Come join the Vegan Home Cooks!
Participation is really easy, just take a picture of what you cooked today and post it, no recipes needed.
This is a public forum for a discord server of friends who are all vegans and cook at home for their families.
We are here to share some inspiration, to see what others are doing and to stay engaged in something that is both our hobby and a required task.
This forum is not a "food porn" community, a recipe book or a place to teach you how to cook. It is a place for people who already cook to meet other people like themselves and provide on topic support and conversation as much as long distance friends on the internet can do. We are doing show and tell about what we made and we don't care about its instagram worthiness.
Veganism isn’t a diet but I have to eat every day. This is for the vegan home cooks. Anything non vegan will be deleted.
Rules
1. Be Vegan.
If it is not vegan it doesn’t belong here… or anywhere.
2. Post home cooking.
No restaurant or fast food. This is what every other vegan space is about and we don’t want to promote any large or small business tyrants.
We’re an active community of vegan home cooks that like to talk about what we are cooking today.
4. Do not make any rude comments or digs at anyone’s food, cooking style, specific diet, restrictions or technique.
While we are all cooks, we all have different requirements and we’re not asking for help, we are doing show and tell.
5. Do not use trademarked brands
Use generic names. We’re cooking with tvp not whatever business brands it and we’re not trying to turn comrades into billboards. No plant-based vegan-pandering capitalist crap like Impossible, Beyond, Dairy-company owned “vegan” cheese.
6. Do not ask for a recipe without otherwise engaging the OP (No posts that are just “recipe?”)
We are not food bloggers. Sometimes we're excited to share and will tell you the recipes we used but this isn't required. Instead try doing your own research and tell us what you learned and we can talk about it.
7. Careful with making unasked for suggestions.
Sometimes we like to hear suggestions but you should be nice about it and know the person you are making suggestions to. We are in the discord and you can get to know us that way. If you are just a visitor from the fediverse, this isn’t the place for you to start telling other people what to do.
8. Adults Only.
While this isn't a community for adult material we expect everyone who participates to be an adult. If you have a gross and profane username you will be removed.
A delectable assortment of vegetables interspersed in the finest rice noodles. The noodles are coated with a heaping spoon of 100% peanuts peanut butter, a giant glug of soy sauce and a sprinkling of my favorite hot paste.
What is the concept behind "oil free"? Peanut butter is quite fatty and also has unsaturated fat. Is it avoiding vegetable oils? I'm genuinely curious. I thought it was avoiding fat altogether.
It's no refined oils, but yes in general the idea is low fat too. Refined oils are just empty calories. A serving of 2 tbsp of this peanut butter would have 3 g fibre, 8 g protein, 2% of my daily calcium and 6% of my daily iron. Peanut oil would have none of that.
This was the only thing I managed to eat yesterday, so I'm not all that worried about the fat.
This is the website of one of the more famous proponents of a whole food plant based no oil diet: https://nutritionfacts.org/ Like I said in another comment, I'm not a strict adherent but I don't keep refined oil in the house and I try to make choices that align with it when I can muster enough fucks.
Looks tasty!
Hi there. Stumbled across this from “All.”
How come you didn’t use any oil to cook your veggies?
A recipe like this wouldn't normally use oil (maybe a chili oil but not to cook it), but I included that term because I think sometimes people think whole food plant based no oil food is a pile of avocados and fancy lettuce.
Oil is empty calories. It's extracted from its source but you don't get any of the good stuff in the foods. I'm not a super strict noiler but I don't keep/use cooking oils. I'll buy potato chips on occasion tho.
What’s peanuts peanut butter?
100% peanuts peanut butter?Like the only ingredient is peanuts?
I'm kinda high so I don't remember what it's called
I see it called "natural" peanut butter but then again that term is basically meaningless.
