Video Vegan Pizza Rolls

Student Meal - When You Dont Have Much Time

I bought fake meat yesterday. I have never tried it before so I was pretty exited :p

All I did for this meal was heat the veggie meat for 10-15 minutes, add some tomato paste mixed with a small amount of ketchup. Feel free to add spices, but the meat I bought had some flavor to it :)
I then added the veggie meat on a whole wheat bagel. I pre heated the bagel in the stove while cooking the meat.

 Namnamnam!!!!!! Super tasty and good ! I´m going to buy this lots more.

 I could not help myself... I started eating before I remembered to take a picture

I also had non dairy chocolate milk. I love chocolate milk !!! This one has 30% calcium which is a nice excuse for me to drink it :)

If you want this to be more of a healthy meal add a side salad :)
Anyway have a good Sunday

Scrambled Tofu

Scrambled tofu is a fast and yummy meal to make in the morning or for any other meal of the day.

What need :
- U need a pack of tofu ( I think you can use pretty much any sort of tofu.)
- Veggie broth

Directions :
1. Sort of crumble the tofu in the skillet like you would when you make scrambled egg.
2. Add some veggie broth to give the tofu flavor.
3. Add other veggies and spices. I added cut tomatoes, mushroom and some oregano spice.

I'd say this is pretty health and it taste even better then normal scrambled egg. I have never been a fan off egg other then in cake, but when I went vegan I found out you don't need egg to make cupcakes or pancakes which was a nice surprise.
If you do however like egg and you have gone vegan this is the dish for you!!! Even I love it

Tomato soup ala Camilla Style

Yummy. Filled with vitamins from carrots and tomato.

You need:

-       Veggie broth

-       2 carrots

-       2 tomato’s

-       Pepper

-       Tofu (if you want protein and like egg in your tomato soup it kind reminds me off egg)

-       1 T Tomato puree

Directions:

1.     Shred the carrots and cut the tomato’s into pieces

2.     Heat around 1 ½ cup water with some veggie broth (I used half a square you know the once you can buy in a pack at the store)

3.     Let the water cool

4.     Add the shredded carrots, tomatoes and water in a blender. Let it become smooth in texture.

5.     Heat the mixture on your stove, add some pepper and tomato puree, and voila you have tomato soup.

If you want cut up some tofu and add to the mixture. I always do. Also add some basilicum on top.

 Tomato - I think my camera had the wrong setting since they look red here

This makes two bowls. If you are single save the second bowl for breakfast or dinner for the day after.

Enjoy the rest of the Sunday :D

Spring Rolls

I made spring rolls for the first time. I have always loved spring rolls. I love to dip them in sweet and sour sauce, but this time I had to use soy sauce instead (my sweet and sour sauce was empty).

It did not take long to make them and I was very surprised at how easy it was.

What you need :
- Spring roll sheets
- Filling of your choice  ( I imagine you can use whatever you have in your fridge. Here I used lettuce and shredded carrots).

Directions:
1. Heat your filling on the stove.
2. Take one spring roll sheet and dip it in a bowl with warm water. The sheet will become very soft and sticky.
3. Transfer the sheet to a plate where you cover 1/5 - 1/4 of it with filling.
4. Wrap the sheet tightly together so that all the filling is tucked inside.
If you don't know how to fold look at this
5. Cook the spring roll on middle heat for around 10 minutes on each side.

I hope you enjoy making spring rolls and the weekend. I know I am going to make some more and go buy some sweet and sour sauce.

What I have been eating Lately

I am still very busy with finals this last month. I love working with 3D and I am having such a good time being busy at school, but at the same time I don't have time for much else.
But back to the food. Here is some pictures of what I have been eating.
I hope it inspires you to be creative when it comes to food.

Dinner 1:
 I filled lettuce leafs with beans, tomato and corn in a tomato sauce. I ate it with french fries. I just had to have french fries this day. I was craving it so bad.

Dinner 2: Veggie soup
I heated water with veggie broth. Cut tofu in squares and combined in the water with sliced carrot and broccoli.  Yummy. It filled me up and gave me a warm and cosy feeling inside.

Dinner 3: Noodle soup
I used a pack of noodles, white beans, broccoli and veggie broth. I just love how easy it is to make !

Breakfast : Melted "Cheese" bread. I used a bread bun, cut it in half. I added ketchup and vegan cheese. I put the bread in the stove until the cheese melted and toped it with heated white beans and dry onion.
So easy to make and oh my so good. It was like eating a real fat filled toast.

Dessert : Coconut Ice Cream.
I used about 1 cup coconut milk, added some tablespoons of shredded coconut and some maple syrup. I filled a small bowl and put it in the freezer. I kept stirring the ice every hour to get a good texture since I don't have an ice cream maker.

Dessert 2: Banana Ice Cream
I put a banana in the freezer for a few hours. I mixed the banana in my mixer and topped it with some melted chocolate. Hmmm.

I got to say I love food, and I enjoy making food when I have the time and the space. My apartment is really small with no stove so cooking is not as much fun as at my mums house :p
One day ill get my own house :D

Miso Soup

I first made miso soup a year ago when I lived in San Fran and had bought Alicia Silverstone Kind Life Book. I had tasted miso soup before because most of my friends in SF were Asian and they all loved miso soup.

I learned that miso soup has a lot of health benefits. It is rich in protein and B12 vitamin, and it is shown to help prevent breast cancer. The seaweed in the soup is also shown to help lower blood pressure. Miso soup is filled with vitamins.

 I know for people who have not tasted miso soup it might look nasty. 

That was my first thought. 

But you know what I ended up really liking the soup so much so that I make it at home! The thing is you got to give new things a chance. Have you heard the term ; "Looks can deceive"?

How to make miso soup:

I just bought the finished miso paste with seaweed in it and cooked it with 1 1/2 cup of water and added bits of tofu.

You can buy miso powder and use that, but then you also have to buy seaweed to put in. I have done that before, but now I just find it easier to buy the finished mixture and just add the amount of water that is needed.

Enjoy your miso soup and the weekend!

What I have been eating for Dinner Lately

Here is some of the stuff I have been eating for dinner lately. It might look a bit boring, but I'm a student without a stove. I use different spices to make the dishes taste different. I love all these dishes. They are very very simple to make which suits me perfectly.

 Homemade hamburger with lettuce, corn, cucumber and pickles.

 Taco : Lettuce, cucumber and white beans with taco powder

 Brown rice, mushroom, white beans, carrot and peas with teriyaki sauce.

 Whole macaroni with tomato sauce, yellow onion, paprika and black beans.

 Red quinoa, carrots, peas and tomato sauce

 Seaweed, cucumber, quinoa, tomato paste and soy sauce on the seaweed and cucumber.

 Black beans, veggies and taco shell.

Brown rice, butter beans and corn with teriyaki sauce.

Avo and Car Sushi

I love sushi. I learned to like sushi when moving to San Francisco, where I got a lot of Asian friends that all love sushi. First I thought it was weird tasting, but I learned to love it and now I truly love it!! Give things a few tries before you brush them off.

This is a veggie sushi roll. You only need 4 ingredients.  Sushi rolls are easy to make and fills you up. Seaweed is also very good for your body. It's full of minerals, vitamins and iron. 

You need:

-       Two nori papers / sushi sheets

-       2 small carrots

-       1 avocado

-       Soy sauce

-       Sushi mat

Directions:

1.     Use a cheese grater on the carrots

2.     Put the Nori paper on a sushi mat. Scoop avocado on top, lay it by the edge of the paper but be sure to leave a border. Fill about half of the Nori paper with avocado.

3.     Put the cut carrots on top of where you laid the avocado.

4.     Roll the sushi mat from the edge where you started laying you avocado till the Nori paper reaches the end of the paper where there are no veggies. Use a bit of water on your fingers to make the edge of the Nori paper stick together.

5.     Now you have a roll of sushi. Then cut it into slices. Eat with some soy sauce dipping.

I hope you enjoy! 

Veggie Burrito

This recipe is super easy to make. It’s one of my favorites and you can change the taste of it a lot by changing the beans you use and the sauce you use.

You Need:

-       Veggies (I used a wok bag of different veggies)

-       Beans (I used Garbanzo beans)

-       Teriyaki sauce

-       Tomato

-       Yellow Onion
- 1 Tortilla or 2 if your Hungry

Directions:

1.     Throw all the ingredients in a pan. Let it heat on medium heat. Let it heat for about 15 minutes.

2.     Cover with Teriyaki sauce.

3.     Heat your tortilla in the oven for some min.

4.     Fill the tortilla with the veggies and beans covered in Teriyaki Sauce, fold it and eat J

"Hamburger" :D

What’s for dinner today? Hamburger is what’s for dinner today.  If no one informed me that I was not eating a real hamburger I would not have noticed..that is how food can fool you if you use the right spice and accessories right.

                                                               Here is what you need:

-       One box black beans

-       Half an onion

-       1 tbs taco powder

-       1 tbs oregano spice

-       1/2 of a cup water
- 1 cup oatmeal
- 1/3 cup all purpose flour (can use more oatmeal instead or more onion)

Directions:

1.     Blend it all in a blender.

2.     When the mixture is smooth scoop some in a pan like a mini pancake.

3.     I fried it on low heat about 10 min on each side.  The texture gets a bit softer then normal burger, but if you put them in the stove for a while after you fried them or keep them longer in the pan they should get firmer. Also you can reheat them the next day.

 I eat mine with one slice of bread with ketchup, some avocado, lettuce and slices of tomato on top. It is so good!!!!!!! I do not miss meat at all.

* You can also use slices of lettuce as "bread". Then you use one lettuce under the burger and one on top

* I also sometimes put the burger in a tortilla wrap with lettuce and other stuff I think tastes good with burger. Depends on what I got in the fridge :p

Have a Good Weekend!

* I got about 9 burgers out of it :p Ill freeze half and put half in the fridge. 

Thin and Easy Pizza for One

This pizza is easy to make. It takes about 15 min and it taste amazing! Best thing is that it is for one. You know us single gals need pizza too.. without feeling like a pig cause we ate the whole damn pizza alone. Don’t worry this pizza is for you single fox.

You need:

-       1 Mushroom

-       ¼ of an onion

-       Some taco powder

-       Some tomato sauce

-       2 Whole Wheat Tortilla

Directions:

1.     Cut onion and mushroom into pieces.

2.     Fry them with about 2 tbs of taco powder and some water (about 4-6 tbs) Fry for about 15 min on medium heat.

3.     Take one tortilla and fill it with a layer of tomato sauce using a spoon.

4.     Put the second tortilla on top. The tomato sauce will work as ”glue” so you have yourself a thin pizza ”crust”. U can put the “crust” in the stove for about 5-7min and it will become hard.

I don’t have a stove so it works without a stove too. The two tortillas will be strong enough to hold the filling. If you do use a stove you can also try using one tortilla instead of two.

5.     Put some tomato sauce on top of the second tortilla and fill with onion and mushroom.

6.     Cut into piece and enjoy cause you are single and Foxy!

This pizza (picture above) I added tomato. I also used only one tortilla which I fried on low heat for 5 minutes on each side. It worked out good too. The crust became crunchy and jamjam :)

Yellow Pizza

I'm a big pizza fan. I decided to make one from what I have in my fridge. Turns out all the food I had was yellow. Anyhow the pizza turned out tasting great!

Pizza sauce ( I just used plain tomato paste)

Onion

Garlic

Pineapple 

Garbanzo beans

One pizza dough or finished pizza crust (since I don't have a stove

Olive Oil

Directions:

1. Put the sauce on the pizza. Put your stove to 428 F.

Let the pizza bake for 15 min.

2. Cut the Onion and garlic into pieces.

3. Place olive oil on your frying pan. Let the onion, garlic, beans and pineapple
