Soup/Stew/Scramble/Dal

Image
It's clear that I've mastered the soup/stew/dal combo from winning recipes like Indian-Spiced Yellow Split Pea Soup , Green and Orange Soup , Indian-Spiced Barley Stew , and Mushroom Dal . But now I've taken it up a notch and I introduce the soup/stew/dal/tofu scramble. I started with my Eggless Egg Salad from yesterday. I knew I wouldn't be able to finish all the leftovers as is (it made a lot) and I had some other veggies I wanted to make into soup. Then I got this craaazy idea to put in a couple scoops of my eggless salad. Like so: This was vaguely the recipe: Eggless Salad Split Pea Soup 1 cup yellow split peas 4 cups water 2 bunches kale stalks 1 bunch carrots and greens 1 onion 1 bunch celery 1 eggplant 1 tbsp mustard 1 tbsp garam masala 1 tsp curry powder 1 cup Eggless Egg Salad Chop all veggies, cook at least an hour until the correct texture, season to taste and mix in eggless salad. You can put any veggies in here. Seriously, try it. It's really...

Dehydrated Sweet and Spicy Indian Cauliflower

First, happy National Coming Out Day! I am coming out as a straight ally and I hope there will come a day when people don't have to hide who they are. And if you're stuck in high school or a conservative area and you're miserable, it will get better . Being an adult is the cat's pajamas and you can live your life and surround yourself with supportive, loving people. I felt like using my dehydrator today so I adapted this samosa recipe I blogged about here . If you recently got a dehydrator and are a little intimidated, this recipe is perfect because it's really easy and you can't mess it up. Dehydrators are definitely not a necessity, even if you eat 100% Raw, but they are fun and they create some lovely textures you can't get with traditional oven baking. Dehydrated Sweet and Spicy Indian Cauliflower 1 head cauliflower, separated into tiny florets 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced 1/2 cup snap peas, sliced 1 tbsp tamarind paste or fruit jam 1 tsp mustard 1 ts...
