Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 I have been loving having hot meals in a bowl as the weather cools. I made a seitan stew with green beans, onions, sweet potatoes and peas that I have with pumpkin muffins. I also made white bean, kale, carrot, onion and celery soup that I add whole wheat crackers and grated almond cheese to. Next will be black bean and sweet potato chili with hard boiled eggs on top. I have some wonderful unusual bowls that I like to use that make things exciting too. JoEllen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Hi JJ, I love soups and stews because there are no recipes per se, just lots of things boiled in a pot. So for seitan stew, I saute the onions in olive oil first in the soup pot, then fill it with water and add the green beans, carrots, peas and seitan. I cut the seitan into small pieces. I find my seitan in a health food store or in the natural foods section of the grocery store. The brand I use is White Wave. After about 20 minutes of boiling I add the sweet potatoes. They come in later because they dissolve after a while if added too early. When the veggies are cooked (an hour), I add tamari to darken it and enough spelt flour (whole wheat would also work) to thicken it, and salt and pepper to taste. I saute leeks and onions for the white bean soup, and then again fill the pot with water and add kale (just leaves, no spines), carrots,celery, sage and a bay leaf and then boil for about a half hour. Then I add 3 cans of cannellini beans (or any white beans) and cook for another half hour. At some point the beans will thicken the soup. I add a little tamari for color and salt and pepper. If you want the pumpkin walnut muffin recipe, that is an actual one. Let me know. JoEllen , " jjames1010 " <jjames1010 wrote: > > Oh JoEllen! Those all sound simply wonderful!

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 These sound so fabulous! Thanks, I can't wait to try them! I love to make soups and stews, and like you, I rarely have a recipe, so I think I can handle these. Yes, I would love the pumpkin muffin recipe too! So seitan is in the refridgerated section, around the tempeh and tofu? Funny I haven't noticed it, I must be looking right at it! JJ " Your food shall be your remedy.
