Red Lentil Dal

Posted in main dish, no-bake, side dish, vegan (dairy/egg/animal product free) on March 23, 2009 | 3 Comments »

Confetti (red cabbage, scallion, carrot, and edamame) Steamed Dumplings

This is a recipe from Leanne Kitchen’s (her real name, I swear) The Produce Bible on pg. 229 which I have altered and completely veganized. Her version had yogurt in it which I replaced with a pine nut cream. I also made it in my paella pan (mine is 12″ in diameter) that I brought [...]
