Claire's Macaroni and Cheeze
The only thing from this book I wasn't entirely pleased with...it was meh. (dannibazaar)
Makes a nice creamy sauce. Had to reduce the milk to one cup to get a thick enough sauce. The milk dilutes a lot of the cheese flavor, but it's a good way to stretch out your vegan cheese budget. I usually add some nooch and cayenne to make up for it. I also use a dash of dry mustard instead of the dijon. (kristinv)
I love this recipe. I made it with Follow Your Heart Cheese, which doesn't melt as well as Daiya, and it tasted amazing. (haricot)
I wanted to try this, because it's very similar to my usual mac and cheese, but uses the flour. It's good, but I like mine better, and no flour needed! Daiya is enough to thicken the sauce, and it can cook down as needed. I also like to add quite a bit of nooch to up the flavor. As is, this was a mild flavor, but still creamy and good. (AC)
Roasted Cherry Tomato Pasta

Roasted Cherry Tomato Pasta with Kalamata Olives and Capers
Surprising recipe. I added toasted nuts as suggested in the intro. I would definitely make this again. (haricot)
Pasta with 5 Minute Roasted Red Pepper Pesto
was one of the first dishes I made as a newbie vegan and it has become an instant favourite! I've made several times already -- such an easy recipe & really yummy. I served it to mega-omni friends and they loved it so much they asked me for the recipe! I'm not using as much garlic as the recipe calls for though. And if I don't have enough fresh basil I (partly) use a basil herb cube instead. (gnoe)
Pasta with Fresh 5 Minute Basil Tomato Sauce
So good! I didn't measure the basil, but used way more. This sauce is so fresh and tasty. I wouldn't normally process a fresh tomato sauce, but this works really well. It gets a little watery, but I don't mind. I would only suggest adding more basil, but it doesn't need anything else. Will definitely make again. Only takes the time for the pasta to cook. (AC)
Excellent and healthy. This recipe is easy to make, not too hearty and different from the pasta dishes I usually eat. The sauce is raw. (haricot)
Gerry's Quick Broccoli and Hot Chili Pepper Pasta
Quick, simple and excellent. This is a four ingredient recipe. I made it with flax oil and I loved it... but you have to like the taste of that oil. (haricot)
Punk Kin Pasta
Excellent and different. I often don't know what to do with pumpkin purée, so I often end up making this recipe. It's fun to eat, very saucy and full of sausage crumbs. It doesn't take a long time to prepare. (haricot)
Spaghetti and Tofu Balls
Excellent. (haricot)
Portobello Cannelloni with Sun Dried Tomato White Sauce
We both loved these!  I made them and then thought with the lack of ingredients that they would be plain and boring, but no way - they were great.  I managed to find cannelloni that didn't need precooking before going in the oven and so it was also pretty simple to make.  N really enjoyed the bits of sun dried tomatoes in the cheesy sauce, so may use that again for other recipes.  N has said I could make this again - always a good sign. (shelloid)
Dilip's Stuffed Manicotti with Roasted Red Pepper and Porcini Mushroom Sauce
awesome.  I made these recipes for guests who are all meat eaters and they loved them. (islandvegi)
Instant love. This was my first time making and eating manicotti. I had a hard time finding those pasta in the store, but the rest of the ingredients are easy to find. It doesn't take such a long time to prepare either. (haricot)
Gerry's Artichoke Heart and Basil Pasta
Great recipe. It stands out from other recipes and I thought it looked fancy. (haricot)
Peacefrog's Artichoke Heart Pasta
Very good. (haricot)
Jen's Creamy Basil and Sun Dried Tomato Pasta
Very good. I added more salt and some vegan bacon bits though. (haricot)
Marianne's Goulash
Amazing! (haricot)
Matthew's Spicy Tomato Peanut and Kale Pasta
Terrific. I think that was my first time eating kale, a couple of years ago. (haricot)
Mock Beef and Rice Noodle Toss
Okay, well I kind of just used this as a sort of inspiration. Instead of using seitan, I marinated a cup of chopped tempeh in the teriyaki sauce. I used a half of a vidalia onion rather than a small red onion, added 2 cups of steamed broccoli, and used two cups of cooked brown rice in place of the rice noodles. So it was kind of like a stir fry sort of deal. It tasted really good! I'd like to try it with noodles sometime, but the rice was just waiting to be used up. Next time will be noodle time. (dannibazaar)
Wonderful. I like eating this with chopsticks. (haricot)
Phebe's Mushroom Stroganoff
Wonderful. (haricot)
Red Lentil Pasta
Very good, but kind of bland. (haricot)
Rice Entrees
Teresa's Garlic Shoot Stir Fry
This is a great recipe to cook a lot of garlic scapes. The sauce is absolutely out of this world, although a tad too salty. (haricot)
Cinnamon Spiced Roasted Veggies with Couscous
Excellent. The tastes are not too strong. (haricot)
Wendy's Lentil and Brown Rice Casserole
Okayish. Not overly flavourful or anything like that. Just meh. (dannibazaar)
Delicious and filling. (haricot)
Veggie Goulash
Not too bad. Didn't expect a whole lot, but wasn't disappointed. I did the recipe fairly closely, but added some garden green beans, and some penzey's smoky seasoning (with the smoked paprika). I used the 2 tsps paprika. I did it with the brown rice. Pretty good meal. Healthy. (AC)
Just okay. (haricot)
Aloo Gobi Potatoes and Cauliflower
Very good. (haricot)
Aloo Mattar Potatoes and Peas
Excellent. (haricot)
Cousin Natasha's Everything but the Kitchen Sink Vegetable Curry
I didn't know what to except I really enjoyed this dish. (haricot)
Inder and Vandna's Punjabi Peppers and Tofu
Very ordinary. (haricot)
Eggplant Bharata
Sublime. The eggplant just tastes wonderful. (haricot)
Eggplant Parmesan
one of my favourite recipes from here. (dannibazaar)
Blessed Broccoli and Tofu Stir Fry
Delicious. (haricot)
Bountiful Beans and Brown Rice
Excellent. (haricot)
Curry Fennel Cauliflower Bake
This was disappointing. Turned out really dry and lacking flavor. (kristinv)
It's good, but nothing more. (haricot)  
Eileen's Sesame Ginger Stir Fry

Emira's Speedy Gourmet Kale and Tofu Delight
Excellent (haricot)
Fail.  Did not like this at all.  I'm not sure what I didn't like, but I think it's just the plainness of it all and that balsamic vinegar just wasn't right and that kale and tofu are a bad pair.  I used a whole lb of tofu instead of a 1/2 pound and didn't add any pine nuts at the end.  To make it taste better I drenched it with Maggi seasoning and that helped some.  (tweety)
Magnificent Mixed Beans and Bulgur
Didn't work out well. The bulgur never ended up cooking. (dannibazaar)
Just okay. (haricot)
Fantastic.  Everything came together real well for a very tasty main course meal.  I used 2 15 oz. cans instead of one 19 oz. can of mixed beans but otherwise followed the recipe.  I liked the method of sauteeing the eggplant and then not simmering but 10 minutes, which kept the eggplant from becoming mush.   I like how the fresh tomatoes were added at the end rather than cooked, it added a great dimension of flavor.  Total redemption from the fail mentioned above. (tweety)
Vegetable Biryani
love it!!!  I hate peas so I used pigeon peas instead.  I used brown batsmati rice instead of white, so I cooked the rice separately and mixed it together at the end. (tweety)
Extraordinary. (haricot)
Shirley's Cajun Red Beans and Rice
I used quinoa instead, as I already had a rice dish the day before and I like variety.  It was very good.  I forgot to add the sugar/sweetener and I didn't miss it.  I like hot and spicy food and it was fine...even added extra cayenne and hot sauce.  Yummy! (tweety)
Just okay. (haricot)
Miscellaneous Entrees
Tyler and Phoebe's Perfect Pesto Pizza

Veggie Pot Pie
Perfect. This is my go-to pot pie recipe. I've made it countless times. (haricot)
Tip Top Tofu Loaf
Just a note - double the recipe to have it in a 9x5 pan. Otherwise you need to use a mini-loaf pan to have it "fit." The recipe described as is would result in a wicked thin tofu loaf (dannibazaar)
Excellent. (haricot)
Groovy Garden Vegetable Casserole

Pinto Bean Casserole with Tortilla Chip Crust

Karen's Mexican Burrito Pie

Black Bean and Sweet Potato Burritos
Not that long to prepare. Excellent recipe and filling. Make sure you put the full amounts of spices. I replaced the cheese with nutritional yeast. And I cooked the burritos in the oven. (haricot)
I loved these!  The flavours were fantastic and they were really easy to make.  In the intro she says that they take a bit more time to make than others in the book, but I thought it was real quick for a substantial meal.  I baked mine in the oven as I like how the tortilla goes crunchy and even with the 15mins baking, it was probably only about 40 mins total.  N also loved these and said I can definitely make them again - he liked them enough to say I should serve them to guests! (I didn't use the optional vegan cheese, and don't think they needed them)
(shelloid)
Sloppy Jane's
Very tasty.... but healthy more than sloppy. (haricot)
Tu no Open Face Sandwich
Yummy. (haricot)
Curry Almond Burgers

Mama Mayhem's Tofu Extravaganza
Incredible recipe. My mom always makes it when she as guests over and people are always surprised to see that tofu can taste so good. (haricot)
Coconut Curried Veggies
Excelllent. (haricot)
Festive Stuffed Butternut Squash
Excellent. (haricot)
Sarah's Chili Con Bulgur
Excellent and easy. (haricot)
Tasty Tempeh Chili
Very good. (haricot)
Sherri's Black Bean Chili
Excellent. (haricot)
Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
I've made this several times and it was always a hit. It's just perferct, and on the fancy side. (haricot)
Emily's Meat Loaf
Excellent recipe. My bf finds it tastes like real meat loaf. (haricot)
We loved this!  I probably haven't had meat loaf in like 25 years, but I had a craving for it.  This recipe totally satisfied the craving.  Instead of burger crumbles, I crumbled 2 packages of tempeh in the processor and browned it in a skillet.  I also added about 1/2 tsp browning sauce.  Other than that, I pretty much followed the recipe.  I served it while it was still really hot and it did not hold together well at all.  The leftovers were much firmer and sliced nicely.  The next time I make this, I will cook it a day before serving.  Seriously delicious! (lotus)
Jay Lo's Fried Chicken
One of my favorite recipes from this book. I make it using the chicken style seitan from the same book. It's real comfort food. (haricot)
Mushroom Sausage Pizza
Amazing! (haricot)
Portobello Pot Pie
Absolutely yummy and easy to make. (haricot)
Wolffie's Southwestern Corn Casserole
Genius. Quick. It tastes cheesy even though it doesn't contain any fake cheese or nutritional yeast. It's also quite spicy. (haricot)
Tofu Roast
A keeper. It takes a while to prepare, but it is totally worth it! Make this for the holidays. (haricot)
The Joint's Cheeseburger Pizza
I was skeptical about the combination of pickled, mock ground meat, and mustard, but it rocks. (haricot)
Tomato Walnut Crusted Fried Chicken
Freaking awesome. I could eat this every week. (haricot)
Baked Chili with Cornbread Biscuit Topping
I really enjoyed this chili, but my boyfriend thought the biscuit topping was too sweet. (haricot)
Sauces
Claire's Cheeze Sauce

Wolffie's Nutritional Yeast Cheese Sauce
This is not very good. I wasn't expecting much because the ingredients seem bland, and it was. I was hoping maybe it would just be a nice mild cheeze, but it's just blah with an off flavor. Doesn't taste like much, but what flavor is there is not that enjoyable. Not worth keeping the leftovers. (AC)
My boyfriend, my dad and I just love this sauce. We've been eating it at least once a month for the past few years. I've tried several nutritional yeast-based "cheese" sauces over the years, and this is the best by far... but I am a nooch-lover. And that sauce only takes a few minutes to prepare. I sometimes eat it with a spoon. (haricot)
Shoshana's Spectacular All Purpose Tahini Sauce

Tyler and Phoebe's Perfect Pesto Sauce

5 Minute Roasted Red Pepper Pesto

Fast and Fresh Tomato Sauce

Fresh 5 Minute Basil Tomato Sauce

Quick All Purpose Garlic Tomato Sauce

Simple Spaghetti Tomato Sauce

Dilip's Roasted Red Pepper and Porcini Mushroom Sauce

Malloreigh's Mushroom Gravy
A nice, hearty gravy. I used cremini mushroom because they have a stronger taste and opted for the chunky version instead of putting it in the blender. I added some chopped cashews (15 gr) for a topping and the nutty flavour was a great addition. When I try the smooth version next time I'll probably make the cashews part of the sauce. (gnoe)
Merciful Miso Gravy

Red Lentil Sauce

Spicy Nut Dressing

Sun Dried Tomato White Sauce

Baked Goods
Kalamata and Sun Dried Tomato Soda Bread
Excellent bread, very tasty. (haricot)
Sarah's Sandwich Spelt Bread
I liked this bread a lot, although my boy friend did not. I liked how the sunflower seeds turned green after cooking. I left the bread in the oven for 55 minutes, and that was more than enough. (haricot)
Kissing Cousins Oat Bread
This was just alright... (haricot)
Cumin Spiced Quick Bread

Chapati Flat Bread

Wolffie's Buttermilk Cornbread
Excellent. I like to serve it with chili. (haricot)
Very surprised by this cornbread! I did double the sugar (6 tbs), but otherwise stuck to the recipe. I like a sweeter cornbread. This turned out quite good. I baked 25 minutes, and it's not dry at all, with perfect cornbread texture. Flavor is excellent. Super simple..took me about 5 minutes to mix together. I was skeptical of not mixing the milk and ACV together first, but I guess it works well either way. I wouldn't be opposed to this again. Even P, the biggest cornbread hater of all time, had a piece and said it was "fine." (AC)
Jen's Raisin Soda Bread
Wonderful. It's great for breakfast, toasted and with margarine... the suggested addition of a teaspoon of grated orange zest is a must. And don't bake it for more than 40 minutes. (haricot)
Simple Sassy Soda Bread
Excellent. It's important to add the optional sesame seeds, so that the bread is not too boring. (haricot)
Easy French Bread
For some reason this ends up different from the recipe from GOV. Good all the same, but I prefer the other. (dannibazaar)
Delicious! P said this was his favorite bread I've made, and one of his favorite things overall. I didn't have huge expectations for it, because it seemed like it'd be pretty normal, but it turned out really well. I used my stand mixer/dough hook, and probably about 3 1/2 cups flour. I made 2 medium loaves. 1/4 cup sesame seeds is too much to toast for these. I would maybe do 22 minutes next time, instead of 20, but P liked everything as is. I don't really think you can test bread with a toothpick? That won't necessarily tell you that it's actually done. Anyway, great, easy bread. (AC)
Heather's Swedish Rye Bread

Sassy Sandwich Bread
I have a loaf of this going at all times. I just LOVE it. It is the best. (dannibazaar)
I loved it. I made it in my bread machine. (haricot)
Basic Baking Power Biscuits
Quick and super good. I also recommend adding poppy seeds. (haricot)
Banana Currant Rice Flour Muffins

Bran Muffins

Wolffie's Eggnog Muffins

Wolffie's Banana Blueberry Muffins
Awesome! I love everything about them...the combo of blueberry, banana, and molasses is so tasty. (dannibazaar)
These are delicious!  I always love molasses in banana bread recipes.  I used whole wheat pastry flour, so they were a little dense, but still moist.  I used 2 sm-med bananas, reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup and only used 3 tbsp of oil.  I used grated fresh ginger instead of ground and used more than a tsp because we love ginger.  I baked them for the entire 25 minutes.  I will probably make these again. (lotus)
Mine didn't turn out well. The muffins were way too dry. (haricot)
These didn't work for me either. The texture was awful. I ended up making bread pudding with them because I didn't want to throw a dozen muffins away, too much waste. (vgnwitch)
Hayley's Lemon Cranberry Muffins
Amazing. A nice change from the muffins I usually bake. (haricot)
Cinnamon Apple Muffins
These are to die for. (haricot)
Stephanie's Sugarless Power Muffins
I like these quite a bit. They taste healthy, which I dig. I usually add chopped almonds for a textural kick. (dannibazaar)
Cumin Rice Flour Muffins
Not good. (haricot)
Fragrant Onion Dinner Rolls
I really liked these, despite them being a tad too dry. (haricot)
Sesame Bread Sticks
Very, very good. I think I liked these more than P did, but I'm not sure why they weren't his favorite. He did like them. I think the texture is perfect (light and fluffy, crispy top) and very flavorful. I used a few white sesame seeds and mainly black for the top. I mixed it all by hand and didn't knead for long. There's not much instruction for the best way to make these breadsticks, but I just hand shaped them instead of rolling out. I somehow did get 10! I guess I made them about 6". Mine rose for maybe close to an hour instead of 20 minutes, and I think they were pretty perfect. 15 minutes for baking was right on; the tops browned nicely. Would make again. (AC)
Brown Rice Flour Banana Bread
Yummy, considering I've never been a fan of banana bread. I love it was a shmear of raspberry jam or marmalade. (dannibazaar)
Miki's Pumpkin Bread

Scrumptious Banana Nut Bread

Homemade Graham Crackers
Not very graham cracker-y. Needs more molasses. (dannibazaar)
Faux Fare
Basic Instant Gluten
This is only sort of a recipe, because it's the first step to the faux meats. The measurements worked fine, but I've found I prefer to use some kind of broth or add seasonings instead of just using water. (kristinv)
Basic Gluten from Scratch

Mock Meats
Faux Sausage

Faux Fish

Faux Ham

Faux Chicken
Tastes good but not that "chicken"-y. I'm okay with that. I do like the nooch flavor here. Be VERY careful not to let it boil at all...only simmer. Otherwise the texture gets rubbery and squeaky. (kristinv)
Faux Beef

Faux Turkey

Homemade Vegan Marshmallows

Wolffie's Tofu Whipped Cream

Faux Feta Cheese

Cheryl's Faux Cheese

Faux Sour Cream

Quick and Easy Faux Mayonnaise

Pasta with Fresh 5 Minute Basil Tomato Sauce
So good! I didn't measure the basil, but used way more. This sauce is so fresh and tasty. I wouldn't normally process a fresh tomato sauce, but this works really well. It gets a little watery, but I don't mind. I would only suggest adding more basil, but it doesn't need anything else. Will definitely make again. Only takes the time for the pasta to cook.
