Ingredients

Bolognese – "Beanese" sauce

  • 3 onions
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • ½ chili (depends on strength)
  • 3 tbsp tomato paste
  • 100 g firm tofu
  • 4 medium tomatoes
  • 10 black olives
  • ½ celery stem
  • 1 dl water *
  • 1 can black chickpeas (or black beans)
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp coconut sugar / brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp Italian seasoning *
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 10 fresh basil leaves

Further ingredients

  • spaghetti (GF if necessary)
  • nutrional yeast (optional) (GF if necessary)
  • fresh basil

Instructions

  • Peel the onions and garlic and chop finely with the chili. Add it to a large saucepan with the tomato paste. Crumble the tofu on to the pan and fry for a few minutes.
  • Chop the tomatoes, olives and celery stem finely and add it to the saucepan with the water. Let it cook for 10 minutes.
  • Rinse the chickpeas and add them with the rest of the ingredients to the saucepan mixture. Let it simmer for another 10 minutes (or longer).
  • Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to instructions.
  • Serve the beanese with your freshly cooked pasta and top it with nutritional yeast and fresh basil leaves.

Notes

* If you don’t have a premixed Italian seasoning, add 1 tsp oregano, 1/4 tsp thyme, 1/4 tsp rosemary, 1/4 sage, 1/4 basil.
You can skip the water, if you like a more dense beanese, or just cooking it on high heat for a few minutes will make the water evaporate even more.

Ingredients

Porridge

  • 500 g rice (short grained white)
  • 1 l almond milk
  • 0.5 l oat milk (GF if necessary, or rice milk)
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 4 dcl water
  • 75 ml oat cream (optional, GF if necessary, or another kind of cream)
  • 1 tsp himalayan salt

Topping

  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • vegan butter

Instructions

Rice pudding

  • Turn the oven to 150°C.
    Alternatively it can be cooked in the pot but it takes less effort to use the oven and minimises the chances of the rice pudding burning/sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Rinse your rice before adding them to a pot with with the water. Cook and stir until the water is soaked by the rice (about 5 min).
  • Add the oat and coconut milk to the pot. Stir until it boils, making sure it doesn't burn/stick to the bottom of the pot.
  • Put a lid on the pot and set in the oven for about 45 min. You might want to have a tray under it in case it spills over.
  • Take the pudding out of the oven, give it a stir and add the salt. If the texture isn't creamy enough you can add some oat cream.
    Serve in a bowl.

Topping

  • Mix the sugar and cinnamon powder.
  • Add about a teaspoon of butter in the middle of the porridge, letting it melt and sprinkle some cinnamon sugar on top of the pudding.
