Vegan Recipes

Long story short, I have decided to attempt to develop a foolproof recipe for falafel parm, whereby I make falafel patties in place of chicken, and then make an imitation chicken parm out of it.

There will be several aspects to this, including homemade gratable vegan cheese with kappa carageenan for meltiness, but that's an entire other part of the endeavor. Meanwhile I do need a good patty recipe that hits many of the same notes as a breaded & fried chicken patty or cutlet.

I'm well aware that good falafel is made with whole chickpeas soaked overnight and lots of herbs. I love that kind, but it's not what I'm going for here. I personally also love cheap falafel, and for my falafel parm, I want something closer to box mix that kinda ends up in the same flavor-space as frozen breaded chicken patties - better than school lunch, but not highfalutin' by any means.

I suppose I could just look into a boxed mix, but I figured I'd ask and see if anybody has any favorite recipes perhaps starting from chickpea flour, or maybe dried chickpeas cooked in an Instant Pot or something like that.

Got a functioning crockpot for 5 dollars at my local reuse/recycling/thrift store. Looking for good vegan recipes I can use it for.

There’s nothing quite like the smell of homemade bread. And this seedy, whole-grain loaf is a fool-proof version.

This cake melts in your mouth! Recipe is being circulated, looks delicious and most of all...easy to make, thought I would share.

I have only ever eaten couscous as a salad add on. For preparation I add oil, garlic powder, soy sauce, and then cover with boiling water. I then add this to my salad, or fill a bowl with couscous and add diced tomatoes and cucumber.

But I wonder how others eat and prepare their couscous.

Its so simple once you figured out which spice ingredients to pull out the cupboard.

• Smash the chickpeas,
• Put mayo in
• Spices.
• DONE!

And it tastes soooooo great! As somebody who doesnt like intense fishy tastes but still loving tuna from the days before going full plant, I find leaving out the nori doesnt change the tuna-like taste at all!

Tell me what you think/have already tried similar!

Since my feeds is working now, I figured I should contribute to the actual cause too :D

I dont see any posts in this forum, is this a me issue? (sorry am new)

EDIT: it started loading and works for now (without doing anything) ..

What's a few ingredients (fewer than 6) and "could make in less than a day" recipe for a vegan snack that's creamy like ice cream but not as cold as it?

This is the best baked tofu recipe I've ever found. It's the closest I've gotten to deep-fried taste without the mess.

Just made this. Added 1/4 cup nutritional yeast and probably roughly 1/4 cup extra vital wheat gluten I think. Also I let it rest for a full 45 minutes. Turned out great, easily shreddable! Looks just like the picture.

Next time I make this I'll just buy the crust, I think. I made the one in the recipe and it ended up melting at room temperature. I also didn't make the cookie butter drizzle. It doesn't really need it.

I tried this and it was good! Here's my feedback with it:

• I don't think the rosemary or bay leaves do much. The vegan chicken bouillon overpowered a lot of the flavor of the fresh herbs so I think using the dried stuff would work fine in a recipe like this. I might try it again with a veggie broth instead and see if I can taste the fresh herbs better that way. I think I will also try it using dried herbs to see if this can be a good weeknight dish, since I don't usually have fresh sage and thyme in my fridge.
• I added the juice of half a big lemon. I know most people use white wine but I didnt have any. I'll try that next time.

I mean beyond eggplant, every vegetables only pizza I ever had were meh.

Mushrooms was good too with the right kind.

What are your recipes?

I made homemade pickled beets for the first time. It was easy: wash, peel, boil, slice, and marinate in a simple brine (vinegar, water, garlic cloves, peppercorns, salt, etc.). A wide-mouthed mason jar is ideal. And then you have a tasty homemade side/ garnish/ pickle on-hand that you can add to any meal. Yum! Would recommend. I feel there's a lot of margin for error on this recipe, and also that I could improve my brine game over time :P. The one warning: be careful of beet juice stains! Don't let beet juice sit on something stainable if you don't want it to stain!
