Homemade Veggie Dogs. Af few weeks ago, my family had a craving for hot dogs, and having heard so much about Field Roast Frankfurters*, I decided to give them a try.

When I found them in the store and took a look at the package, it took a few minutes to get over my sticker shock, not at the price but at the nutritional stats. Each hot dog clocked in at 180 calories and 8 grams of fat. The ingredients list included “expeller pressed safflower oil” and “organic expeller pressed palm fruit oil,” ingredients I normally try to avoid. Still, I had promised my family gourmet hot dogs and I figured I could practice self-discipline and eat just one, so I bought them and brought them home. Huge mistake! Not because they were bad but because they were so freaking good that my vow to eat only one vanished after one bite, and the only thing saving me from complete gluttony was the fact that there were only 6 frankfurters in the package.

So I decided to make my own hot dogs for our 4th of July cookout. Ingredients. Angie's Recipes: Braised Bean Curds,红烧豆腐. How to Make Epic Vegan BBQ Tofu Wings. Before I became vegan, my dream job was to be a Buffalo and BBQ wing reviewer. My plan was to travel the world and taste every single wing that existed and review them all in a Zagat-type guide. If I was ever in a restaurant that had appetizers, I would have to order the wings. Many people talk about how they could never “live without cheese” but for me, it was chicken I thought I couldn’t live without, especially Buffalo and BBQ wings.

Then I learned the truth about where my food came from and changed the way I ate and lived. It turns out I can not only live without chicken but I don’t have to live without Buffalo and BBQ wings. It’s easy to make your own vegan wings at home using tofu, and even Buffalo Tofu Fries. There are several ways to make the wings and then the ways to coat them is endless. Here is a quick primer on how to make epic vegan BBQ tofu wings at home. 1. One way to make wings out of tofu is to cut a block of extra-firm tofu into shapes that resemble “wings” or fries.

Dublin Coddle with Vegan Irish Sausage. Finding something different to make for St. Patrick’s Day isn’t easy when you’ve never been to Ireland and have no idea how authentic any of the dishes that we Americans think of as Irish actually are. I set out looking for something different from the Corned “Beef” and Cabbage I’d made last year, something that hadn’t already been made vegan a dozen times before like Colcannon, and finally settled on Bangers and Mash, a favorite in Irish pubs in the United States. And then I saw this: “An Irish Sausage is not a Banger.” According to this Irishman, sausages are called bangers in England, but not in Ireland (though I wonder if in these multicultural times the term hasn’t been adopted in at least some parts of Ireland). So, it turns out that Bangers and Mash is not an Irish dish, and I really, really wanted an authentic Irish dish for the occasion. Coddle contains a few standard ingredients–sausage, potatoes, onions, parsley, and bacon.

Coddle before cooking (printer-friendly version) Notes. Vegan Poutine | VEGANgsta. March 6, 2013 Poutine is a Canadian favorite made of french fries, beef gravy, and cheese. It’s one of the few things that I could never have “just one bite” of and a treat that I really missed as a vegan. Luckily, this dish was very easy to veganize. I also made it healthy-ish. Kinda. The fries in this recipe are oven baked instead of deep fried. I don’t know about you, but I love baked oven fries. Beef gravy is something that I thought would be difficult to veganize well. Poutine makes great party food to share with friends. Ingredients: Instructions: First, Make Oven Fries: 1. Second, Make Vegan "Beef" Gravy: 1. Third, Assemble Poutine: 1. Vegan Toad in the Hole ~ Hef's kitchen. Biscuits and Gravy | The Southern Vegan. Recipe: Tangerine Tofu. I have already spent a good deal of time professing my love for citrus fruits, so I won’t launch into that again. However, winter’s end is rapidly approaching and whether you consider that a blessing or a bummer, it means that my beloved tangerines are making their grand exit.

I recently asked my husband for some inspiration, regarding ‘omnivore’ foods he misses. After a lot of thought (there’s not much we have want for), he came up with Orange Peel Chicken. Mmmm, that ooey-gooey sweet citrusy sauce – oh yes, I’ll happily veganize that! After some recipe investigation, I learned that there is quite a disparity between what Americans call Orange [Peel] Chicken, and the actual Chinese dish. Here, I’ve fused these two, old and new, for my own take on the template. Ingredients 1 block extra firm tofu At least 1 tablespoon tangerine zest, as much as you can get 1/2 cup fresh tangerine juice 1/2 cup vegetable broth 1/4 cup agave syrup 1 tablespoon sherry, saki, or other cooking booze Sesame seeds.

Tofu Scramble Ranchero — Adventures in Vegan Cooking - Recipes and Tutorials. The Country Vegan: Mushroom Goulash/Stroganoff. Here is another Russian/East European/German/Austrian inspired favourite of mine. I LOVE Mushrooms. I strongly believe they are a super food. Plus they taste absolutely delicious. Depending on where the inspiration comes from, this dish can be considered a goulash, which is has a stew like texture or a stroganoff, which is often creamy. Traditionally, they are served with meat however I decided to veganize this for all of you to enjoy. For those of you who are not familiar with this style of food, think of it as a sort of ragu. Ingredients: 3 tbsp safflower oil 1 small onion, diced or 1/4 cup dehydrated onions 1-3 cloves garlic, diced (add as much or as little garlic that you like) Steps: In a large skillet, warm oil and add garlic and onions.

Beer Battered Tofu Tacos with Chipotle Aioli (Vegan) - 40 Aprons. Filet O' Chickpea Sandwich with Tartar Sauce Slaw -

You know how when you’re a kid, you form minor, fleeting obsessions with things? Like when you refused to wear anything but your favorite t-shirt (mine was a Ghostbusters t-shirt, accompanied by a fisherman’s hat because who knows why?) For a month or seven? Or when you just had to watch the same movie (*cough* Goonies *cough*) every day for about 6 to 24 months? Or like when you kept in your pocket a feather that you found on the ground at school and insist on people referring to you as “Princess Star Feather,” until even you got annoyed and/or bored with it? What? I’m alone on that one? Perhaps these obsessions don’t end in childhood. Recently, however, I was revisited by an obsession from my childhood. I pushed that sandwich out of my mind for the last, well, nearly 30 years until sometime a couple of weeks ago. At first, I was happy just letting “Filet O’ Chickpea” melodically bounce around in my head.

What happened was that one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever made was born. Slaw. Making tofu - The Tofu Box. These 27 Vegan Pizzas Will Blow Your Mind. Happy Vegan Pizza Day!
