Introduction Life s fast pace can leave anyone with no time to cook, let alone time to shop for all the ingredients. For vegans, the challenge is typically compounded by the extra weekly trek (or two) to the health food store, along with the daily grind of prepping countless fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes. With the help of Supermarket Vegan, followers of a plant-based diet will never again have to compromise health and nutrition when they re on the run. This cookbook offers healthful dishes free of meat, eggs, and dairy, using simple, straightforward ingredients that require a minimal amount of preparation, all with just a quick trip to your local grocery store no specialty items from the health food store, co-op, or whole foods market necessary. Indeed, as more and more people are turning toward a healthier diet and lifestyle, an increasing number of conventional supermarkets are stocking a treasure trove of vegan-friendly convenience items, such as precut and washed fresh fruits and vegetables; bagged salads and slaws; exotic frozen fruits and vegetables, such as mango and edamame beans; whole wheat pastas and Asian noodles, such as cellophane, rice, soba, and somen noodles; quick-cooking grains, such as bulgur, couscous, polenta, and quinoa; whole wheat pitas, wraps, and pizza crusts; a wide assortment of canned beans and lentils; prepared salsas and hummus; and an extensive array of international sauces, chutneys, olives, and other condiments. By finding new and innovative ways to use these products, this book presents you with many memorable recipes, from appetizers to desserts, all made with real food. No meat analogs, such as seitan, tempeh, and textured vegetable protein (TVP), or egg and dairy substitutes are needed. Moreover, most recipes are ready in forty-five minutes (or less), require ten ingredients (or less), and are easy on the budget to boot. Healthy eating is more important than ever when you re trying to keep up with a hectic schedule. When real-life people become overwhelmed and overly busy, it s all too easy to slip into poor eating habits. As a result, we feel depleted and run down, bereft of the precious time and vital energy we need to pursue our everyday activities and ultimate purpose in life. Find some time to incorporate a few of Supermarket Vegan s real-deal recipes into your daily cooking routine, and find more time for the rest of your life. GLOSSARY OF INGREDIENTS Barley A hardy, ancient grain used in soups, stews, cereals, breads, and beer. The most common variety found in conventional supermarkets is pearl barley, which has had the bran removed and has been steamed and polished.
