Vegeterian Tips: When people think of Japanese food, they think of sushi, however sushi doesn t always have to be raw fish. Cucumber rolls are available on many menus, and if there is a sushi bar available, you can ask to try different types of vegetarian rolls, such as cucumber, cream cheese, and avocado, or perhaps vegetarian tempura rolls.
Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1-2 stalks celery, chopped
- 2-3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1-2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cans red beans drained
- 1 good shake of red pepper flakes
- vegan seasoning salt for taste (three shakes)
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 shakes of dried oregano leaves
- 1 can of water
- pile of cooked rice
Directions:
Heat large skillet on medium heat until
hot. Melt oil/vegan butter in skillet.
Add all veggies except garlic. Stir
occasionally. Add garlic about 5 minutes
later, when the onion is translucent (since
garlic burns so easily and turns bitter).
One minute later add the beans and rest of
the ingredients except for rice. Bring to
a boil, then lower heat to medium-low to
simmer, loosely covered, for about 30 minutes,
stirring occasionally. You want to lose some
of the liquid, while softening the beans and
blending the flavors. Add 1/2 can more water if
beans start to dry out. Add one more little
shake of oregano during the last minute.
Discard bay leaf.
Serve over rice.
