Healthy Vegan - Seitan Roast with Stuffing

Here is my first ever attempt at Seitan Roast with Stuffing.   

 A celebratory Seitan Roast with Stuffing to be served with all the vegetables you find at Sunday Roast Dinner. 
Talking of celebrations, let me wish all my readers A Happy New Year - 2018.  



I must confess, I am so glad to see the back of 2017 and am genuinely excited at 2018. 2018 will be a year of change for me and a year of new beginnings, but more about that later. 
I have been playing around a lot with seitan recently and have been pleased with the results.

 This Seitan Roast was enjoyable, but it was not perfect.  If you look closer the vegan filling made from onion, breadcrumbs and rosemary get a bit lost. This Seitan Roast with Stuffing was enough for 8 - 10 servings.  
I will be making this Seitan Roast with Stuffing again and next time, I will add some green and red to the stuffing so that it is more standoutish.  Also I will upgrade it to a Seitan Wellington by covering it in puff pastry.  In fact, I can't wait to make it again and then I will share the recipe.

Healthy Vegan - Whole Fava Beans Stew with Peppers

Image
August has brought us high winds and rain and a wanting for bowl food . Have you ever had whole fava beans?  If whole fava beans had a personality, it would be the fictional character Fonzie from the American sitcom Happy Days biker in a leathery rugged jacket, all tough on the outside - but a sweetheart on the inside.   So h ere is my second recipe with whole fava beans still in their handsome jackets.  The last recipe I made with whole fava beans was  Somalian Fava Beans  and they were utterly delicious.  Anyway, as the fava beans were bubbling away in the pot, it struck me that it was just a bowl of brown beans and not particularly appealing, looking a bit plain.  I decided to throw in a red and yellow pepper just to give it more colour.  It worked visually.  However, taste and flavour wise this Fava Bean Stew was okay, yes just okay.  Although it made for a pleasant change from spicy stews, I still prefer spicy stews or stews with a little bit of spice.   Please don

I am going to a gig tonight and am looking forward to it.  It hosted at a Miners Institute in the Welsh valleys.  D is taking his camera, so who knows I may be able to share more later in the week, but before I go off gallivanting, I thought I would share this orange and black bowl of food. Yes, another one, that is perfect for those cooking up a feast for the Halloween weekend.   The b lack comes from black chickpeas and orange from carrots or course, for the beady eyed amongst you there are some 'brain like' pieces in the bowl too, this is cauliflower that has turned orange from the turmeric. The recipe is adapted from my vegan Marrow Curry with Chickpeas , but this one is studded with black chickpeas and in place of the marrow, carrots and cauliflower.  Please don't worry too much if you can't find black chickpeas where you are, just substitute it with the traditional variety. Black Chickpeas with Carrots (and Cauliflower)   Serves 4 - 6 Ingredients 4

Healthy Vegan - Surprise Vegan Eats

The prompt today gave me the chuckles ' Share something vegan (and delicious, duh) with a non-vegan'.  Well I am the non-vegan here participating in Vegan Mofo and everything I have been making this month has been vegan and pretty delicious.  But I haven't kept it all to myself.  I have been very generous with my kitchen experiments taking some of my edible creations to family and some into work and sharing with friends and colleagues, some are vegetarian, but most are omnivores.   H ere are some dishes that I have recently shared with non-vegans and non-vegetarians in my life. First up is an  Ethiopian and Ertirean inspired Zigni Broth  based on the more familiar D'ba Zigni.  This one has sweet potatoes and spinach. It was the first time some of them had tried an Ethiopian and Eritrean food and like me were surprised at how spicy it was.   Next we have a vegetarian chilli.   You can't go wrong with a vegetarian chilli with family and friends, and then g
