Jump to: Newest in thread
I have a friend who will be staying once a week at my house until the summer.
I am happy to cook for her and try and eat Vegan food once a week.
Anyone have any decent recipe/dishes I can have a bash at? |

I've got about 50 vegan recipe books here. What kind of food do you fancy cooking? Fancy shit or simple but tasty? Bog standard ingredients or 'interesting' ones that have to be hand picked in outer Mongolia? Let me know what you're looking for and I'm sure I can send you some recipes  |

Hello thanks for getting back to me. I’m thinking simple stuff to start with. I’m doing a Tagine for tomorrow.
She’s a really good friend so I’m not out to impress. |

Tacos are always super easy. You can make various fillings so it’s still a sociable dinner even if you have a vegan option as well as meat.
I love black bean and sweet potato tacos  |

I have a very good chickpea curry recipe if that tickles your fancy? Not too complicated but the flavours are great. |

"Casereccia pollo piccante" is a spicy chicken pasta dish in a rich creamy sauce. You might have had it at Zizzi's.
Delete the chicken, and swap the cream for soya milk and it's the best vegan meal we've ever had.
Recipe available online.

Typically, I can't find the book right now (it's called Prashad, 100% recommend for veggie Indian food), but I've got a great enchilada recipe I'll message you. |

"take a gander for ideas
A gander isn't vegan. It is a male goose.
Hahahahahahahaha
I mean, ganders are predominantly vegan, they eat grass, it's just the people that eat them aren't  "
They're omnivores |

Are they really? I had no idea! I know chickens are, they're savages, heaven forbid they get hold of a mouse or frog in my garden  Even the Jack Russell is scared of them! |

The Minimalist Baker blog has loads of great vegan recipes (you can filter for vegan only).
Good general ideas are chillis (I like black bean and squash), curries (daal, chickpea, veg, Thai curries with tofu), stir fries (veg, or with added marinated tofu/tempeh), Mediterranean roast veg/hummus/mezze, soups, lots of pasta dishes (google "kale lemon tomato pasta" for a good one-pot recipe) - the list goes on...! |

Have you considered eating out or take aways?
Monks Vegetables & Bean curd (Tofu) with rice & sweet & sour sauce from the Chinese take away?
Local Curry House - they surely must do vegetarian dishes other than salad?
Pizza take aways?
Japenese/Tai food take outs? |

soups are quite easy & work well this time of year.
I use lentils & sweet potatoes, garlic, some miso stock, & onions & green & red peppers.
-Sometimes i'll add a little bit of pasta if you want to thicken it.
Vegan pizza is also worth a try, if you want to make something quickly. |

Stir fry is quickest, easiest and healthiest.
Mushrooms, pepper, red onion, sugar snap peas and baby corn all in a giant wok. I use garlic infused olive oil but veg oil is ok. Bit of seasoning and its a good un.
Do it with rice or noodles (I use egg but vegan ones available).
Drizzle with sweet chilli sauce, or other of your choice, on serving (although you can mux in the wok if you prefer).
Tastes great done properly. All prepared, cooked and served in under 15 minutes. Hardly any clearing up after either.
Asda do vegan crispy spring rolls which are quick and easy and taste good.
I have veggie friends who say they prefer mine to a proper chinese because it is non oily, you can taste the veg and it has lots of texture.
I love my meat but happily eat this a couple of times a week. |

I had some of those spring rolls from ASDA at the weekend, they were very very good! |
