Please share your vegetarian or vegan recipes here! :tongue:

It will also be helpful to post their nutrition facts and whether they are vegetarian or vegan.


Note to veg*ns: Even though the foods listed here are vegetarian or vegan, you should make sure that the ingredients you buy only contain veg*n ingredients because they will probably differ with different brands.

I just made this up today, and it was pretty good! My dad said it tasted sort of like Yoplait yogurt.

It's a good source of fiber and protein! It's also very easy to make.
Tell me what you think. :smile:

I loveee this cereal! :chewing: I made this before I even went vegetarian.

It's low in fat, relatively low in sugar, it's a decent source of fiber, and an excellent source of protein!

I usually have two bowls of this at a time.


I took a picture of the one I made this morning:




Enjoy!

The Best Vegetarian Chili in the World

This makes a large batch as in the largest pot you have and I mean big. I make it this way and package it in single serving bags then into the freezer. It will last me three months. It takes some effort to make so this is my way of cutting my work time.

Ingredients:
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 tablespoons dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons Fajita seasoning  or 1 pack of taco seasoning both if you like a kick to your chili
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 2 green bell peppers, chopped (if you want)
  • 2 jalapeno peppers, chopped(if you want)
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 2 (4 ounce cans 8 total ounces)(226 g) chopped green Chile peppers, drained
  • 2 (12 ounce)(680 g total) packages vegetarian burger crumbles (if you want)
  • 3 (28 ounce-total 84 ounces)(3.5 kg) (1 kg in blender)  whole peeled tomatoes, crushed
  • 1/4 cup chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
  • 1 (15 ounce) (425 g) can kidney beans, drained
  • 1 (15 ounce) (425 g) can garbanzo beans, drained
  • 1 (15 ounce) (425 g) can black beans
  • 1 (15 ounce) (425 g) can whole kernel corn
If you can use beans not from a can it’s much better. They need to soak overnight and cooked before adding. More work but so much better for you. Cook corn on the cob and cut it off is better than the canned.

Directions:

Heat a small amount of water in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and season with bay leaves, cumin, oregano, and salt but keep it a small amount. Cook and stir until onion is tender, then mix in the celery, green bell peppers, jalapeno peppers, garlic, and green Chile peppers. Keep an eye on the water and add a little more if necessary. When vegetables are heated through, mix in the vegetarian burger crumbles. (optional)  Reduce heat to low, cover pot, and simmer 5 minutes. Make sure there’s enough water. A little too much is okay.

Mix the tomatoes into the pot. Add the Fajita seasoning or 1 pack of taco seasoning or both, and pepper. Stir in the kidney beans, garbanzo beans, and black beans. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer 45 minutes. Stir in the corn, and continue cooking 5 minutes before serving.

If you like your chili thick cook longer or add water if you like it more like soup.
