deeper flavor as well. -- posted by Ladymedic

This is a really healthy, fat free, vegan soup, which is so think it is almost solid. If you are trying to loose weight, this will keep you full and give you loads of vitamins and fibre without many calories. It is also really tasty and can be a great way of using up left over veggies. You can use any root vegetables, I like it with swede, carrot and butternut squash. I have listed individual pulses, but it is much easier to use the 'soup mix' selection which you can buy in the shops. -- posted by renjack

It can be easily modified to be vegetarian/vegan by using vegetable broth (or base) and soy cheese. -- posted by Ashleybakes

A vegan adaptation of a Cantonese-American favorite. Not hard to make but takes some time to stuff the wontons. Serve the wontons in a mild, low sodium vegetable broth (chicken flavor if possible).

Harissa-Spiked Houmous

Wed, 03 Feb 2010 10:38:58 -0500

This recipe is delicous -- for a nosh, cocktail party or just an evening snack! I love these kinds of appetizers because they don't take much time, this one is vegan -- so almost anyone can eat it. I like to serve them with Pita Crisps: preheat oven to 375ºF. Split 6 pitas hrizontally into circles, then cut each circle into 6 triangles. Lay them in a single layer, rough side up, on 2 or 3 baking sheets. Use a pastry brush to brush triangles with olive oil, then sprinkle with fennel seeds and a pinch of sea salt or instead of fennel and sea salt use Mrs Dash salt free seasonings. For example: Table Blend, Original or Garlic & Herb, these have a flavor all their own -- try it you might like it. These can be made about a week ahead, just store in airtight container. -- posted by Manami

Vegan Dlt (Dulse, Lettuce, and Tomato) Sandwiches

Dulse is a delicious and very nutritious sea vegetable. Its salty flavor and crispy texture make it an excellent substitute for bacon in this sandwich with much less sodium and fat than the "real" thing. -- posted by Prose

The Neely's say this is their kind of soup-it has plenty of atitude! A little heat gives it a smoky undertone and a garnish of avocado relish balances the flavors! Serve with cornbread or a grilled cheese sandwich. From Down Home with the Neely's cookbook. -- posted by Sharon123
