Come join the Vegan Home Cooks!
Participation is really easy, just take a picture of what you cooked today and post it, no recipes needed.
This is a public forum for a discord server of friends who are all vegans and cook at home for their families.
We are here to share some inspiration, to see what others are doing and to stay engaged in something that is both our hobby and a required task.
This forum is not a "food porn" community, a recipe book or a place to teach you how to cook. It is a place for people who already cook to meet other people like themselves and provide on topic support and conversation as much as long distance friends on the internet can do. We are doing show and tell about what we made and we don't care about its instagram worthiness.
Veganism isn’t a diet but I have to eat every day. This is for the vegan home cooks. Anything non vegan will be deleted.
Rules
1. Be Vegan.
If it is not vegan it doesn’t belong here… or anywhere.
2. Post home cooking.
No restaurant or fast food. This is what every other vegan space is about and we don’t want to promote any large or small business tyrants.
We’re an active community of vegan home cooks that like to talk about what we are cooking today.
4. Do not make any rude comments or digs at anyone’s food, cooking style, specific diet, restrictions or technique.
While we are all cooks, we all have different requirements and we’re not asking for help, we are doing show and tell.
5. Do not use trademarked brands
Use generic names. We’re cooking with tvp not whatever business brands it and we’re not trying to turn comrades into billboards. No plant-based vegan-pandering capitalist crap like Impossible, Beyond, Dairy-company owned “vegan” cheese.
6. Do not ask for a recipe without otherwise engaging the OP (No posts that are just “recipe?”)
We are not food bloggers. Sometimes we're excited to share and will tell you the recipes we used but this isn't required. Instead try doing your own research and tell us what you learned and we can talk about it.
7. Careful with making unasked for suggestions.
Sometimes we like to hear suggestions but you should be nice about it and know the person you are making suggestions to. We are in the discord and you can get to know us that way. If you are just a visitor from the fediverse, this isn’t the place for you to start telling other people what to do.
8. Adults Only.
While this isn't a community for adult material we expect everyone who participates to be an adult. If you have a gross and profane username you will be removed.

Lots of chopping but definitely worth it. Coated the tofu in extra garlic sriracha and air fried. The dressing was a bit of an experiment as I didn't quite have ingredients from a recipe I found but it worked well anyway (light soy sauce, fresh lime juice, agave, raw garlic, chilli crisp)

I just cooked some lentils with garam masala and adjacent hot spices with some vegetables in the instant pot and made bulgur in my regular pot. I mixed it up when I ate it.
156
Hearty soup made from navy beans, corn, squash, tomatoes and seasonings with a simple salad
157
the nuggets are a mix of mashed white or cannellini beans, cooked chopped greens, quinoa, ground flax, a jar of baby food (lol), spices and vital wheat gluten. breaded with vegan buttermilk (soy milk + lemon juice and apple cider vinegar and left to curdle for a while) and whole wheat panko

Polo Gojeh - Persian rice with potatoes, soy curls, string beans and tomatoes
(cdn.discordapp.com)
I parboiled some rice then mixed it with advieh, tomato paste, cubed potatoes, string beans, soy curls, salt, pepper. Then in a pot I sliced up 2 potatoes and lined the bottom with it and covered them with just enough water and brought to a boil, then I added the rice on top, lidded it and steamed it high heat for 10 minutes, I removed the lid, added more water, lowered the temperature and let it steam another 10 minutes with a less tightly sealed lid.
Served with tofu cream.

Based mostly on the serious eats recipe. We added siracha to the Mayo, and smashed avacado to the toasted bun.
I also don’t think the marinade needs to go on the tofu much before grilling. Just a quick rub to get the color for grilling. Then I spread a layer of the marinade on the bun.
Portland pub bun. Game changer.

Quick pasta I made in the instant pot. I should have used more tomatoes I guess but it was really savory with a brown sauce that is in the bottom of the dish.

Okay, perhaps not the most visually impressive meal ever. But it sure was delicious.
I tend to prefer using natural ingredients like mushrooms and nuts rather than artificial / highly processed meat substitutes when cooking vegetarian or vegan meals.
This was not terribly difficult or complex to make (finely chopping the mushrooms took a while though). I definitely recommend giving this recipe a try even if you're not vegan.

Homemade kimchi and of course...tahini.

I took a few photos to show the different steps. I cooked the zucchini, carrots and tomatoes in an electric pressure cooker then added lentils, beans, pepper, spices for round two.
All the veg appart from the carrots and ginger are from the garden.

Frozen berry mix, quick oats, chia seeds, hemp hearts and ground flax seeds.
I stole the "recipe" from an expensive breakfast cereal my coworker used to eat every day at work. It's very filling and has a lot of fiber.
(Edited to upload a different picture after it 'cooked'. Whoops!)

Recipe is basically juice of fresh oranges, rice vinegar, soy sauce, frozen veggies, garlic powder, sesame seeds, cornstarch, ginger powder, chili paste, maple syrup. I just mixed and adjusted everything until I liked the taste.
I soaked tvp chunks for 15 minutes before dumping cornstarch in it and put it in the oven for 20 mins at 200C° before dumping it in the sauce
I served it alongside rice

Gem lettuce and avocado, Oumph Taco Spiced Mince, homemade salsa (with tomatoes from the in-laws' garden), Lidl's feta style vegan cheese, and picked peppers
