Mediterranean Couscous Salad

May 22, 2020 By Epicurean Vegan

Let’s see if I can do this blogging thing again . . . after all, it’s been nearly 2-1/2 years since I’ve posted a recipe. Sorry for the long absence; life got busy, I suppose. To update you, we moved from Colorado to Brooklyn in March of last year, the twenty-one-year-old just finished his junior…

Hummus and Kalamata Olive Pizza

March 23, 2010

Being a vegan, you can say good-bye to pizza. Well…traditional pizza, that is. But…vegans say hello to healthier pizza. I had a similar pizza while in Estes Park, CO when we got away for Spring Break, so here is my version. The Kalamata olives are wonderful on this pizza and the Husband kept sneaking them…

Seitan Meatballs

March 22, 2010

One bite and these “meat”balls were an instant favorite that I’ll be making often. They’re actually quite easy to make and prep time was only about 10 mins at the most. The recipe is from Vegetarian Times and includes a sauce recipe, which I didn’t have time for, so I just used jarred sauce. Already…

Cranberry Muffin-Bundt

March 22, 2010

The original recipe is called Low-Fat Vegan Coffee Cake but it really has more of a muffin-like texture, consistency and taste. “Coffeecake” just doesn’t seem to fit. It’s not to say it’s not delicious because it’s extremely tasty and moist. Plus…prep time was about 10 minutes and only required one medium sauce pan! How easy…

Product Review: Boca Meatless Ground Crumbles

March 21, 2010

These have been sitting in my freezer for a couple of weeks and so I finally got around to using them. I decided to make tacos with the crumbles and typically, I would add 1/2 a large onion, chopped to the pan, but I forgot. Oops. (I guess I was too focused on the review)!…

Hoisin-Glazed Tempeh with Green Beans and Cashews

March 18, 2010

This is from Vegetarian Times and if you don’t have a lot of time, it’s a fast and easy meal. I made a few minor changes to the recipe like doubling the tempeh and sauce ingredients, plus I served it over rice that I seasoned with sesame seed oil and ground ginger. (I’ll list the original recipe–decide…

Quinoa Pilaf with Cranberries and Almonds

March 11, 2010

This is one of my favorite side dishes. Quinoa is not a grain, but actually a seed, but certainly looks, cooks and tastes like a grain. It’s even called a “supergrain” because of it’s many benefits and easy digestibility. Quinoa is packed full of protein, magnesium, and fiber. Research has also found that eating this…

Seitan* Tostadas with Avocado Dressing

March 7, 2010

Well…the (*) indicates that seitan may not be the right choice for these tostadas–the original recipe called for chicken so I figured chicken-style seitan would be the ideal substitute. I guess I can’t always be a vegan-recipe-master. Next time, I will try refries with Boca brand “beef” crumbles. But I wanted to share the recipe…

Honey-Glazed Tofu on Couscous

March 6, 2010

I have a stack of magazines, each with at least ten Post-Its sticking out, marking delicious-looking recipes to try. Facing a hungry family, I looked through this arsenal of dinner options. This one is from Healing Foods Cookbook from Vegetarian Times.  Calling for 2 tsp of black pepper, it had a bit of a kick–I…

Product Review: Vegan Gourmet Nacho Cheese Alternative

March 5, 2010

The quest for tasty queso seems to be a never-ending task for vegans. The queso recipe posted earlier, is pretty darn good, but does require a lot more ingredients, so if that doesn’t appeal to you, the folks at Follow Your Heart have a great alternative and just as they claim…it DOES MELT! And $3.69…

Potato-Leek Soup

February 28, 2010

This is an all-time favorite that is really simple and always delicious. It’s incredibly easy to prepare by using a food processor or even an immersion blender. The recipe is simple and a great base for then adding other ingredients such as veggie ham, peas, carrots or other herbs of your choice. You can also…

The Epicurean Vegan is devoted to those wanting to eat healthy, save animals, and reduce their carbon footprint. My decision to go vegan started out as a quest to get healthier, but the more I learned about veganism, the more I realized how damaging the meat and dairy industries are to the environment and, of course, the animals. And it is for these reasons, that I would never go back to eating or wearing animal products. Ever.
