I just wanted to point out that white sugar isn't vegan. The processing to turn it white includes charred animal bones. There are vegan sugars available, such as turbinado and demerarara. Those are raw (unprocessed) sugars, but beet sugar is also vegan.

Try this, it's Lentil Bolognese and quite easy to do. I also posted it on another thread for someone who had diet requirements.

PREP TIME: 5 Minutes
COOK: 25-30 Minutes

Ingredients

1 Onion, chopped
2 garlic gloves, crushed
2 Carrots, grated
2 Celery sticks, chopped
3 tbsp (tablespoons) olive oil,
2 tbsp Tomato purée
115/4oz red lentils
1x400g/140oz chopped tomatos
450ml/2cups stock (Vegetable as your Vegan)
Salt and ground black pepper

Method

1) In a large saucepan, gently fry the onion, garlic, carrots and celery in the oil for about 5 minutes until they are soft.

2)Add the lentils, tomatoes, tomato purée, stock and seasoning.

3) Bring the mixture to a boil then partly cover with a lid and simmer for 20 minutes until thick and soft. Use Bolognese as required.

Tried and tested myself as I'm vegetarian, so I hope you enjoy it to! Oh and do note, this makes up a lot of bolognese, so you'll be able to freeze some as well!

I just wanted to add, Silver Spoon sugar doesn't contain animal bone, it's 100% vege and vegan friendly. I'm not sure if you can get silver spoon in countries other then England but if you can be sure to look out for it! However the brown sugar by Silver spoon can not be guaranteed vegan or vege friendly.

Never seen it in the US... I just know that standard white cane sugar here is non-vegan unless it says on the box that it is vegan. It's one of those foods that you'd think should always be vegan, which just makes the whole thing confusing. xp

Then of course our labeling laws aren't as strict either so some things get labeled "vegan" that... aren't vegan.

Vegan... if you like Indian cuisine, here's a great recipe I'm doing for my cafe's weekly special:

Lobia Dal - black bean stew

1) Mix these ingredients together, add to a shallow pan:

1 tsp of ginger
1 tsp of salt
1.5 tsp of coriander
2 tsp of cumin seed
.5 tsp of turmeric
2 tbsp oil
1.5 cups of vegetable broth

2) After this mixture is heated, add these:

1 very small onion, minced
2 large cloves of garlic, chopped
2 tbsp of lemon juice
2 cups of black eyed peas, pre-cooked

3) Let this simmer until it has thickened into a stew

This goes great with rice, some sauteed or grilled vegetables, etc. For our special, we're serving it with couscous and steamed zucchini, yellow squash, and carrot.

Hope this helps C:

Vegan stuffed zucchini or pepper ( Had stuffed zucchini tonight was great )

4 medium zucchini ( I used 1 large )
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, divided
1 c. finely chopped onion
1/4 c. sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1 tbsp. chopped fresh thyme
3 garlic cloves, minced
?1/4 c. chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tbsp. chopped fresh basil
2 tsp. finely grated lemon rind


Preheat oven to 350 degrees (175 degrees C).
Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise. With a spoon, scoop out the seeds. Chop and reserve about 3/4 of the seeds for the stuffing.
In a medium bowl, mix together everything else
If you are using couscous, boil then add to mix before putting on.
Bake for 30 minutes.

With mine I used couscous, pepper, onion, toamtoes, garlic, and spaghetti sauce.

3 equal parts banana slices, frozen blueberries, and frozen mango
tsp of amazing grass greens powder
tsp of barleans flax oil
splash of pineapple juice
enough pom/blueberry/cranberry juice blend to cover the top of the frozen fruit

Blend.
Enjoy. heart

Since you're going vegan, I'm telling you now that BEANS, LENTILS, and RICE will be your new best friends and there's millions of recipes that involve them. Lentils (red or regular color) especially. Because they only take 8 minutes to cook with no pre-soaking required. You can buy a whole bunch for cheap from a grocery store's bulk section to cook into soups, steam with rice, or cook then toss into salads. It provides complete protein and you won't miss meat.

Olive oil, salt, and a pinch of garlic are perfectly vegan and can go on everything that butter goes on. You can mash potatoes with them, whip up so it's creamy, and add a dash of oregano, basil, rosemary, thyme, and parsley (all harbs you can buy in bulk and mix together yourself at home).

Flaxseed meal or even almond meal if you find it, are great additions to baked goods (like muffins and pancakes) as a replacer for egg (just 1 spoon of meal + 1 spoon water add to flour batter).

Garlic, sesame seed oil, and soy sauce makes for great stirfry. Just toss it in the pan with anything you want, pea pods, broccoli, carrots, onions. Garnish with cilantro.

Vegan lasagna is a pretty popular recipe to come by. You just layer up a casserole dish with slices of zucchini, potato, onions, tomato, garlic, carrots, spinach with dashes of salt, pepper, basil, and parsley every other layer. Bake with foil covering the top until the potato layer is soft (poke it with a fork). That's what I like to do but there's more recipes for vegan lasagna to google and all of them are super yum. If tomato is too strong for you, sub it with some lemon juice and a different vegetable... or beans!
