Sometimes you just want a hunk of food with bulk to feel full. If you are on a plant based diet, this is hard to come by. Until now.
I think I have the answer: beans. Hear me out on this.
Take a can of organic beans, say northern beans. Drain them and then mash them until they look like masked potatoes. Then season them as you would a hunk of chicken or beef or veal or fish. For example, for the roast chicken flavor, season with garlic powder, onion powder, thyme and paprika. Roll in some whole grain crumbs, or crumbs of ground nuts, and bake for about 10-15 minutes, until it looks cooked.
Prepare the vegetables you normally would eat with roast chicken, like roasted carrots, parsnips, or potatoes, add something green and you have created a plant based meal that is bulky and tasty.
For a veal taste, roll the masked bean mixture in some whole grain crumbs or ground nuts and season with lemon juice and capers. Bake the same way and add steamed broccoli or asparagus.
Experiment and share your ideas with me. Being a vegan is easier and tastier than you expected, isn't it?
