Recipe Round-Up: More Quick-Fix Vegan

I love Robin Robertson's series of 'Quick-Fix' books, and More Quick-Fix Vegan is great. You can see my previous round-ups of this book here.

Stovetop Seitan: This is the same recipe that appears in Quick-Fix Vegan. It is a very fast, easy recipe. There are three options for cooking the seitan, but I like this stove top one, it comes out nice and firm.

Garden Vegetable Bean Soup: This is a super simple soup to make, and is full of all sorts of great veggies. I used a blend of kale and spinach for the greens, rather than just straight kale, and also used a drained tin of diced tomatoes instead of chopping a fresh one. As well as veggies and white beans, this also has a grain added. I chose cooked brown rice.

Sushi Bowls: These were fun bowls. I used 1 cup of uncooked sushi rice, which I cooked in my rice cooker. There are lots of crunchy veggies on top, and I subbed in radish instead of using capsicum. I also added a block of Japanese flavoured tofu. Served over salad greens, I got three serves from this, rather than 4.

Banh-Mi Bowls: Robin loves Bahn-Mi, and loves making all sorts of bahn-mi inspired dishes. This yummy bowl has salad, veggies and tofu with a hoisin-based sauce, as well as toasted bread cubes. I got three servings out of this rather than 4.

Quinoa and Black Bean Chili Bowls: I made a half batch of this and got two decent servings (the full recipe serves four). I didn't have fire-roasted tomatoes, so just added a bit of liquid smoke to regular tinned tomatoes. This is a very substantial dinner.

Mac Uncheesy Bowls: I love mac and cheese. The white bean based sauce in this is thickened by adding either chopped roasted capsicum or cooked butternut, I think we all know that I used the butternut. The sauce is quite thick, which is very satisfying.

Mediterranean Tofu Scram-Bowls: Scramble... scram-bowl... get it? I used extra firm tofu instead of firm here, and subbed in carrot instead of capiscum in the vegetable mix. You have the option of using basil or parsley for garnish, I used basil. I served this with some baked potato slices.

Sesame-Orange Tempeh with Snow Peas: My dad is always a bit sad when I serve tempeh, it isn't his favourite. But he really liked it here thanks to the great sauce. I used a 300g block of tempeh rather than 250g, so I used the larger Australian tablespoon rather than the US tablespoon when measuring out the sauce. Served over brown rice and baby spinach.

Vegetable Fried Rice and Quinoa: Great for when you have leftover grains kicking about, and the full quantity will make quite a lot! I also probably had closer to 2 cups of tofu, rather than just one. I subbed in corn instead of capsicum.

Black Beans and Spinach with Tomato-Avocado Salsa: The beans and spinach here are a little on the bland side, I ended up adding a bit of cumin, but they are picked up beautifully by the fresh avocado and tomato salsa that tops them. Served with brown rice.
