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…

Homemade Pita Bread

February 1, 2010

This comes from my friend at Kitchen Challengers and I made it vegan. You might think making your own pita bread would be a hassle (or a pain in the ass) but actually, it was quite easy and what a huge difference! They were soft, fluffy and not one bit dried out like store-bought pitas. Go for it! Check out my gyro recipe…

A Smarter Fettuccine Alfredo

January 27, 2010

This comes from my friend over at Tried and Tasted Recipes Even though the original recipe isn’t vegan, it was super easy to veganize–and so delicious!

Vegan Ranch Dressing

January 27, 2010

This is a great version of dairy-free ranch dressing. It’s perfect for salads, but if  you want it thicker, such as for a dip, I would add about 1/4 – 1/2 C of Tofutti sour cream and use less soy milk. INGREDIENTS: 1 C Veganaise 1 1/2 tsp lemon juice 6-8 Tbs almond milk 1/2…

Seitan Marsala

January 26, 2010

This is my husband’s specialty, but of course he had always made it with chicken. Well…not anymore! I finally convinced him to use seitan and even he loved it. Turned out absolutely delicious, which means he’ll be cooking more often. I served it over pilaf and also with my kale and mustard green salad and…

Tempeh Burgers

January 25, 2010

It didn’t take much to throw these together–which was good, because I didn’t have a lot of time–and with leftovers, the next day’s lunch is a breeze. Tempeh is an excellent source of protein, manganese and B12, not to mention low in fat, calories and devoid of cholesterol. No wonder it’s the perfect alternative to…

Pineapple-Cashew-Quinoa Stir-Fry

January 24, 2010

This recipe from Veganomicon is so flavorful and delicious! It helps to have all the ingredients ready and chopped up before your start and the recipe calls for chilling the quinoa once it’s done, but I didn’t have time for that, so I filled the sink with cold water and placed the pan of quinoa…

The Epicurean Vegan is devoted to those wanting to eat healthy, save animals, and reduce their carbon footprint.

And it is for these reasons, that I would never go back to eating or wearing animal products. Ever.
