Mexican!

If I could eat mexican every night then i would, especially vegan mexican. My recipe is probably not completely authentic but it is certainly delicious.


I'm going to give you my recipe for vegan nachos.


INGREDIENTS
* one pack of corn chips (i like to use the organic low salt ones)
* half a ripe avocado
* one fresh crunchy tomato
* a bit of fresh red capsicum chopped into about 1cm pieces
* three or four mushrooms chopped up
* one cup of TVP (veggie mince, you just add boiling water to it and let it sit for a couple of minutes and then drain)
* one small tin of 4 beans mix (rinse them)
* half an onion
* one clove of garlic minced in that utensil that squashes them, or you can just chop it up really small if you don't have one, or just use good ol minced garlic from the jar.
* some tomato paste (its really up to you how much you like to use, i just mix it with salsa so it covers all the beans and mince)
* fresh corn kernals
* hot tomato salsa
* fresh chili or flakes
* grated soy cheese


METHOD
So basically you prepare some corn chips on a plate, chop up avocado, tomato, capsicum, mushrooms, onion, grate the cheese.
boil the kettle and add boiling water to TVP in a bowl, let to sit for a couple of minutes then drain.
fry up the onion until transparent, add the minced garlic, mushrooms, and 4 beans mix (after rinsing them of course)
add as much salsa and tomato paste as you like and add the TVP, mix in chili, coriander and any other herbs or spices you like, let it all simmer for about 5 or so minutes and scoop it onto your corn chips.
Add a handful of avocado, tomato, capsicum and cheese and put on top of mince, add a bit more salsa and dig in.

remember to keep some chips spare to eat up all the soggy ones with.


this will prob make more than one nights worth so you can just make it into a dip or just have nachos everyday for about 4 days. and you ahve probably noticed that i didnt melt the cheese in the microwave and that it because i don't have one and everything tastes better fresh.

cheers!
