Vegan Menudo (One Pot Filipino Style Stew)

soy curls (roughly chopped (see notes for substitutes))

(3 large pcs) king oyster mushrooms (roughly chopped)

(440 grams) tomato sauce

tomato paste

½ tbsp vegetable paste ((Better Than Bouillon))

water

plant milk ((I used almond milk)

½ medium (½ cup) yellow onions (chopped)

(1 tbsp) garlic (minced)

large (1 cup) carrots (sliced)

large (1 cup) Yukon Gold potatoes (chopped to bite sized pieces)

garbanzo beans (drained)

bay leaves

garlic powder

sugar ((I used brown sugar))

onion powder

unsalted butter OR extra virgin olive oil

salt & pepper

bell pepper (green

vegan hotdog

raisins

green peas

Preheat soup pot to medium heat and coat a tablespoon of cooking oil.

On a medium sized mixing bowl, rehydrate soy curls in hot water and cover to soften for about five minutes. Strain from bowl using a collander or strainer. Squeeze out any excess liquids out of the soy curls as much as you can.Roughly chop into chunks. Different sizes are okay for texture.

On a separate small mixing bowl or cup, dilute a tablespoon of vegetable paste in water. Mix and set aside.

Sauté soy curls in the pot until it slightly browns. Season with a little salt and pepper. Remove from pot and set aside.

Re-coat pot with a drop of oil. Toss the onions to sauté. Add the garlic and stir until well combined. Then, toss the mushrooms in. Mix and let the mushrooms sweat and shrivel in size. Add the seasonings such as the garlic &amp; onion powder and sugar.

Drop the carrots, potatoes, and bay leaves into the mix. Along with the vegetable broth. Stir and cover with a lid to simmer for 5-7 minutes or when potatoes are slightly tender.

Add the soy curls and garbanzo beans into the mix. Pour tomato sauce and paste, as well, and stir until ingredients are well combined. Add the milk and a splash of tamari. Stir. Lower down the heat to medium low and cover with a lid to simmer for another 5-7 minutes.

Remove lid. The stew should have thickened slightly due to the starch content of the potatoes. Drop ½ a tablespoon of vegan butter or extra virgin olive oil to give the tomato broth a creamy finish. Season with salt &amp; pepper to taste.

Serve with a bed of rice and enjoy!

Delicious! Approved by my two teenage daughters as well!

I made this recipe last night and it was SO yummy! My husband loved it too. Definitely going to be in our whole 30 recipe rotation!!! So good!

This recipe is super easy and most importantly delicious!  Thank you for helping me survive my whole 30!

These were SO good! Had it on top of salad too. Yum!

Absolutely delicious! Cannot wait time make them again!

These things are amazing—super easy to make and tastes so fresh!

My family loves these! We’ve eaten them every other week since first trying them! Even my 3 year old gobbles then up!

These Asian lettuce wraps were amazing! As I am trying to eat healthier finding meals that both myself and my boyfriend like can be challenging at times. I ended up using romaine lettuce instead of butter lettuce since I had some in the fridge. It worked but definitely making these again and using butter lettuce instead. Highly recommend!

I lived off of lettuce wraps during my first Whole30, but these are next level! One thing I miss most during Whole30 is crunch - bread, chips, etc. This recipe gives the perfect amount of crunch and flavor! Definitely adding to my regular rotation of meals. Highly recommend for moms on the go as this always leaves me with leftovers for next day lunch! Yum!!

Love how easy this dish comes together!! It was so delish, my almost 1 year old absolutely loved it also! Can’t wait to add this to our rotation again and again!!

This turned out SOOOOO good! I had to use romaine lettuce instead of butter lettuce because that’s all I had but it was literally so delicious. And easy and fast!!

Delicious and guilt free dinner! My whole family loved it! This is going to be a staple in our house from now on!

What a fantastic recipe! Husband approved. We just started our keto journey and this a great addition to our repertoire.

This was delicious. I didn’t have butter lettuce, water chestnuts or cashews, so I stir-fried some pine nuts and cauliflower rice and layered all of it over a handful of baby spinach. Wonderful one-bowl meal. I’m tracking calories and would love it if you’d include caloric and nutritional info with your recipes!

Spicy Cashew Butter Stir Fry

2-3 tbsp Olive Oil

Onion (chopped)

Garlic

oz Mushrooms (sliced)

Sugar Snap Peas (sliced or whole)

Rice Noodles (cooked)

Cashew Butter

tbsp Spicy Sesame Oil (or regular sesame oil + hot sauce)

tbsp Soy Sauce

tbsp Fresh Lime Juice

tbsp Coconut Sugar

tbsp Mirin

tsp Rice Vinegar

Water

Start by making your sauce - add all ingredients (except water) to a small bowl and whisk together until combined. Finish off by adding 3 tbsp water plus any additional until desired consistency is reached.

Next, add 1 tbsp olive oil, chopped onion, and minced garlic to a large skillet. Sauté for 3-5 minutes over medium heat or until onions have started to brown. Remove from pan and set aside in a small bowl.&nbsp;

To the same large skillet, add another 1-2 tbsp of olive oil along with the sliced mushrooms. Cook for ~5 minutes over medium heat or until they have browned nicely.

Pork Dumplings are sausage, cabbage, sweet ginger, and garlic-filled soft dough wraps that are scrumptiously fried or steamed.

Sweet Pork Fried Dumplings

oz package all natural round wraps (I use Nasoya wraps)

egg beaten

lb pork sausage (uncooked

savoy or napa cabbage

fresh grated ginger or ginger paste

garlic

mirin

sesame oil

green onions sliced 1/4 inch wide

Vegetable oil

Combine beaten egg, ground pork, cabbage, ginger, garlic, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon mirin, and 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil in a medium bowl. After mixing, place in refrigerator for 30 minutes.

When working with the wraps, cover non-stuffed and stuffed ones with cold, wet paper towels to keep them from drying out. Holding the wrapper in one hand, dip your index on your free hand in cold water. Moisten 1/2 of the wrap with that finger making a 180-degree circle around the edge of the wrap that is furthest from you. Now place a rounded teaspoonful of the meat mixture in the middle. Fold over and gently seal one end to the other, pressing the wrap together to close tightly. Repeat until the meat mixture is gone, placing them on a lightly greased cookie sheet and covering them with moistened paper towels.

Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add a batch of about ten dumplings and cook until browned on one side, approximately 2-3 minutes. Add 2/3 cup of water to the skillet, cover, and cook for 3 minutes. Uncover the pan flip the dumplings, and cook until the water is gone and the other side of the dumpling has browned; approximately 3-5 minutes.

Mix 2/3 cup soy sauce, 1/3 cup mirin, and 1/8 teaspoon sesame oil in a small bowl to serve with the dumplings. Sprinkle several tablespoons of chopped green onion on the sauce.

Sprinkle the remaining green onions on the dumplings right before serving.

These pork dumplings look absolutely divine! I love the crispy bottoms. :)

Who knew dumplings were so easy to make! Trying this soon.

Can I make these dumpkings without cooking the pork first like they do in chinese restaurants

I have always wanted to make these at home! I can't wait to try this recipe!

Mmm, these look so yummy - I can't wait to try them!

These turned out so good! The entire family loved them and you were exactly right about making a double batch!

These look phenomenal!! I'll take a dozen!

I adore dumplings, but I have never made them myself. These look pretty easy, and delicious.

My kids love eating dumplings! Love how easy these are to put together at home!

Love this recipe! It was so easy and absolutely delicious! Will be making again for sure!

We tried these last week and loved the recipe.  We used the Instant Pot for steaming and decided we wanted to just try them steamed and maybe the next time, try them both ways.  I have to admit, steamed was really good.  We Made another 20 and placed them in the freezer by Freezer them on a cookie sheet and then transferring to the sealing bags. Wanted to see How they turn out from Frozen.  Thanks for the recipe.

Miren can be found at Asian Grocery  Stores and online at Amazon. If you go with sherry, go with DRY Sherry, found in Liquor Stores, don't use cooking Sherry, Sweet Sherry, or any other but the dry. I have gotten into arguments with the assistants at the stores about this, I use Taylor Dry Sherry, but beware, they also have a bottle labeled "Cooking Sherry.".
