No I use smoked paprika, onion granules, soya sauce, liquid smoke, dijon mustard, water & dehydrated soya mince.
I mix it all together and microwave until the mince is dried out and "bacony"

Split pea soup with home made "bacon" bits

Seitan is a bit more meaty than tofu/tempeh & easy to make at home, a lot of premade fake meats are made of it.
I agree the first taste of Tempeh strange, but giving it a whirl and suddenly you...

In the UK we have a tendency to mix/mash carrots & swede together - not entirely sure why but I just go with the flow. (we also mixed salt, pepper and vegan butter in). The seitan is homemade, I...

This is a lovely book from Ms Cupcake, I've just made a chocolate cake with vanilla "butter" cream icing (adapted...

Everything is vegan, its a very interesting read as they have interviews with some vegan chefs & I think the author invented/helped with he creation of Gardein (not available in the UK anymore) and...

Definitely worthwhile but I wont be making things from it regularly.

I have made all the above and with the exception of the quinoa porridge I loved them all, here are a few photos

Chili:...

I liked it but as Blueberries say "nothing magical"!
However it also appears that some of the new savoury flavoured ones are vegan as well:...

I found these in Liverpool a few weeks ago but have not had a chance to post about them, they are all lovely:

I got this about 5 months ago - even though it doesn't state it, it is a Vegan cookbook - and have been put off...

Yup, there is a recipe for a basic nut butter (using any nut) and for other basics like cashew mayo.

I'm also planning to make 2 other things this week - Southern Peanut Soup and Roast Nicoise...

I'm type 1 and I find that in the most part diabetes control is more about making sensible choices than being Vegan (E.G, eating fruit instead of brownies, having complex carbs rather than simple...

I have the book and made the melt a few weeks ago!:-) - its my favourite "tuna" style recipe and the yard stick by which I judge other similar recipes.

Breakfast: Cap'n Crunch Peanut Butter Cereal & M&S Soya Milk

A friend just posted this on Facebook. Chocolate chip Hobnobs. Vegan!!!

Happy Birthday:-)

I got that book just after it came out but have not made anything yet, I will look forward to hearing your recommendations

I have to admit this was lovely, and a bargain at £3.95 with a free pack of weird crisps. Plus £2.85 for a latte.

The chocolate one tasted like someone coated an old dusty, moth eaten carpet with cocoa powder. Minus the tasty underlay.

I haven't dared try the tropical flavour yet

^^ Don't bother with these. They taste like carpet

In case anyone is interested the new issue of the Vegan Society magazine has an article on having a Vegan baby.

Regarding the suitability of alcohol, Barnivore is very useful

Crisco is vegetable shortning, its available at Tesco or you could get something like Trex instead

By the way TeresaAnn your cupcakes look lovely

Thats why I bought so much stuff, I think I saved about £3.50


I forgot to say - the Dole Cranberry & Blurberry crunch is part of a new Dole range snack which are labelled as being Vegan.

The lemon ones are great - they are all rebranded Sojade (formerly Sojasun) they are my favourite yoghurts but difficult to get hold of where I live so I'm very glad Tesco sells them now.

Someone said this to me yesterday as well - shortly followed by "and its better being over the hill than buried under it"

Thanks!:-)

It was my 30th yesterday so today was my day of complete indulgence:o

Thanks!


Yup, I use photobucket, then take the direct link to the picture, click the Insert Image option and paste it into there.
