▶️ VEGETABLE SOUP RECIPE INGREDIENTS:

2 to 3 Tablespoon Olive oil
200g / 1+1/2 Cup Onion – chopped
1/2 Tablespoon Ginger – finely chopped – 1/2 Inch ginger
1+1/2 Tablespoon Garlic – finely chopped – 4 to 5 garlic cloves
500g Cauliflower – cup into florets – 4 to 5 heaping cups approx.
400g Sweet Potato – chopped into cubes – 3 heaping cups approx.
200g / 1+1/4 Cup approx. Tomatoes – chopped
900ml / 4 Cups Vegetable Broth (low sodium)
475ml / 2 Cups Water
Salt to taste (I have added total 1+1/4 Teaspoon of pink Himalayan salt)

Spice Mix:
1/2 Teaspoon Turmeric
1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
1 Teaspoon Ground Coriander
1/4 Teaspoon Garam Masala
1/4 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper (optional)
1/3 Cup / 75ml Water

Garnish:
Lemon Juice (I have added 1/2 tablespoon)
Ground Black Pepper (I have added 1/2 teaspoon)
Drizzle of olive oil (I have added 1 tablespoon of organic cold pressed olive oil)

▶️ METHOD:

Start by preparing the spice mix. To a bowl add the turmeric, cumin, coriander, garam masala, Cinnamon, cayenne pepper, water and mix well until it forms a slurry. Set aside.

To a heated pot add olive oil, onion, 1/4 teaspoon salt and fry on medium heat until the onion starts to brown. Adding salt to onion will release it’s moisture and will help it cook/caramelize faster, so please don’t skip this step.
Then add the chopped ginger and garlic and fry for about 1 minute or until fragrant. Now reduce the heat and add the spic mix and mix well. Continue to cook until all the moisture is evaporated and it forms a thick paste. Then add the cauliflower, sweet potato, tomato, vegetable broth, water, salt and mix everything thoroughly. Cover the lid and bring it to a boil. Once it starts to boil reduce the heat to medium low and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the sweet potato is cook through. Turn off the heat and let it cool down before blending.

Now blend it into a smooth puree. Turn on the stove and bring the soup to a boil and cook for about 1 minute or so. This will prevent the pulp and water from separating and will get you a better consistency and texture. Turn off the heat and add the lemon juice, drizzle of olive oil and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Mix well and cover the lid and let it rest for 4 to 5 minutes before serving for the flavours to blend. Serve hot with some crusty whole grain bread.

If the soup gets too thick then thin it out with some boiling water DO NOT ADD COLD WATER to it otherwise it will ruin the taste.

▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:

???? Adding salt to onion will release it’s moisture and will help it cook/caramelize faster, so please don’t skip this step
???? Reduce the heat before adding the spice mix, this will prevent it from burning – burnt spices will make the dish bitter
???? The garnish is what completes the dish so please do not skip any of the ingredients
???? Every stove is different, so if needed adjust the cooking time and the heat of your stove accordingly
???? If the soup gets too thick then thin it out with some boiling water DO NOT ADD COLD WATER to it otherwise it will ruin the taste.

Roasted Eggplant and Beans Nourish Bowl | Easy Vegetarian and Vegan Meals. This vegetarian salad recipe will get you excited to eat greens and beans. Easy salad recipes for vegetarian and vegan meals and meal prep. This beans and roasted eggplant recipe with peppers with an easy salad dressing is one of the best salads I have made. A healthy bean salad recipe for weight loss. Check out my other vegetarian and vegan recipes!

???? Let me know if you enjoyed my healthy vegan salad recipe

▶️ SALAD RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (3 to 4 servings)

???? To roast the Eggplant and Red Bell pepper:
Olive oil
1 large Eggplant / Aubergine (490g approx. including skin)
1 large Red Bell Pepper (300g approx. including seeds/core)
Aluminum foil to cover the roasted vegetables

✅ ???? Ingredients:
1+1/3 Cup / 300g ROASTED Eggplant (VERY FINELY CHOPPED INTO A MASH)
3/4 Cup / 140g ROASTED Red Bell Pepper (VERY FINELY CHOPPED ALMOST INTO A MASH)
2 Cups / 1 can (540ml can) COOKED White Kidney Beans / Cannellini Beans
1/2 cup / 75g Carrots finely chopped
1/2 cup / 75g Celery finely chopped
1/3 cup / 50g Red Onion finely chopped
1/2 cup / 25g Parsley finely chopped

???? Salad Dressing:
3+1/2 Tablespoons Lemon juice OR TO TASTE
1+1/2 Tablespoon Maple Syrup OR TO TASTE
2 Tablespoon Olive Oil (I have used organic cold pressed olive oil)
1 Teaspoon minced Garlic
1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
Salt to taste (I added 1+1/4 Teaspoon pink Himalayan salt)
1/4 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper (OPTIONAL)

▶️ METHOD:

Pre-heat the oven to 400 F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Cut the eggplant in half. Score it in a crosshatch diamond pattern about 1 inch deep. Brush with olive oil. Cut the red bell pepper in half and remove the seeds/core, brush with olive oil. PLACE BOTH THE EGGPLANT AND PEPPER FACE DOWN on the baking tray.

✅???? NOTE: IT’S REALLY IMPORTANT THAT YOU PUT IT FACE DOWN ON THE BAKING TRAY. This will trap the steam and help it bake properly.

Bake in a pre-heated oven at 400 F for about 35 minutes or until the vegetables are nicely roasted and soft. Then remove from the oven place it on a cooling rack. Let it cool down.
✅???? MAKE SURE TO COVER IT, THIS WILL LOOSEN THE SKIN of the vegetables and make it easy to peel the skin.

Drain the cooked beans and rinse it with water. Let the beans sit in a strainer until all the water is drained. WE DO NOT WANT SOGGY BEANS here.

To a small bowl, add lemon juice, maple syrup, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, ground cumin, black pepper, cayenne pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined. Set it aside.

By now the roasted eggplant and pepper would have cooled off. So uncover and peel the skin the bell pepper and CHOP IT VERY FINELY ALMOST INTO A MASH. Scoop the pulp of the roasted eggplant and discard the skin, CHOP IT VERY FINELY BY RUNNING THE KNIFE SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL IT TURNS INTO A MASH.

✅???? IT’S VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU FINELY CHOP THE ROASTED EGGPLANT AND PEPPER ALMOST INTO A MASH – to make this dish creamy and it becomes a part of the dressing.

Transfer the roasted eggplant and pepper to a large bowl. Add the cooked kidney beans (cannellini beans), chopped carrot, celery, red onion and parsley. Add the dressing and mix thoroughly.

Cover the bowl and CHILL IN THE REFRIGERATOR FOR 2 HOURS, TO ALLOW THE BEANS TO ABSORB THE DRESSING. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP.

Once chilled, it’s ready to serve. This is a very versatile salad recipe, serve with pita, in a lettuce wrap, with chips and can also be eaten with steamed rice. It stores well in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days (in an airtight container).

▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:

???? After brushing the raw eggplant and pepper with olive oil, MAKE SURE TO PLACE IT FACE DOWN ON THE BAKING TRAY. This will trap the steam and help it bake properly

???? Drain the cooked beans and rinse it with water. Let the beans sit in a strainer until all the water is drained. WE DO NOT WANT SOGGY BEANS

???? IT’S VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU FINELY CHOP THE ROASTED EGGPLANT AND PEPPER ALMOST INTO A MASH – to make this dish creamy and it becomes a part of the dressing

???? Let me know in the comments if you enjoyed my healthy vegan rice recipe.

▶️ VEGETABLE RICE RECIPE INGREDIENTS: (3 servings approx.)

1 cup / 200g White basmati rice (thoroughly washed & then soaked in water for 30 minutes and then strained)
2 Tablespoon cooking oil
1 to 2 Bay leaves
1/4 to 1/2 Teaspoon Cumin Seeds (I have added 1/2 Teaspoon of cumin)
100g / 3/4 cup / Onion – finely chopped
1/2 Tablespoon Garlic – finely chopped
1/2 Tablespoon Ginger – finely chopped
70g / 1/2 cup Carrots – Cut in to small cubes
70g / 1/2 cup Green Beans – Cut in to 1/2 inch long pieces
70g / 1/2 cup Frozen Green Peas
1/2 teaspoon Garam masala
Salt to taste (I have added total 3/4 Teaspoon of pink Himalayan Salt)
1+1/2 cup / 350ml Water
1/3 cup / 50g Toasted cashew nuts

▶️ METHOD:

Thoroughly wash the rice a few times until the water runs clear. This will get rid of any impurities/gunk and will give a much better/clean taste. Then soak the rice in water for 30 minutes. Then drain the water from the rice and leave it to sit in the strainer to drain any excess water, until ready to use.

To a heated pan cooking oil, add bay leaves and cumin seeds. Fry for just a few seconds. BE CAREFUL NOT TO BURN THE CUMIN SEEDS. Right away add the chopped onion, 1/4 teaspoon of salt and fry on medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes or until the onions are soft. Adding salt to the onion will release it’s moisture and help it cook faster, so please don’t skip it. Add the finely chopped ginger, garlic and fry on medium to medium-low heat for about 1 minutes. Now add the chopped carrots and green beans. Fry the vegetables on medium heat for about 1 minute. Then add the soaked and strained basmati rice, garam masala, salt and fry for another 30 seconds to a minute. Add the water and frozen green peas. Bring the water to a vigorous boil. Once the water starts to boil, then cover the lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook on low heat for about 10 to 12 minutes or until the rice is cooked.

Once the rice is cooked, uncover the pan. Cook uncovered for just a few seconds to get rid of any excess moisture. Turn off the heat. Add the roasted cashews and mix it VERY GENTLY to prevent the the rice grains from breaking. DO NOT OVER MIX THE RICE OTHERWISE IT WILL TURN MUSHY.

Serve hot with your favourite curry. This makes 3 SERVINGS.

▶️ IMPORTANT TIPS:

???? Thoroughly wash the rice until water runs clear, this will get rid of any impurities/gunk and will give a much better/clean taste

???? Use a Wider Cooking Pan to make this dish. This will cook the rice evenly and prevent it from getting mushy

???? Adding salt to onion will release it’s moisture and will help it cooks faster, so please don’t skip this step

???? After adding the cashews – mix the rice very carefully and gently to prevent the rice grains from breaking. DO NOT OVER MIX IT at this time because the rice grains are very soft and can turn into mush
