I will finally live up to my name and share a bean recipe. I use an instant pot pressure cooker to make these beans:

  • 1 cup beans (dry)
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 tsp ground cumin (?) - I usually eyeball it
  • 1 tsp chili powder (?) - I usually eyeball it
  • 1 tbsp granulated chicken flavor (Totole brand, ~2200mg sodium)

All I have to do is hit the bean/chili button and it's done in 30 min! If I want to improve the flavor further I cook it on the stovetop with oil / fat of choice. I'm not sure how accurate the spice amounts are.

Does anyone have their own simple bean recipe?

came out pretty good tbh, though the color and texture could have been better if i baked instead of sauteed it, but i didn't feel like waiting for that

splash of soy sauce and a squirt of tomato paste remains an undefeated strat for that ooh-mommy flavor 👌

Yeah I REALLY like bread.

One's a "Sesame Semolina", the other "Mount Athos".

Both are lovely loaves of bread.

Please Help Me Support My Four Children 💔🙏

Hello my friends, I desperately need your help and support. I am a mother of four children, raising them on my own without my husband by my side. 💔

Unfortunately, my fundraising campaign link was closed, and I was not able to benefit from the funds. 😭😭

Please, if anyone is able to help me, you can donate through this link. I need every single dollar for my children’s basic needs—food, milk, diapers, and other essential necessities. 🙏❤️

And if anyone receives any of the donated funds from my previous campaign, please, I kindly ask you to return them to me through this new link.

Even a small donation can make a real difference for my children. If you cannot donate, please share this post. Your support means more to us than I can express. 🙏💔

Made this for lunch today! The noodles and scallions are instant but I added fresh mushies.

The supermarket I get tofu from is a bit far away so I've been thinking I might buy more at a time and simply store it in the freezer, but I don't know if it'll mess with the texture or how I can cook it. Anything worth taking into account?

On my beanmaxxing arc & I'm looking for some tofu recipes, preferrably quick after-work recipes but any and all are welcome!

Sorry that the lighting looks odd

This recipe is for the entire serving I had in this image.

Sweet 'n' Spicy Soya Chunks


Ingredients:

  • 1 cup dry soya chunks
  • 2 cups hot water

Marinade:

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch

Sauce:

  • 2 tbsp hot sauce
  • 1.5 tbsp agave
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder

Instructions:

  1. Let the chunks sit in the hot water for 20 minutes.
  2. Drain, rinse, and squeeze the water out of them.
  3. To make the marinade, put all listed ingredients (soy sauce, vegetable oil, garlic and onion powder) except the cornstarch in the container. Stir it all together.
  4. Add the soya chunks to the marinade, sprinkle the cornstarch on top, and then shake the container until the soya chunks are evenly coated.
  5. Baking them, I did 15 minutes in the oven, flipping after 10. Should work well with pan frying or air frying, too.
  6. While they were baking, I microwaved the sauce for 45 seconds.
  7. When they are done, add the soya chunks to the sauce, shake in a container until everything is coated.

Cashew Mac


I tried to enhance it from the last time I made it.

In the previous recipe, I used raw cashews, but for this one, I did a quick soak. I also used an immersion blender rather than a high-speed blender, especially since I was making a smaller amount.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups small shells pasta
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp soaked cashews
  • 1/2 cup very hot water (can either be boiled or very hot tap water) for soaking the cashews
  • 1/3 cup water + 2 tbsp reserved pasta water (this one be for the sauce itself)
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1.5 tsp cornstarch
  • 1/4 tsp liquid smoke
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp ground mustard
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 1/8 tsp MSG
  • pinch of turmeric

Instructions:

  1. Prepare pasta according to package instructions.
  2. While pasta is boiling, soak the cashews in the very hot water for 10 minutes. After the cashews are soaked, drain and rinse them.
  3. Add the following ingredients to a tall cup: the cashews, the 1/3 cup water + 2 tbsp reserved pasta water, vegetable oil, nutritional yeast, cornstarch, liquid smoke, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, ground mustard, salt, black pepper, MSG, turmeric (basically everything except the pasta itself)
  4. Blend with an immersion blender at the bottom of the cup until there is a smooth, creamy liquid consistency and no noticeable solid pieces of cashews. I have a 2-speed one, and I use the higher speed.
  5. After that is done, pour it over the pasta in the pot, and stir everything together.

Ranch


I start with my aquafaba mayo recipe in this post.

From there, add the following ingredients to the container:

  • 2 tbsp water (for thinner consistency)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp dried dill
  • 1/4 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/4 tsp chives
  • a pinch of salt
  • a pinch of black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp of agave

Stir everything together, and you'll get a nice ranch! Then you can pour however much you want on the chunks and mac.

I just bought some more textured vegetable protein (TVP). My local stores don't stock it and it does make me gassy, so I don't get it that often. But it is a good, lean, vegan protein.

So, do you have a tasty recipe that uses TVP?

Mayo


  • 1/3 cup aquafaba (liquid from a can of chickpeas)
  • 1 tbsp mustard
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup of neutral oil

Immersion Blender Instructions:

  1. Put aquafaba, mustard, lemon juice, and salt in a container. You don't need to stir it.
  2. Pour the entire cup of oil on top.
  3. Take your immersion blender, bring the blade all the way to the bottom of the container, and go at it until it becomes a white creamy mayo! Should take like 15 seconds at the most, depending on which immersion blender you are using.

Macaroni Salad


(This image shows half of the amount this recipe makes)

Pasta is 2 cups (dry) small shells. I put in 1/2 tbsp of lemon juice in it when I was boiling.

  1. The Dressing
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp of the mayo
  • 1 tsp yellow mustard
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp agave nectar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1/8 tsp liquid smoke
  • 1/8 tsp garlic powder
  • 3 tbsp dill relish
  • 1/2 tbsp olive oil
  1. Veggies
  • 1/2 cup finely diced celery
  • 1/2 cup finely diced red pepper
  • 1/4 cup finely diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives
  • whole 8 oz pack of mushrooms (should be around roughly 3 cups, but, of course, it shrinks significantly when it cooks)

Recommended add-ons: Goes good with a little hot sauce and nooch on top.

Instructions:

  1. Boil pasta according to package instructions.
  2. Cook mushrooms however you'd like! I kept it simple by just heating them up in a little vegetable oil and water because the sauce is already so much stuff.
  3. Mix dressing and veggies together in a large bowl
  4. When pasta is done cooking, drain. I recommend rinsing with some cold water for a bit.
  5. Add pasta to bowl of dressing and veggies and mix it all together.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Overnight is recommended.
  7. If needed before serving, you can add about 2 tbsp of water to "loosen" the dressing a bit, but I didn't find this necessary. It's down to personal preference.

for this i used one can of lentils, two cans of chickpea, one onion, one bell pepper, tomato paste, turmeric, cumin, garlic powder, bay leaf, shiitake mushroom seasoning, maggi seasoning, salt and pep, and frozen spinach.

A piece of apple pie out of the oven along with a cup of coffee. I'm not too mad being up at 6 am, I did get 7 hours of sleep, which is a solid amount.
