Vegan, freezable recipes

[Chasing Amy]

A good friend is going to have back surgery later this week and will be laid up for awhile so I want to bring her individual meals in tupperware containers. She's a vegan and the food will need to be freezer friendly. Whatcha got?

Hmm, this isn't great on protein, but ratatouille is vegan, delicious, and freezes really well.

chickpea curry

thai sweet potato soup (using coconut milk and peanuts or peanut butter)



I wish I had a recipe for either one, but I make it up as I go along... puree the soup though if you make one, otherwise freezability is questionable...

Taco Soup

1 small onion, diced
1 carrot, diced
1-2 ribs celery, diced
2 cans beans, drained (black, pinto, kidney, whatever)
1 can tomato sauce
1 can diced tomatoes (undrained)
1 small can corn
3/4-1 cup veggie stock or water
1 Tb chili powder
1 Tsp garlic powder (or use a few cloves of fresh garlic and saute with the other aromatics)
1/2 tsp cumin
Salt & Pepper to taste

Saute the onions, carrots, and celery in a bit of oil until onions are translucent. Add everything else and simmer for 2 hours. Serve with tortilla chips.

*Note on the spices, the original recipe is double this size and calls for a taco seasoning packet. It makes a ton. Instead of using the seasoning packet, I just kind of eyeball the spices and taste as I go. The measurements I gave are just a guideline, and you can also add cayenne if you like it spicy (I don't). It's hard to mess up the seasonings, if you use too much chili powder it just tastes more like enchilada sauce and is still good.

Also I'm usually impatient and don't let it simmer for 2 hours before I eat some. It's still good, but it's better the next day after the flavors meld a bit.

Chili, burritos (bean rice vegan cheeze), you can make a lasagna with tofu instead of the cheese, stews and soups.

Mujadra?

Soups are great for this.

I made a vegan moussaka years ago that was delicious.
