Guest guest Posted January 19, 2003 Report Share Posted January 19, 2003 These are just my recipes, and some of them are made to my taste; do what works best for you. Easy Proletariat Vegan Chili (this recipe is based on the idea that you dont have time to get your fresh basil, or puree your own tomatoes, etc... if you can substitute fresh for canned.. go for it) 1 Can Red kidney beans, drained 1 Green Pepper, chopped roughly 1 Spanish onion, large, chopped roughly 1 1/2 cups white rice 1 cup tvp 1 big can diced tomatoes 1 regular can unflavoured tomato sauce 1 Handful White Button mushrooms, chopped 2 1/2 tablespoons tomato paste 1 tablespoon dried basil 2 tablespoons chili powder 1 tablespoon Franks Red Hot 1 tablespoon tabasco sauce 1/2 tablespoon dried chili pepper flakes 1. Cook your rice halfway; 2 pts water 1 pt rice, when water is mostly gone toss in chili powder, basil, chili pepper flakes, red hot sauce, tabasco sauce and stir madly for about 30 seconds. The rice will suck up the heat. 2. In a large pot, dump your tomato paste, canned tomatoes (juice too) tomato sauce together and mix well, especially the paste. Turn on medium low heat and throw in tvp and all the vegetables. Mix 3. Toss the rice mix (liquid too) into the tomato sauce pot, turn heat up and continue stirring until it is bubbling lightly. It's very important to keep the food moving when the heat is high. When it is steaming and bubbling, turn the heat down to low and let simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 30 minutes, with a lid if possible. If it looks too watery at any given point, you can simmer it without the lid; the moisture will evaporate but leave the flavour. The most important rule in cooking is; follow your gut, be confident, it's only food, you can mess up and try again later. Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable. Sign up now. http://mailplus.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2003 Report Share Posted January 19, 2003 oh, dont forget the garlic... this is a quick workingWOman's dinner, you can use a tablespoon or two of powder. I prefer the fresh stuff. It makes my fingers smell funny. Then I chase goths around and wave my fingertips at them, telling them that it only takes the garlic smell to kill wannabe vampires. --- keith graves <sleepingtao wrote: > These are just my recipes, and some of them are made > to my taste; do what works best for you. > > Easy Proletariat Vegan Chili > > (this recipe is based on the idea that you dont have > time to get your fresh basil, or puree your own > tomatoes, etc... if you can substitute fresh for > canned.. go for it) > > 1 Can Red kidney beans, drained > 1 Green Pepper, chopped roughly > 1 Spanish onion, large, chopped roughly > 1 1/2 cups white rice > 1 cup tvp > 1 big can diced tomatoes > 1 regular can unflavoured tomato sauce > 1 Handful White Button mushrooms, chopped > 2 1/2 tablespoons tomato paste > 1 tablespoon dried basil > 2 tablespoons chili powder > 1 tablespoon Franks Red Hot > 1 tablespoon tabasco sauce > 1/2 tablespoon dried chili pepper flakes > > 1.
