Heya guys, just wondering if anyone has any really great/easy/cheap/low fat recipes that don't include animal products? I'm starting a vegan diet in October but am a terrible cook, and I'll be living alone then, so I'll need to get in some vegan cooking practice before then!

I'll eat just about anything, but if anyone has a great bean burger recipe I'd love to hear it.

    I have been vegan for almost two years. :^) I love this website http://fatfreevegan.com/ and have made quite a few things from it. I have also been making recipes from vegetariantimes.com and from my VegNews magazine.

    ‎1/4 cup nutritional yeast, 1/4 cup flour, tsp paprika, tsp salt, dash garlic powder, whisk together with 1 cup water in small pot until smooth, heat on medium until it gets thicker (whisk often to keep smooth or it will become lumpy quick).... bring heat to simmer or take it off completely and add 2 Tbsp of vegan butter. Whisk that till butter melts and is smooth. You can also add 1 cup or so of salsa if desired. Also, you can replace water with unsweetened soymilk to make it a little more creamy.

    This is a recipe for vegan cheese dip. You can also thin it out a little and use it as salad dressing.

    My Favorite Vegan chef right now is Colleen Patrick Goudrea! Her EASY Garlic Green soup is a staple in my house and everyone loves is (v's and non v's alike)! You can youtube it and it will come right up!

    I am also a fan of Vegetarian Times and anything from the Vegan with a Vengeance book by Isa Chandra Moskowitz! Between her book, Colleen's book , "The Vegan Table" and Vegetarian Times.com I have MORE than enough vegan recipes.

    An MFP friend of mine just recently shared this site: (for vegan desserts)

    www.ChocolateCoveredKatie.com

    I've tried several of her things already and have been pretty pleased. I do tweak a lot. I'm sure you can find something on her site that you enjoy :) HTH!!

    This is amazing. You can skip the salsa and add a little malt vinegar for a more cheddar-y flavor for broccoli or potatoes.

    You should buy "Appetite For Reduction" by Isa Chandra. It is all vegan recipes that are low fat/ healthy, plus there is a nutrtion guide with each recipe. I have made at least 15 recipes and have loved them all! I'm gonna eat the Sweet Chili Lime Tofu tonight!
