Filled bell peppers with cream chard.

Fry one finely chopped red onion with 3 cloves of garlic in a little oil until they're soft and translucent but not brown. Add soaked and seasoned minced TVP and 2 chopped carrots. I seasoned the TVP with salt, pepper, paprika, lime juice, vegetable broth.
Fill the bell peppers and put in a casserole. I mixed the leftover filling with pureed tomato and water and put it around the bell peppers. Bake in the oven for about 25 minutes. The bell pepper should be soft but still slightly crispy.
In the meanwhile cut chard into pieces and first fry the white bits, add a little water to steam. Then add soycream and green bits of chard, season with salt, pepper and 1 teaspoon mustard. Cook for about 10 minutes.
Serve bell pepper with the cream chard, it all fits perfectly together and was both beautiful and superdelicious.

Lamb's Lettuce with Kaki and Tofu.






Nice combination of sweet kaki and sour balsamic vinegar. Kaki has been my favourite fruit lately.

Dressing:


- 1 tablespoon soy cream 
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar cream
- salt, pepper, lime juice


Salad:


- 1 red bell pepper
- 100 g smoked tofu
- garlic
- 1 kaki
- lamb's lettuce
- 1 small tomato

Cut red bell pepper and tofu into small cubes and fry with the garlic in 1 teaspoon oil (I used walnut oil) until tofu is golden brown and your whole kitchen smells like garlic. I used about 3 cloves of garlic.




Put lamb's lettuce into a bowl, cut tomato and kaki into cubes and add to lettuce.




Add fried tofu and bell pepper and mix well with dressing. Serve while the tofu is still warm.

Eggplant-Tofu-Spinach with fried bell pepper, apples and dip.





This was so delicious and the combination of all these veggies are quite perfect!

- 1 eggplant

- 200g tofu

- 500g spinach

- 2 small red bell peppers
- 4 tablespoons soy yoghurt

- 1 teaspoon mustard

- 1 small sourish apple


Prepare spinach and stew in a little water for only a few minutes.
Stew slices of eggplant and apple in 1 teaspoon oil and a little water. Just add as much water as cover the bottom of your pan. This avoids greasy eggplants.



Flip them once and fry at low heat.
Season with salt and pepper. If ready, put eggplants and apple slices on a plate and fry tofu and bell pepper in 1 teaspoon oil.

For the dip:
Mix soy yoghurt with mustard, salt and pepper and -optional- vegan parmesan.

Layer eggplants, spinach and tofu to get small towers and serve with bell peppers, apples and dip.
