Vegan Cholent is inspired by the traditional Jewish stew eaten for lunch on the Sabbath. “Shabbat stews were developed over the centuries to conform with Jewish laws that prohibit cooking on the Sabbath.” [1] While traditionally this dish contained meat, potatoes, and beans and is cooked slowly over a long period of time, this plant-based version uses tempeh and lentils and can be made in about 45 minutes. You may substitute the tempeh for textured vegetable protein or seitan and you may also add lima or butter beans to thicken up the stew.
Ingredients
Time: 45-50 minutes Serves: 6-8
Vegan Cholent
5-6 small red potatoes, sliced
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
1-2 large carrots, diced
1-2 celery stalked, diced
1/2 cup green or French lentils
1 package tempeh, cubed
1 can red kidney beans, drained & rinsed
8 oz. tomato sauce
3 Heaping Tbs tomato paste
10 oz. diced tomatoes
3 1/2 cups vegetable broth
1 Tbs fennel seed
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried marjoram
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 bay leaves
Olive oil
Directions
Begin by preparing your vegetables, separating the potatoes and tempeh from the carrot and celery.
In a large stock pot, set heat to medium high. Once hot, add a generous tablespoon of olive oil, just enough to evenly coat the bottom of the pan.
When the oil is hot and begins to steam slightly, add the carrot and celery, cooking together for about 7 minutes.
Then, add the potatoes and tempeh and stir together for another 5 minutes.
Add in the seasoning and lentils, stirring together for 1 minute.
Then add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, and diced tomatoes and finally the vegetable broth, beans, and bay leaves.
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 30-45 minutes or until the potatoes have softened.
Taste and adjust seasoning as desired, serve and enjoy!

Sweet Potato White Bean Soup, a creamy blended soup that is rich in protein and nutrition. This soup is delicious and creamy with or without coconut milk or cream. We added roasted brussels sprouts as an added topping, but this soup will also go well with croutons or pepitas on top!
Ingredients
Sweet Potato White Bean Soup
2 large sweet potatos, sliced
1 can cannelini beans, drained & rinsed
1 can great northern beans, drained & rinsed (kept separate from cannelini)
1/2 yellow onion, diced
2-3 garlic cloves, peeled
4 cups vegetable broth (or 3 cups broth & 1 cup coconut milk or heavy cream)
1 Tbs olive oil
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp ground thyme
1/2 tsp black pepper
Dash of red pepper flakes
Optional toppings: chopped green onions, pepper flakes, nutritional yeast
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
Place the sliced sweet potato on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake for about 20-30 minutes, flipping halfway through until both sides are lightly roasted and sweet potato is softened.
Add in the cannelini beans (keep other beans separate), and the seasoning.
Stir together and add the vegetable broth, bringing to a simmer.
Once the sweet potato is cooked, add to the soup.
After the soup has simmered for about 10 minutes, transfer to a blender or use an immersion blender and mix until the soup is creamy. Add more liquid if desired for preferred texture and consistency.
Return the soup to the stove, add in the remaining beans, taste and adjust seasoning. Simmer the soup on low for another 5-10 minutes.
Remove from heat, serve with desired toppings, and enjoy!
