Aussie TVP Burgers

 

Ingredients:

 

+ 3 cups of dry TVP

+ 1 grated carrot

+ egg replacer for 1 egg

+ tomato

pasta sauce or tomato paste

+ salt and seasoning to taste

+ flour

 

Directions:

 

Place the TVP and tomato paste/sauce in a bowl - you need

enough tomato sauce to

hydrate the TVP. Leave it for 15

minutes. Add grated carrot or any vegatable

that you

have. You can even add frozen peas or something similar.

 

Add enough egg replacer to the equivilant to 1 egg.

 

Spice it up! add garlic, basil, salt and pepper. Use

whatever seasonings you

prefer.

 

Form the mixture into flat balls and place them on a flour

covered plate. Fry

them up on the stove top.

 

For best results place the mixture in the fridge for a few

hours - or even

better overnight.

Mayo)

+

1/4 cup raisins

+ Soy Bacon Bits

 

Directions:

 

Wash and dry broccoli. Cut into bit-sized pieces and

place in large bowl. In

another bowl mix Vegan Mayo,

vinegar, brown sugar together. Consistency should

be

soupy, but not watery -- if it is, add a little more mayo.

 

Pour sauce over broccoli, add pine nuts. Let sit in

fridge to let broccoli soak

up flavor (usually overnight

or a few hours). Just before serving, add raisins

sprinkle with soy bacon bits.

 

Serve.

Café de Olla

 

Ingredients:

 

+ 3 T ground coffee

+ 3 C water

+ 1 large cinnamon stick (4 long)

+ 4 t

piloncillo (brown sugar cone)

 

Directions:

 

Put coffee grounds into a tea diffuser. Place the grounds

into a saucepan with

the water, and bring to a boil. Add

cinnamon and piloncillo, and continue to

boil for 5 min.

The coffee is now ready, but it's flavor will be richer

the

longer you allow it to simmer. Stir well before

serving.

 

Piloncillo can be found in Mexican grocery stores and in

some supermarkets and

health food stores, or online at

www.melissas.com. To measure the hard sugar,

cut it into

small chunks or grate it.

 

Instant coffee can also be used, but I recommend grinding

fresh, fair-trade

beans.

 

Serves: 2

 

Preparation time: 10 min.

Super Quick Vegan Choco-Chip Cookies!

 

Ingredients:

 

+ Dry Ingredients:

+ 2 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour (regular flour

 

works too but produces an anemic looking, less

wholesome cookie)

+ 1

teaspoon baking soda

+ 1 teaspoon baking powder

+ 1/2 teaspoon salt

+ 1

cup vegan chocolate chips

+ Wet Ingredients:

+ 1/2 cup vegetable oil

+ 1

cup maple syrup

+ 1 teaspoon vanilla

 

Directions:

 

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix together all the dry

ingredients in one

bowl and all the wet ingredients in

another. Once they are combined in the two

bowls, make a

well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the

wet

ingredients. Mix the two together until they are well

combined then spoon the

batter into good sized lumps on a

baking sheet and then put them in the oven and

let them

bake for about 15 minutes. Cool and enjoy. The best part

about these

cookies is that since there are no eggs, you

can go ahead and eat as much dough

as you want. Yum! A

great recipe for those with little kids who like to help

 

cook.

 

*Variation: you can easily turn these into vegan oatmeal

raisin cookies by

using only 2 cups of flour, 1/2 cup of

oats, and 1 cup of raisins instead of the

chocolate chips.

They are equal

 

Serves: about 20

 

Preparation time: 10 minutes or less (not including baking

time)
