Vegan comfort food

[Artichoke47]

That sounds absolutely delicious Artichoke - how do you make it? What caramel? Is it a syrup? Oooh I've got to try some!.....drool......

I got the caramel recipe from www.veganchef.com.

I use about 2/3 apple cider, 1/3 non-dairy milk, and then 2 T. of caramel!

Thankyou!!!

i think i have found a new one...samosas, i had them homemade (but not by me, but by an indian couple that are my friends) tonight at a christmas party. they were soooo good, i think that i eat way too much indian food, but gosh, i could LIVE on it, i wanna visit india so badly too, i think that would be a life altering experience, and then i would have all the comfort food i could ever want ()

[Wishin986]

yummm i love indian food. i had it for the first time a few weeks ago visiting my friend at college and then again at work a week or so ago. soo yummy and spicy and i love spicy!

no vegan banana nut muffins for comfort food here at the whole foods in town sooo it becomes choc. chip. scones. they will be the end of me.

[foxytina_69]

[SarahM]

ooh i found this great vegan ice cream - it's coffee w/ fudge swirls and almonds! ~ yummers!

avocadoes w/ lemon juice and salt

[Gorilla]

btw, i've never managed to find a really fantastic vegan gravy mix.... Can anyone recommend one? I'd be eversa grateful like.

the gravy from Tesco that Lily mentioned is good, but i personally prefer Bisto roast onion gravy granules, if you haven't tried it give that a go as well (they're definitely vegan, doesn't say on the label but it does say so on their website).

mmmmmmmmmm roast potatoes and gravy, great comfort food

any fav recipes?

[Juice]

any fav recipes?

I don't follow any recipes exactly, since I have no intention of actually baking cookies. I just throw things together; for example, 3 spoonfuls flour, 1 spoon sugar, 1 spoon brown sugar, 1 spoon margarine and some vanilla. I made a double batch one night and felt a bit ill so I've cut down on the frequency.

[herbwormwood]

it's funny, i was watching a tv program last night and had made up my minf that i must try chestnuts (i know--) and now i see posts on here, and i was thinking they seemed as though they would be a very comforting food...

Chestnuts are nice. I put them in my curries.
My main comfort food is pasta. When I am not feeling well I like to eat supermarket bread toasted with Natex on, or just spread with margarine. I also like soup when its cold outside.

[foxytina_69]

my comfort foods are anything potato.

chips, fries, hashbrowns, baked, roasted, mashed. lol.

also anything that tastes like my moms food. soups, gravy, food that she used to make, veganized. noel nog, mandarin oranges, vegan sausages, pancakes, sprout sandwiches, stuffing, holiday meals...

all of those things are very happy memories for me so theyre really comforting.

and also take out foods like veggie burgers, pizza and chinese.

[Jamie]

ooh this thread is great!!

for me it's vegemite on toast, peanut butter and jam sandwiches (I only had this for the first time a few months ago... just felt like trying it one day and did!), anything potatoes but especially hash browns, and bubble and squeek, and chip shop chips, although I also love vegan sausage and mash!

Also indian food (my fave is sag aloo, bombay aloo, tarka dal, and niramish, with onion bhahjis and chips! lol), mini pizzas (reminds me of after-school snacks my mum made, on english muffins or pitta bread etc), and vegan 'bacon' toasties.

Also chocolate, although I can't gorge myself on it like I used to with milkier chocs than vegan ones, and hot choc made with plant milk and some plant cream... yummmmmmmm!

And thick toast with loads of marg-type-spread! where's it's all melted into the surface but sometimes still in little pools and salty and yum.

[aubergine]

Very occasionally Vegemite on Toast, but most of the time fruit. Preferably Bananas.

[Yoggy]

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat.

excuse me while i start screaming and faint lol.

what grocery store did you see it at yoggy?

I saw it at the Fairway in Oak Bay Village.

Fairways always seem to be on top of things; I've found Boca Burgers and non-hydrogenated tofutti sour cream and lots of other yummy stuff there .

I DREAMED about Noel Nog the other night, which is what reminded me to check the store yesterday. Can you say obsession? lol

You've never had PB&J before a few months ago? Wow...if those yummy sandwiches fell of the face of the Earth, they might as well take me with them. I couldn't live any longer.
