Fat Free Vegan Recipes and lifestyle

[vagina]

Mushrooms
Potatoes
Veggies, assorted chopped
Seasoning


Boil water for potatoes, boil until cooked.

Heat pan with a layer of water. Add chopped onion, garlic, ginger and mushrooms. Sprinkle with seasonings. I used curry, cumin, marjoram, mint, basil and a drop of smokey flavor. Also add the juice of a lemon. Keep on medium heat and stir every 3-5 minutes until mushrooms are mostly cooked. Make sure skillet never gets too dry, you need to keep adding water for steaming. Add chopped veggies or greens on top and steam for another 5-10 minutes. When potatoes are cooked, chop into quarters or eighths and add to the stew. Marinade flavors together and serve.

Your recipe sounds so good. Hope you'll post more of your fave recipes and tips. Tonight I'm having a casserole I love made with red onions, rainbow swiss chard, broccoli, red onion, artichoke hearts, carrots, green beans, garlic, brussel sprouts, balsamic vinegar, and tofu shirataki noodles.

Drool, drool, drool. Sounds yummy. I definitely want some right now.



Here's Dinner:

Mushroom soup
-3 cloves of garlic chopped
-2 packages of organic mushrooms chopped (about 4 cups?)


Here is the brand of mushrooms that I buy from the Korean store. Mix 1/2 dark buttons and 1/2 white buttons.


Bring 2-4 cups of water to boil. Add garlic and mushrooms. Let boil for 3-5 minutes until mushrooms are soft yet still retain a little chewiness. Let sit for 3-5 minutes.


Soba Primavera
-2 big handfuls of spring greens
-2 carrots chopped or grated
-1/3 cup cauliflower florets chopped
-36 oz buckwheat soba noodles (or any kind of grain)
-2 small fingers of turmeric chopped

Bring a pot of water to boil. Put turmeric into mesh bag and let sit in water while water comes to a boil. This will add flavor and color to whatever you cook. Add soba noodles to cook until soft, approximately 7 minutes, taste to confirm. Strain noodles and add on top of veggies.

In large bowl combine spring greens, carrots, and cauliflower. Add noodles on top and mix.

Both recipes do not use any salt or oil.


The rest of the day:
1/2 large watermelon- 700 calories
19 bananas- 1900 calories
Dinner- 1200-1400 calories
4 liters/ 1 gallon water

I love mushroom soup and those look good! There is a vegan Korean restaurant that I love in NYC called Hangawai, and they make a great mushroom soup (also love Thai mushroom soups when they don't have fish ingredients).

Tonight I made a soup also, with lots of water, a carton of vegan broth low sodium, a whole organic green cabbage, lots of green onions, 1 tblespn low sodium soy sauce, curry powder, carrots, and celery.

Yesterday-

1/2 watermelon
19 bananas, 3 plums, 1 date
4 cups oil free rice curry with mushrooms, carrots, cauliflower, tomato, avocado, turmeric, garlic, shallots, nutritional yeast.

Recipe:

1 cup rice
1/4 cup mung beans
3-4 cups King Trumpet mushrooms chopped (pictured above)
3 carrots chopped
2 florets cauliflower chopped
1-2 tomatoes sliced
1/2 avocado
1 finger turmeric grated
1/2 head garlic, chopped
1-2 shallots chopped
nutritional yeast to taste (I used about 4 Tbsp.)

Boil 4 cups water, add turmeric. When boiling add garlic, shallots, and mushrooms. After 5 minutes add rice and mung beans. Turn down temperature to slow boil. When the mung beans are almost cooked, add the rest of the ingredient, except for tomatoes. Keep cooking until the whole mixture is nice and creamy. While cooking, keep adding water if it gets too thick. You are aiming for a creaming curry texture. Serve with tomato slices on top.

I watched EARTHLING also. I think my problem is, if I was living alone I could easily be a vegetarian/vegan with no looking back. However, I'm married and and my spouse is a meat eater. Also, I can't find an alternative to the half & half that I put in my coffee. I e tried everything: soymilk, almond milk, cashew milk, and nothing is as creamy. The plant milks are too watery in coffee for my taste, but I like them on their own. Also good vegan cheese is hard to find around here and it can be rather expensive. I could probably give up cheese cold turkey but the half & half............

[Kätzchen]

Bump Bump !

[Gayandgray]

Has anyone ever followed the McDougall plan? It’s starch based but from what little I read it seems to be vegan as well?
