Potatoes, Cabbage, Carrots, and Onions with Un-Cheese Sauce
(http://www.all-creatures.org)
This recipe will make enough to serve 4-6 people as a main dish,
or 8-12 people as a side dish.
It can be cooked in either a microwave oven on "high" in about 30
minutes, or in a conventional oven at 350 degrees F in about an
hour.
Ingredients:
1 Cabbage, green, small to medium size
4 Carrots, medium size
2-3 lbs. Potatoes
2 Onions, medium size
3-4 cups White Beans, canned or cooked
1/4 cup Lemon Juice
3/4 to 1 cup Nutritional Yeast, flake
Cayenne Pepper or Hot Sauce (to taste)
a few drops Smoke Flavor (optional)
Preparation:
- If you are not using canned beans (2 - 15-oz. cans), we suggest
that you cook the beans (1 lb.) the day before, and store them in
the refrigerator, in a crock pot over night, or in a pot on the
stove top early in the morning.
- Begin by washing and cleaning the cabbage, and washing and
peeling the potatoes, carrots, and onions. Slice them all into
bite-sized pieces, place them into a large baking dish mounding the
veggies up above the rim of the baking dish (adjust the quantities
to fill the baking dish), and cook covered until the veggies are
tender. To ensure uniform cooking, mix every 5 minutes when cooking
in a microwave oven, or every 10 minutes when cooking in a
conventional oven.
- While the potatoes, cabbage, carrots, and onions are cooking,
prepare the un-cheese sauce by placing the drained white beans in
the container of a high speed blender. Add the lemon juice,
nutritional yeast, cayenne pepper or hot sauce (if desired), and
smoke flavor (if desired), cover the container, and run the blender
at high speed until the ingredients are creamy smooth (use the
tamper as necessary).
- When the potatoes, cabbage, carrots and onions are cooked, add
the un-cheese sauce, mix well, and cook for another 5 minutes
uncovered in the microwave oven, or 10 minutes in a conventional
oven.
- As a main meal, serve and enjoy with a large tossed salad, or
serve as a side dish. Leftovers can be stored in covered baking
dish, or in another covered container in the refrigerator for a few
days.
