Winter veg recipe thread... post your favs!
These are ovo-lacto, but most of the ingredients could be subbed for a comparable soy product
White Wine Pasta! Easy peasy, and really yummy. Seriously, it tastes impressive. 1 lg can crush tom 3/4 C white wine 3 TB olive oil 1-2 cloves crushed garlic 1 bunch fresh basil (the fresh really makes it ) 1/3 C cream 2 boxes penne -pour several Tablespoons of olive oil in a pan, add fresh minced/crushed garlic until garlic start to look golden -add 3/4 C white cooking wine, simmer 3 min. -add can crushed tomatoes, bunch of fresh chopped basil, salt and pepper to taste -add 1/3 C cream just before combining with 2 boxes of penne cooked to al dente and drained well Serve with garlic bread...yum!! Also, this recipe for Shepherd's Pie..modified with veggie crumbles instead of lamb/beef. We had dinner with leftovers, and it cost maybe $6 for the entire meal. http://www.cheapcooking. com/Recipes/shepherds-pie.htm coming back with a few more later...I thought it'd be fun to swap our favorite winter recipes since the weather's changing! It's always nice to have something new. |

Katie- we use DeBoles GF penne...I just make sure I cook it just to al dente, and rinse it well with cold water before using it.

I've been using Mrs. Leepers (I always feel like a huge dork saying the name though) and their brown rice multi-coloured rotini can pretty much pass for "real" pasta.

They are the fake ground beef. They're in the frozen section. Boca and Morningstar both make them.

Re: Winter veg recipe thread... post your favs!
I'm making Sweet Potato Soup tonight. It is SO delicious, and freezes well. I always do a double batch. I was going to do a quad batch and freeze for baby meals, but I didn't buy enough sweet potatoes. The secret is to let it cook 'til it's really creamy. I usually cook it at least an hour and a half, maybe two. It also improves the flavor to let the sweet potatoes really carmelize before you put them in the soup.
There's a bit of diary; I don't see a problem converting it if necessary. |
