Come join the Vegan Home Cooks!

Participation is really easy, just take a picture of what you cooked today and post it, no recipes needed.


This is a public forum for a discord server of friends who are all vegans and cook at home for their families.

We are here to share some inspiration, to see what others are doing and to stay engaged in something that is both our hobby and a required task.

This forum is not a "food porn" community, a recipe book or a place to teach you how to cook. It is a place for people who already cook to meet other people like themselves and provide on topic support and conversation as much as long distance friends on the internet can do. We are doing show and tell about what we made and we don't care about its instagram worthiness.

Veganism isn’t a diet but I have to eat every day. This is for the vegan home cooks. Anything non vegan will be deleted.


Rules

1. Be Vegan.

If it is not vegan it doesn’t belong here… or anywhere.

2. Post home cooking.

No restaurant or fast food. This is what every other vegan space is about and we don’t want to promote any large or small business tyrants.

3. Join the Discord

We’re an active community of vegan home cooks that like to talk about what we are cooking today.

4. Do not make any rude comments or digs at anyone’s food, cooking style, specific diet, restrictions or technique.

While we are all cooks, we all have different requirements and we’re not asking for help, we are doing show and tell.

5. Do not use trademarked brands

Use generic names. We’re cooking with tvp not whatever business brands it and we’re not trying to turn comrades into billboards. No plant-based vegan-pandering capitalist crap like Impossible, Beyond, Dairy-company owned “vegan” cheese.

6. Do not ask for a recipe without otherwise engaging the OP (No posts that are just “recipe?”)

We are not food bloggers. Sometimes we're excited to share and will tell you the recipes we used but this isn't required. Instead try doing your own research and tell us what you learned and we can talk about it.

7. Careful with making unasked for suggestions.

Sometimes we like to hear suggestions but you should be nice about it and know the person you are making suggestions to. We are in the discord and you can get to know us that way. If you are just a visitor from the fediverse, this isn’t the place for you to start telling other people what to do.

8. Grown Ups Only.

Cooking for our kids is great, Acting like one is not. While this isn't a community for adult material we expect everyone who participates to be an adult and act like one. Please follow the Anarchists Code of Conduct. No profane usernames allowed.

Do you struggle with breakfast? Big same.

Please meet my default breakfast food. It's whole food plant based, largely shelf stable and very easy to prepare and consume. I always bring this with me when I travel (minus the fruit/jam) so that I have something I can prepare anywhere with hot water. It really helps reduce my dependance on packaged snacks and keeps my gut happy and more hydrated than it would be if I was eating only granola bars.

It can knock off a bunch of items on the "daily dozen" of healthful eating depending on how you make it (flax, 1 serving nuts/seeds, 1 serving whole grains, 1 serving berries).

It's:

  • 1/4 cup quick oats
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 3 tbsp hemp hearts
  • 1 tbsp ground flax (if I remember to have grind some not at 6 am when I am making this...)
  • some quantity of frozen veg or if that isn't going to work for you today, why not a spoon of jam?

Throw that all in a jar, and pour some boiling water on it.

Give it a bit of a stir and wait, and it becomes P L U M P

I make this while I make my coffee in the morning and toss it in my bag to take to work. Depending on your preference and how much water you use, it's basically a beverage. I don't even bother with a spoon tbh.
