need a Vegan recipe

[Allifunn]

Key note for cooking vegan...READ the ingredients!!! Most products contain animal products!!!! To ensure a true vegan diet...make everything fresh and make it yourself. I cooked a whole year this way...believe me, I know!

Not all pasta..you have to check the box...plus it has to be organic and whole wheat

Vegan doesn't require that it be organic and whole grain, does it? I thought vegan mean no animal products or bi-products. Am I totally missing something here?

This is a modified version of a recipe in the Atlanta Junior League's cookbook, "True Grits."

Yeah, the Goya products' section is getting bigger and bigger at our Publix. I saw a report that said that more salsa is sold at grocery stores than ketchup. No surprise. I didn't even know what salsa was until well into my adulthood.

Goya O'boya......love it.
I love their coconut soda and they have pineapple too.
Sometimes I mix together and make a pina colada soda.

SJ, I would imagine "For the Health of It" in BMB could give you lots of ideas that are for purist vegans?

What do they use to bind the flour?

If you want to make your own pasta...there is a product that is an egg substitute. It is a powder you mix with water or soy milk. I made many a crepe for Caroline using this product...filling it with blueberries and tofu cream cheese

UMMMM.....YES!!!!! Most pastas do not contain egg

That's why I mentioned ovo-lacto. Hell, I dunno what you do about pasta if you're ovo-lacto. (I mean, SJ, what do you eat at Borago if you're ovo-lacto?) Actually I think that my pasta machine recipe book has a recipe with no eggs or milk.

The vegan that I cooked for had specific requirements...mostly organic AND whole wheat...which is HEALTHIER...ergo VEGAN mentality..HEALTHY

What is ovo-lacto? ( I get the lacto part)

It sounds like a woman's problem.

SJ is not vegan...I assume he is going to a party that consists of mostly vegans.... and maybe he will be converted...NAHH...chef John would NEVER permit it....

Ovo: relating to eggs.

And yes, only we women have eggs (until a certain age, that is -- then the ovaries disappear). Really we don't need males to carry on the human race. All we need is a big sperm bank (and maybe some rabbits to add some funn), and the hu-woman race will continue.

Of course, I am fond of having my Big D around.
