Morphing Through Time

Welcome to Global Vegan Kitchen Blog! This blog was formerly Delicious Plant-Based Vegan but I decided to change it. After that I changed to Eat the Rainbow so colorful as my cooking... that's the way I like to eat. Lately, I thought the best title should be Global Vegan Kitchen 'cause I cook dishes from several cuisines. I love and enjoy cooking for my family. My vegan journey started around 30 years ago when I became a vegetarian. With the course of the years, I changed my lifestyle improving ingredients and avoiding animal products from the vegetarian diet to a vegan one. Actually, I can call it a vegan lifestyle, which also has a connotation or philosophy. This includes environment care and animal rights. When my blog was named Delicious Plant-Based Vegan I wanted to learn a bout the difference between the word Plant-Based, which differs a little bit with vegan, made me think about what I eat and decided to change my Delicious Vegan blog

Veggie antipasto

Antipasto (in Italian language means before the main dish) is an appetizer served before primo piatto, secondo piatto y dolce and could be cold. It is usually served with cured meats, pickles, olives, marinated veggies, and a variety of cheeses. My version doesn't have meats or cow's milk cheeses. So I used meat replacements (veggie ham and salami) and nut cheeses along with marinated artichokes, roasted peppers, Kalamata olives, Julienne cut sun-dried tomatoes, over lettuce and grape tomatoes.

The Sudra

What's for dinner? Healthy gnocchi

What's for dinner? Healthy gnocchi As Italian, we usually say Pasta e Basta! meaning nothing else but pasta! But this could be fattening if you have white pasta with no nutrients. Over the years, I learned how to make it in a healthy way using whole-wheat flour and low fat items instead. I decided to make a healthy dish called "gnocchi" using whole-wheat flour and spinach. I haven't measure the ingredients exactly but used about: 1/2 cup spinach, steamed, drained and chopped 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour to start and more for kneading 1 flax-egg pepper to taste Mix all ingredients forming a smooth ball. Add more flour if necessary. Gnocchi ball Knead the ball adding more flour, cut it in smaller ones, and form long rolls kneading them with your fingertips.
