Vegan Diet Recipies :d?
ByHI! okay so for my nutrition class I have to go on a Vegan Diet for two days! I am already vegetarian so it shouldn’t be that hard. I was wondering if you had any yummy recipes?? If so, PleaSE share! Thanks!


Mac n’ “Cheeze”
1 pound pasta (regular or gluten-free)
Blend together:
1 1/4 cups water
1 cup plain, fat-free soymilk (may use other non-dairy milk)
3/4 cup nutritional yeast
3 tablespoons cornstarch or potato starch
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt (or more to taste)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
pinch cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons tahini
1 teaspoon mellow white miso (or additional salt)
black pepper to taste
Put the pasta on to boil, according to package directions. While it’s cooking, blend all remaining ingredients together in a blender. When the pasta is al dente, drain it, reserving about 1/2 cup of the cooking water, and return the pasta to pan. Add the sauce mixture and cook, stirring, until mixture boils and thickens. Add a little of the pasta water if more moistness is needed.
If the sauce is not as flavorful as you’d like, add a little more mustard and onion powder.

Turkish Pilah with Pistachios and Chickpeas
This is one of those dishes that taste better the second day, so plan for leftovers–or just cook it a day ahead.
1 cup brown basmati rice
2 cups water
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup raisins (or zereshk)
salt
2 onions, minced
8 ounces eggplant, diced
1/2 cup fat-free vegetable broth
16 ounces chickpeas, cooked
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 large tomato, chopped
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
1/4 cup pistachio nuts, coarsely chopped
salt to taste
Cook rice with water, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, raisins (or zereshk), and salt until rice is tender.
Sauté onions in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until they begin to brown. Add the eggplant and cook for a few more minutes. Add the vegetable broth, cover, and cook until the eggplant is tender, about 8 more minutes.
Add the cooked rice to the eggplant, along with the chickpeas and cinnamon. If dry, add a little more vegetable broth. Simmer for about 5 minutes, to allow flavors to combine. Just before serving, add the tomato and chopped parsley. Add salt to taste and serve topped with pistachios.
Optional: Soak a few of the zereshk in hot water; just before serving, drain them and toss them with the pilaf. They will hold together better than the zereshk that were cooked with the rice.
Good Luck!
