Default GCM Vegan Iron Chef Info Thread

This thread is for information only. Please post recipes in the challenge threads listed at the bottom of this OP.

I mentioned this about a year ago before my life exploded. So, here are the rules.

Make a vegan (or you can do a lacto-ovo as long as it's not huge into dairy/egg) meal using the ingredient in the title of the thread and post the recipe (and a picture, if you want). Give a small review and how many stars (out of five)...

Lurkers are fine, comments are fine....My goal is to have a resource for someone who does a search for different basic ingredients and be able to find a plethora of vegan/vegetarian recipes for those ingredients. I'm looking for recipes that showpiece the ingredient or theme.

I will start a new challenge every few days or weeks. In the OP, there will be information about the ingredient and I will give a clue for you to prepare for the next challenge.

#1 Quinoa
#2 Pumpkin

'cause I'm a snob and I am vegetarian and was hoping for more recipes.

I had actually mentioned it in the veg forum a year ago and then just remembered today. I ran one back in 2004 in a veg forum and it was a huge success.

You can still make vegetarian recipes Or you can convert to the light side.

I'll change it to reflect that it's veggie. You can start a carnivore one if you'd like

I actually don't eat much meat, but I'm required to for my body to function properly (long story) so it's not for lack of wanting to. Is there a creme brulee-tarian?

Not that I've looked for. But there's vegan everything so I'm sure it exists.

I'll be a showoff and submit my own recipe...I made this one up. Totally proud of myself; it rocks.

Ashley's Fantastic Black Bean & Quinoa Soup

1.5 lbs canned or soaked & cooked black beans
1 TB powdered roasted chipotle pepper (or to taste)
2/3 cup quinoa, uncooked
1/2 tsp cumin
1tsp onion powder (you could use 1/3 cup diced onion, I just have a picky eater )
1-2 large cloves of crushed garlic
1 finely diced red bell pepper
3 TB blackstrap molasses (you could sub honey or maple syrup, I just like the iron content of the molasses)
1tsp cinnamon
salt to taste

suggested garnishes and sides:
sour cream (vegan or regular)
diced fresh tomatoes
chives or thinly sliced green onions
sliced avocadoes (2-3 usually work for our family of 5...yes, the baby EATS)
Blue cornbread, toasted pita or tortilla chips

Put everything but cinnamon in pot, cover until water is 2" or so above the beans. Simmer with lid on at med-high, stirring occasionally and checking for water. Add cinnamon last (it gets bitter if you cook it for too long), then garnish bowls with sour cream, avocados and tomatoes.

Mmmmmm! Everyone in the family loves it, and it packs a mongo-load of protein and iron, and it's great for the immune system, too. I've had guests rave over it, so it's a good "company" veg/vegan meal.

How about roasted pumpkin black bean enchiladas.

Roast the pumpkin in cubes with sea salt and any Mexican seasonings, mix with black beans and roll in corn tortillas, cover with enchilada sauce and bake, top with avocado and salsa.
Make spanish rice or quinoa to use the last challenge.
