Can vegans eat frozen yogurt?

Thursday, July 31st, 2008


one thing i can’t get enough of if frozen yogurt, but at the same time i really want to be vegan or vegeterian, so i keep switching off BECAUSE of frozen yogurt.

can’t i just make one acception?

 

Ok, firstly, if it is only yogurt (which uses milk) that you cannot resist but you are okay with meat and fish, you can call yourself a vegetarian. There are like 10 names for vegetarians (inclding vegans) which I don’t remember and I don’t want to. I am not such a fun of labels.

Anyway, there is cheese for vegans made out of soy milk or another milk (except milk from animals) so I guess that there might be even yogurt.

However, if you really wanna be a vegan, what you can do, is find how they make yogurt (home made yogurt) and replace the milk with soy milk. The taste won’t be the same, but it will be similar.

A google search for home made yogurt or home made vegan yogurt might clear it up for you!

As I said though, I am not sure if there is vegan yogurt. i just guess because there is cheese for vegans.

—–

Vegetarianism and veganism is a personal thing. If you want to make one acception, do it.
Although there are some people who will get upset if you use a term that doesn’t technically apply to you, so you can call yourself a lacto-vegetarian.

How to make…?

Friday, July 18th, 2008


a skinny chocolate chiller from second cup? It’s so delicious, I want to know how to make it myself. It’s not on their website, and neither are the ingredients.

 

Chocolate Chiller
Makes 2 servings
A coffee-based drink, this would be most appreciated by adults, as it is not too sweet. It’s easy to make, though, and would be a nice treat for a hot afternoon. This must be served immediately after it is completed. You’ll need a 12-ounce glass for each serving.
2 tsp. instant coffee granules
1/2 cup boiling water
1 cup very cold water
2 to 4 scoops good-quality chocolate sorbet,
slightly softened
Lightly sweetened whipped cream
Optional Garnish:
Sprinkle of cinnamon OR
Pinch of finely grated semisweet chocolate
Place coffee granules into a heatproof, two-cup capacity liquid measure. Add boiling water; stir to dissolve. Add cold water and blend well. Divide evenly between two tall, 12-ounce capacity glasses.

Working quickly, add 1 or 2 scoops of slightly softened sorbet to each glass. Stir thoroughly for a minute or two. Most of the sorbet will melt (OK), and the glass will become cold to the touch, which is what you want to happen. The glasses will be at least three-quarters full at this point. Fill the glasses to the top with lightly sweetened whipped cream. If desired, top with an optional garnish. Serve immediately!

Moosewood cookbook Italian Sauce recipe?

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008


We can’t find our recipe for Moosewood Restaraunt’s Italian Tomato Sauce…I only remember that this recipe calls for bacon in it. I’ve looked EVERYWHERE on-line, and I cannot find it. If one of you happens to have the recipe, could you PLEASE give it to me?

http://dinnercoop.cs.cmu.edu/dinnercoop/…

Italian Tomato Sauce
Originally From: Moosewood Cookbook by Mollie Katzen
Very good on Pizza and in lasagne — I’ve even shocked people when I told them it was vegetarian!

2-3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups chopped onion
1 medium-sized bell pepper, diced
2 medium stalks celery, minced
1 lb mushrooms
1-2 medium (6″) zucchini, diced
2-3 medium-sized ripe tomatoes, chopped
a handful of fresh basil leaves, chopped
2 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 28 oz can tomatoes
1 6 oz can tomato paste
1 tablespoon honey
lots of black pepper
4-6 large cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup freshly minced parsley

Heat the olive oil in deep saucepan. Add vegetables, herbs (except parsley) and salt. Saute over medium heat until the onion is very soft (~15 minutes).

Add canned tomatoes, tomato paste, honey and black pepper. Use a spoon to break up the tomatoes into bite-sized pieces. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer, partially covered at least 30 minutes.

Add garlic, and cook 10 minutes more. At this point, the sauce can sit for up to several hours, or be refrigerated up to a week, or frozen.

Heat gently before serving, and add parsley at the last minute
