  1. Cheesy Potato Casserole

    Ingredients (use vegan versions):

        1/2 cup soy milk

        1/2 cup no-chicken chicken broth

        1 8 oz. vegan sour cream

        1 tablespoon margarine

        1 bag of frozen hash browns or cut your own

        Melty Cheese recipe:

        2 cup soy milk

        4 oz. pimento

        1 1/2 teaspoon salt

        1/2 teaspoon onion powder

        3-4 tablespoon yeast flakes

        1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

        2 tablespoon cornstarch

        1/4 cup raw cashews

        1 tablespoon lemon juice.

    Blend cashews and pimentos in small amount of soymilk until smooth, add remaining ingredients, blend to mix. Cook in heavy sauce pan until thick stirring constantly. Makes good macaroni and cheese or nachos Can add Rotel tomatoes but drain juice for nachos.

    Directions:

    In large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients. See Melty cheese recipe and pour melty cheese over ingredients.  Stir well.

    Grease 9x13 casserole dish and pour in contents from mixing bowl. Take a seal able sandwich or larger bag and put 2 cups (approx.) of corn flakes in and seal removing most of air. I place it on the floor and smashed it to crumbs turning bag over so as not to make corn flake dust.

    You can take a rolling pin or hard plastic glass and do the same. Spread corn flakes over entire casserole dish, cover with aluminum foil, Bake at 350 degrees for 90 minutes, remove foil and bake 7-10 more minutes. Do not overcook with foil removed

    Serves: 8, Preparation time: 1 hr 45 min.

    Veggie Pot Pie

    Ingredients (use vegan versions):

        1 frozen pie shell, or fresh dough if you have time

        2-3 cups veggie broth

        1-2 potatoes

        3 medium carrots

        a variety of veggies such as green beans, zuchinni, mushrooms, or just about anything.

        1 package frozen spinach

        vegan grated or sliced cheddar to cover pan in two layers

        lots of good spices: garlic,

        cumin, tarragon makes it savory, whatever you like.

    Directions:

    Thaw pie she'll and try real hard to take one 1/2 out of the tin w/o it breaking into a million pieces. If you manage, you are a god(dess).  Meanwhile, cook chopped veggies (NOT spinach, just keep it till later).  Cook in micro or oven till about 3/4 cooked.  To make sauce, heat broth in large kettle, add spices, and lower heat.  Add slowly either cornstarch or flour (I use flour), till slightly thickened.  You can add dairy free milk and use veggie buillon cubes.  Add to this cooked veggies and coat them w/sauce.

    Meanwhile, layer 1/2 cheese on bottom of lower crust.  Spoon in veggies and sauce, then add spinach on top.  add rest of cheese on top of that, and close it up as best as you can w/ the torn top shell. at least mine always tears. bake at 400 for about 45 min, till crust is brown and delicious cheese and juice oozes out.

    Serves: 3-4 hungry adults

    Preparation time: less than 1 hour

        2 jars (8oz) marinated artichoke hearts

        1 tablespoon oregano

    Best Vegan Mac and Cheese

    Ingredients (use vegan versions):

        1 1/2 cups of plain soy milk

        1 cup of water

        1/3 cup of tamari or soy sauce

        1 1/2 cup of nutritional yeast

        1 tablespoon paprika

        1 tablespoon garlic powder

        1 tablespoon vegesal or in lack of fancy product, just use salt

        1/4 of a block of firm (not silken) tofu

        1 cup of canola or vegetable oil

        1 1/2 lbs of pasta of your choice preferably macaroni

        a relatively large baking pan (like a brownie pan)

        1 dollop of mustard (optional)

    Directions:

    Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

    Boil water in a big pot for the pasta.

    All of the ingredients sans pasta can easily go in a blender liquid and powdered this is by far the easiest way and the only was I do it.

    Once pasta is cooked drain I and put it in the baking pan pour the  cheese sauce over the pasta.

    Bake until the top of the pasta looks slightly browned and crispy  about 15 minutes    but not too crispy because that is gross.

    I honestly do not know the serving information or nutritional content I can tell you it feeds a heck of a lot of people and if you are cooking for yourself it will last about 5 days if you eat it for all three meals of the day.

    Serves: a lot, Preparation time: about 8 min.

  2. Old Fashioned Beef Stew ;D

    1/2 - 2 cups TVP Chunks

    1 pack Vegan Beef Stew Seasoning (Try Durkee brand.)

    5 cups assorted chopped veggies. (potatos, carrots and onions work great)

    Re-hydrate the TVP chunks.

    Prepare the stew following the directions on the packet. Bypass the meat part and just cook the veggies in the stew sauce. You may need to add another cup of water to cover the veggies. When veggies are close to done, add the TVP. If you add it too early they will lose their texture. Continue to cook everything untill the veggies are done.

    Serve and Eat.
