$.25 Avocados & Mangos at Grocery Outlet! (with this vegan coupon)

6/30/2012

0 Comments

 
Folks who live near a Grocery Outlet should definitely take advantage of this awesome deal on avocados and mangos!

Here's the deal: Avocados and mangos are currently on sale 2 for $1.00, which is already a kick-ass produce deal. BUT -- you can cut that price in half with this printable online coupon from the Grocery Outlet website.

Here is the link to the coupon:

$1.00 off when you purchase 4 avocados or mangos (expires July 3)

So, head to Grocery Outlet, buy 4 avocados or mangos (which would be $2.00 with just the current sale), and then hand over your $1.00 off coupon to pay just $1.00!

$.25 each is an amazing deal on either of these normally expensive produce items!

Head over to the Grocery Outlet website to find the store nearest you.

Vegan Rice, Lentils & Potatoes Recipe

6/28/2012

0 Comments

 
Picture
Vegan rice, lentils and potatoes dish just before adding water during the cooking process.
I'm a bit sad that the summer heat is on its way, so I will take any chance I get to make a hearty potato-filled dish that I would normally be more inclined to make in the fall or winter months. That's why I grabbed the opportunity to make this easy vegan lentil and rice recipe as soon as I saw the first drops of rain the other day. (It rained again the next day, which I took as a sign that I was supposed to make yet another stick-to-your-ribs meal, but I will blog about that sausage pastry goodness in a coming post.)

This vegan lentil, rice and potato dish takes about an hour to prepare from start to finish, but a lot of that time is just simmering, so you can do other things once you have it on the stove.

This is a great side dish for a vegan Indian food feast, but we generally eat this as a one-dish meal for dinner, and then devour the leftovers for lunch the next day. I highly recommend adding cauliflower, peas and carrots to this recipe for an even tastier meal with higher nutritional value. When I make this just for myself, that is what I do...but when I'm cooking for me and the guy, I leave them out, since I haven't quite convinced him to love a wide variety of vegetables yet. I'm working on it, though!

Vegan Rice, Lentils & Potatoes Recipe

What You Need:

6 cups water

2 cups rice

2 cups red lentils

4 red potatoes

½ of an onion

2 garlic cloves

2 Tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons sea salt

1 teaspoon cumin seeds

1 teaspoon turmeric

1/2 teaspoon cloves


What You Do:

  1. Soak rice and lentils in bowl for 15 to 30 minutes (to shorten cooking time).
  2. Wash, peel and chop potatoes.
  3. Chop onion, and mince garlic cloves.
  4. Heat olive oil in large pot over medium heat.
  5. Sauté garlic, onion and spices for about two minutes.
  6. Add potato, and continue to sauté for another five minutes.
  7. Drain rice and lentils. Rinse, add to cooking pot, and sauté for a few more minutes.
  8. Add water and bring to a boil.
  9. Reduce heat, cover pot, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes (until lentils and rice are cooked, and potatoes are tender).

Three Easy Vegan Pudding Recipes

6/27/2012

4 Comments

 
Picture
Vegan instant pudding is quick and easy to make, and is the perfect choice when you need a healthier chocolate fix or a fast dessert.

Below you will find three vegan pudding recipes that require three or fewer ingredients, and that can be whipped up in a blender or food processor in minutes.

Instant Vegan Pudding Recipe:

1 package of firm silken tofu
1 package of Mori-Nu Mates pudding mix (in your flavor of choice)
4 Tablespoons water

  1. Place the tofu and water in a blender or food processor.
  2. Blend until a creamy texture is achieved.
  3. Add one package of Mori-Nu Mates pudding mix powder.
  4. Blend for about 2 minutes.
  5. Put finished vegan pudding in small bowls or jam jars, chill and serve.

As you can see by the picture, I found Mori-Nu Mates on clearance at my local Fred Meyer. If you can't find it locally, you can find Mori-Nu Mates pudding mixes here:
Mori-Nu Mates Vanilla Pudding Mix -- 4 oz

Vegan Chocolate Pudding Recipe:

1 package of firm silken tofu
3 Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 to 1/3 cup vegan sweetener (depending on how sweet you like your vegan pudding)

Optional:
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  1. Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor, and blend until creamy and well mixed.
  2. Scoop the chocolate vegan pudding into pudding cups, jam jars or small bowls to chill before serving.

Vegan sweeteners that work for this pudding recipe include vegan sugar, agave nectar, stevia, maple syrup or your favorite similar sweetener. If you have some homemade vanilla sugar on hand, it makes a great sweetener for this recipe and adds more flavor to the pudding.


Instant Tofu Pudding with Jell-O Pudding Mix:

1 package of firm silken tofu
1 package of vegan Jell-O Instant Pudding mix

  1. Place the tofu and the Jell-O Instant Pudding mix in a blender or food processor, and blend until creamy texture is achieved.
  2. Place your finished vegan pudding in pudding cups, small bowls or jam jars to chill before serving.

Vegan Jell-O Instant Pudding mixes include chocolate, vanilla, banana cream and lemon. These are the ones I'm aware of, but you may also find other vegan flavors by checking the ingredients.
