Made the potato-carrot mac and cheese sauce, tofu-egg salad, homemade chickwheat deli slices. Quick assembly! Already shared this with the Discord crowd lol

This tabbouleh takes a lot of chopping but so worth it! The parsley stays crisper when hand chopped vs food processor. The ingredients are simple: parsley, mint, tomato, green onion, supposed to be bulgur but my local store didn't carry any so cous cous, lemon juice, and olive oil. Salt and pepper.

Accompanying the green deliciousness is store bought vegan tzatziki, roasted red pepper hummus, falafel made from mix, and pita. A perfect summer lunch.

I made this without oil

Handmade noodles and tofu veggie wontons. Took me too much time but it was worth it! Broth had peanut butter, sesame oil, and soy sauce.

Edit: Here are the recipes I got each soup item from:

1. Noodles - only used the noodle recipe
2. Broth - added and subtracted items because I didn’t have all the ingredients from the recipe
3. Wonton filling - I used the filling recipe for this one. If you don’t have time for making your own wrappers, wontons are fine too. I recommend a pastry brush to help apply the water on the edges for sealing.

~50 wontons took me 3-4 hours to make. The noodles takes 2.5 hours and the broth takes about 5 minutes of prep.

I made a dressing from tahini, balsamic, mustard, date syrup, herbs and spices

frozen bananas + strawberry jam + rice milk

That's it :)

I made the teriyaki sauce with apple cider 😋

Made the burgers from cooked and blended soy chunks. Made the mung egg too.

edit: changed the name

with kale, portabellas, roasted red bell peppers, onions, and garlic

I got these metal plates from a restaurant supply place to make me feel like I'm an Indian restaurant

I made a basic potato leek soup and blended half of it to make it creamy and also have chunks because I like biting potatoes in my soup. No recipe really just mirepoix, evoo, leeks, garlic, potatoes (russets and yellow, just what was in the potato cellar aka the hanging basket in the bathroom), thyme, bay leaves, marjoram, s&p, msg, veggie stock and some shaved nutmeg. The polenta was from another meal but made really nice dipping

I don't have a full kitchen right now so boiled water and added 1 drinking glass of pasta for a few mins then added a few handfuls of veggies from a stir fry kit (I used the left overs from the beans and rice posted before), once all bright in color I strained it out (reserving a bit of water). The pasta was still a little firm on purpose. I put it back in the pot and added some tomato sauce (reserved a bit less than half from the rice and beans), Italian seasoning mix, salt, pepper, and some pasta water. I cooked it a bit to combine.

My fam got a couple salsas to try and they were both pretty mid, so I made mac outta them

I've used this as inspiration, tho never fully constructed the exact salad dressing as described. I definitely love some peanut dressing with lettuce, tho!

Kabocha, broccoli, peanuts, sesame seeds, kimchi, and rice noodles. I made the broth out of soy sauce, gochujang, and a little mushroom bouillon powder

This is the first meal in my new apartment!

I didn't pack any knives because I flew so its pre-cut stir fry veg, a can of tomato sauce and a can of red beans with seasonings and some white rice. Came out super good!

This is a pretty simple but solid bean salad. I try to cut everything to roughly the same size. BTW, if you want a smaller portion and you want to use canned beans, you can usually find a three bean mix in one can.

I finally got around to buying some wheat gluten, and I hope to make some seitan or similar in the next week or so.
I'm looking for tips from more experienced vegans on recipes that are simple (few steps and ingredients) and also tasty enough to make someone want to experiment more.
Please don't put too much effort into this as I'm liable to lose motivation and take weeks actually getting around to it.

Made this cake today using a recipe from Addicted to Dates. Ended up using animal crackers for the crust since I couldn’t find honey-free graham crackers nor digestive biscuits. Came out great though!

Used tahini instead of oil to line the casserole
