50 Incredible Vegetarian/Vegan Recipes!

Oct 5, 2010 | Views: 888

Dear Friends,

Here are 48 videos and four written recipes for your vegan/vegetarian palates. I have done this research, put effort into all of this to help give you a kick-start to start your compassion diet.

People often like to say meatless foods have no taste, but that is absolutely not true. Here are delicious recipes for you to try and incorporate into your routine. They are not hard to learn and cook. They just need a little practice. Practice makes perfect like anything you are good at….

YOUR CHOICE OF FOODS SHOULD ARISE FROM COMPASSION ALSO.

Excuses of food that is vegan/vegetarian are not delicious are just weak justifications for our ignoring the slaughter of animals who are mostly likely abused before they are eaten also. Please let’s stop eating animals. Their sufferings are a direct result of us not going vegetarian. We should stop saying it’s hard.

What’s the point on one hand you attend teachings on compassion, recite sacred mantras and dedicate your merits that all sentient beings do not suffer when your meals consisted of slaughtered animals?? Doesn’t make sense at all does it?

Families/friends cannot pressure you to eat meat at gatherings as they have to respect your diet. Families/friends have tried to get you to do many other things that you ignored in the past, so why be selective now?

Regarding becoming weak when you eat vegetarian diet is also not true, it is learning how to get the right nutrition/proteins by mixing and matching. Eating too much meat can create serious conditions such as gout also. Meat is very dangerous. Dangerous to your body and dangerous to your karma. Dangerous for your clear conscience.

Watch the videos below and start your diet. Your diet and what you put into your mouth SHOULD ARISE FROM COMPASSION ALSO. Be an example of spirituality by what you eat. You can start that right now. Don’t talk love, compassion, heal the world, attainments, meditation when you eat/desire/crave for meat using sad excuses that everyone can see through.

Easy equation, you eat meat=animals need to be savagely butchered.

I have posted many videos on how animals are treated before they are butchered and how they are butchered under this same category. Take a look. If you can’t watch, then don’t eat meat. If you can watch, then that is all the reason to stop eating their bodies. Would you like others to eat, savour, enjoy and chew on your body?? You couldn’t even stand the prick of a needle, let alone, being chopped up and eaten. Do onto others as you would they do to you.

Please learn vegetarian/vegan cooking… I want to help your health, your lifestyle, our planet and animals. Be kind to yourself. Be nice to your body. Be nice to the bodies of all animals. Do not let suffering continue. It is in your hands.

Om Mani Peme Hung.

The videos are wonderful; showing us how to cook delicious, natural, nourishing foods. If you come across other videos I did not post or recipes, put it up in the comments section and perhaps I will include here. Please give me good news, that you will use these recipes and start today and from now on.

Much love, care and begging you to be kind,

Tsem Tulku

(48) Vegetarian Recipe – Indian – Whole Green Mung Daal

*****

Tasty Vegan Potato Hash

This makes for a scrumptious vegan breakfast or brunch.

•2 Tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
•1 pound organic frozen hash browns
•3-5 scallions, minced
•6 ounces tempeh bacon, cut into 1/2″ pieces
•2 Tablespoons capers
•1/4 – 1/2 cup cashew sour cream (*see easy recipe below), or use store-bought vegan sour cream
•1 Tablespoon whole-grain Dijon mustard
•Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1. Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add frozen hash browns and scallions and saute over a medium flame, covered, until the potatoes begin to brown on the bottom. Flip and brown again.

2. Meanwhile, combine all remaining ingredients in a medium bowl. Add the sour cream mixture to the browned hash browns and cook just long enough to heat, about 3 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.

Serves: 2-3

* Cashew Sour Cream…

Combine in a blender and process until smooth:

•1 cup cashews
•1 Tbsp. miso
•1-2 Tbsp. lemon juice, or to taste
•1-2 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar, or to taste
•1 tsp. sea salt
•fresh water, to desired consistency (add slowly!!)

Variations:

•Add crumbled and pre-steamed tempeh
•Try grated sweet potatoes — or a mix of both!

VegYum Mac & Cheeze
Serves 3ish

8-10 Oz Whole Wheat Rotini
2 Cups Steamed Broccoli Florets
2 Pieces of Bread, toasted and ground to breadcrumbs

1 Cup Peeled, Finely Chopped Potatoes
1/4 Cup Peeled, Finely Chopped Carrots
1 Cup Water

1/3 Cup Raw Cashews
1 Tbs Miso (any kind, I like red)
1 Tbs Tahini
1 Tbs Lemon Juice (sub: 2 tsp White Wine Vinegar)
1/2 tsp Dijon Mustard
1/3 Cup Earth Balance Margarine
1/3 Cup Nutritional Yeast
1 to 1 1/2 tsp Salt
Black Pepper to taste
Paprika for sprinkling

Preheat oven to 350º

Heat a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Meanwhile, steam broccoli and set aside. Can use my rice cooker. Simply put the florets in the cooker with 2-3 Tbs of hot water and turn the cooker on. Broccoli will be bright green and tender-crisp when done. Don’t forget about it in there–it’ll finish cooking before the rice cooker clicks off, so if you forget about it, you’ll overcook your broccoli. Mine takes less than 10 minutes to cook.

Make sure the carrots and potatoes are chopped very small; this will reduce the cooking time greatly. Place the chopped potatoes and carrots in small sauce pan that has a lid. Add the 1 cup of water. Boil covered until tender, 10-15 minutes.

While the potatoes and carrots are cooking, add the remaining ingredients to the blender (cashew, miso, lemon juice, mustard, earth balance, nut. yeast, salt and pepper). Once potatoes and carrots are done cooking, add them and their cooking water to the blender as well. Blend until VERY smooth. If needed, add soymilk or water 1 Tbs at a time to thin. Taste for seasoning.

Toast the bread and process into crumbs.

Toss the cooked pasta and broccoli with the sauce. Place in a casserole dish and top with breadcrumbs, black pepper, and paprika.

Bake for 25 minute at 350º F until browned and bubbly. Serve.



Low Calorie Vegan Snacks
Hi could you give any guidance on low fat snacks. I love grazing but do not have a large budget. I actually want to lose weight.

A question that I often am asked is for some low-calorie Vegan snack ideas. While it may be easier to cut back on calories as a vegan, we are still guided by this basic formula – gaining or losing weight is eating above or below your daily maintenance caloric intake – the amount of calories you need per day to maintain your current weight.


Losing Weight

1 Pound = Around 3500 Calories. This means that to lose 1 pound a week, you would need to eat 500 calories less than your maintenance calories. This works as a general rule, but as always there is more to it – A Calorie is not just a calorie.

Here are some snacks that I enjoy that help with my cravings:

  • 1/4 cup hummus + 1/2 of a Pita bread pocket = ~150 calories
  • 14 Baby Carrots = ~35 calories
  • Celery + 3/4 oz of peanut butter = ~130 calories
  • Silk Soy yogurt = ~ 150 calories
  • 1 Cup Soup = ~125 calories
  • 6 Dried Apple Rings = ~100 Calories
  • 3 Cups Air-popped Pop Corn = ~ 93 calories
  • 2 Cups Concord Grapes = ~120 calories
  • 2 Cups Strawberries = ~100 calories
  • 2 Cups Diced Watermelon = ~100 calories
  • 3 Plums = ~100 calories
  • 3 Peaches = ~100 calories
  • 1 Vegan Boca Burger = ~70 calories
  • 1 Tofutti Cutie = 130 calories
  • 6 teaspoons brown sugar + 1 Apple cored, baked = ~140 calories

    • Other Low Calorie Options

    Look at the calories in different vegetables that you really enjoy (Like a Red Bell Pepper ~ 30 calories) and look for something healthy that you could pair it with for extra flavor like hummus or a low calorie dip.


    Accidentally Low-Calorie Vegan

    You may also want to check out the 100-calories snack packs. Many of them are Accidentally Vegan, just be sure to read the labels.


    Stopping the Cravings

    The problem with any snacks around 100 calories is that they won’t leave you satisfied for long. Some of the tricks that I’d suggest are eating snacks that contain protein or by drinking a full glass of unsweetened tea or water 5-10 minutes before eating any of these snacks. These will both help to not leave your stomach feeling empty after eating the snack and will make it much less likely that you’ll go back for more.

    Italian Stuffed Crepes (Vegan.com Top 10 Recipe, 2008)

    Spinach Crepes

    Recipe from Nonna’s Italian Kitchen, by Bryanna Clark Grogan.
    Buy the book from Amazon.com.

    From Bryanna: Crepes, or crespelle, may not be the first thing that comes to mind when Italian food is mentioned, but they have been enjoyed for centuries in Italy, even by the Medicis, and you will find the Italian way with them ideal for simple family meals and for entertaining. Crepes have been made in Italy with many different types of flours. They are particularly popular in Tuscany. In Emilia Romagna and Piedmont, they are called cannelloni, or they are folded into triangles and called fazzoletti, after the folded black handerkerchiefs that older farm women still wear on their heads. In southern Italy they are often referred to as manicotti. Filled crepes that are cut into short lengths and baked are called bocconcini, which means “little mouthfuls”. Crespelle “cakes”, or timbali, are crepes stacked with filling in between and cut into wedges.

    CRESPELLE RIPIENE VEGAN (VEGAN STUFFED ITALIAN CREPES)

    Serves 6 (This recipe can be made soy-free)

    INGREDIENTS:
    1 recipe (12) Crespelle (Italian Crepes) (see recipe below)

    1 recipe medium-thick Besciamella Sauce (see recipe below)

    OR a Marinara Sauce (light italian tomato sauce) (your favorite)

    ( Variation: you can layer Besciamella Sauce over the Marinara Sauce, for a really special dish)

    about ½ cup Galaxy Foods Vegan Soy Parmesan (or soy-free Parma!– http://eatintheraw.com/ )

    SPINACH AND “CHEESE” FILLING:

    INGREDIENTS:

    This recipe can be made soy-free if you use the Almond Ricotta.

    2 onions, minced

    1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

    2 lbs. fresh cleaned spinach (or other greens) OR 2 10 oz. pckgs. chopped frozen spinach (or other greens)

    1½ cups Tofu-Cashew Ricotta OR Almond Ricotta (see recipes below)

    4 to 6 tablespoons Galaxy Foods Vegan Soy Parmesan (or soy-free “Parma!”)

    salt, freshly ground pepper and nutmeg to taste


    DIRECTIONS:
    Saute the onions in the olive oil in a non-stick skillet until they are soft and starting to brown (adding a tiny bit of water as needed, to keep from sticking).

    Meanwhile, place the fresh spinach in boiling water until it is completely wilted, then drain, squeeze dry and chop it, OR, if using frozen spinach, thaw it thoroughly (you can quick-thaw it by placing the whole carton in the microwave for 5 minutes) and squeeze it as dry as possible.

    Mix the spinach in a bowl with the cooked onions, ricotta, soy Parmesan, and salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste. (It should be strongly seasoned.)

    Preheat the oven to 425°F.

    Place a generous amount of filling down the center of each crepe and roll it up. Place the rolls in an oiled baking dish. (You can prepare the crepes up to this point several hours ahead of time.) Pour a little of the sauce you are using over the crepes, sprinkle with soy Parmesan or alternate, and bake 20 minutes. Serve with more sauce on the side. (Or, if you prefer, bake the crepes with a generous amount of sauce and do not serve with sauce on the side.)

    (To make fazzoletti, spread 2 or 3 tablespoons filling over one half of the crepe, fold over the other half, then fold the whole thing in half to make a triangle. Stand the fazzoletti up in the oiled baking pan or casserole with their points sticking upwards. Dab a little margarine on the point of each fazzoletti. Bake about 20 minutes and serve the sauce on the side.)

    STUFFED CREPE RECIPE COMPONENTS:


    CRESPELLE VEGAN (VEGAN CREPES)

    Makes 12

    This recipe can be made soy-free.

    Crespelle can be made ahead (even frozen), and they make an elegant dinner dish for company or special occasions, such as Easter dinner. These vegan crespelle are nice and tender, thin but not fragile, roll well, and have a delicate flavor.

    INGREDIENTS:

    1 tablespoon powdered egg replacer (Ener-G and Orgran are the preferred brands)

    ¼ cup water

    1 cup unbleached white flour or wholewheat pastry flour

    ¾ cup plus 1 tablespoon water

    ½ cup nondairy milk

    ¼ cup chickpea flour or soy flour

    2 tablespoon nutritional yeast flakes

    2 teaspoons sugar

    ½ teaspoon baking powder

    ½ teaspoon salt

    a pinch EACH of white pepper and freshly-ground nutmeg

    DIRECTIONS:

    Mix the water and egg replacer in a blender until frothy. Add the remaining ingredients to the blender and beat for one minute. The batter should be like heavy cream. (This can be made ahead, but the batter does not require resting for 30 minutes, as many crepe batters do.)

    Crespelle are made like ordinary crepes. Heat a nonstick 8″ skillet over medium-high heat and wipe it lightly with oil before making each crepe. Use 3 tablespoons of batter per crepe (stirring the batter before you make each crepe), rolling and tilting the pan until it evenly covers the bottom. Cook for a few seconds, or until the top looks dry. Carefully loosen the crepe with a spatula and flip it over. After a few seconds the other side should be dry. Fold into quarters or roll like a jelly roll and place on a plate (or leave them flat if you are going to stack them with filling). If you are going to use the crepes shortly, cover them with a clean tea towel.

    Either fill the crepes and serve according to the specific recipe directions, or let them cool and place in a plastic bag or rigid container (with pieces of waxed paper in between each crepe) and refrigerate for up to 3 days, or freeze them for future use (thaw thoroughly before filling).


    RICOTTA DI SOYA (TOFU RICOTTA) makes 3½ cups

    This mixture is very similar to the creamy full-fat ricotta used in Italy, which bears little resemblance to the watery, grainy ricotta available to most North Americans. It’s so creamy that you can use it as a spread on bread, or a filling for crespelle (crepes), or even in desserts.

    INGREDIENTS:

    2 (12.3 oz.) boxes extra-firm SILKEN tofu, crumbled

    ½ cup + 2 tablespoons raw cashew pieces, ground very fine in a coffee/spice mill or mini-chopper

    2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

    ½ teaspoon salt

    DIRECTIONS:

    In a food processor, mix about 3 cups of the crumbled tofu, the ground cashews, the lemon juice and salt until they are VERY smooth. Then crumble in the remaining tofu and process again. The resulting mixture should be mostly smooth, but with a little graininess– it doesn’t have to be like cream cheese.

    Scoop the “ricotta” into a plastic container and refrigerate. It firms up when chilled.

    ALMOND “RICOTTA”

    Makes about 2½ cups
    Soy-Free.

    This is a tasty vegan “ricotta”– the almond milk has a clean, mild taste.

    1 cup hot water

    ½ cup whole blanched almonds

    1 cup cold water

    4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

    4 tablespoons cornstarch (if you’re allergic to corn, you can use wheat starch, or use 6 tablespoons white rice flour)

    1 tablespoons oil

    1 teaspoon maple syrup

    ½ teaspoon salt


    DIRECTIONS:

    Place the hot water and almonds in the blender and blend until a very smooth “cream” results– be patient! It cannot be grainy. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend again well.

    Pour the mixture into a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan and stir constantly over medium-high heat until it thickens and comes to a boil. Turn the heat down to medium and cokk 1 minute more, stirring.

    MICROWAVE OPTION: Pour the mixture into a large microwave-safe bowl or beaker. Microwave 2 minutes on HIGH. Whisk. Microwave 1 to 2 minutes more, or until thickened.

    Scrape the mixture into a container and let it come to room temperature. Beat it with a whisk or electric mixer. Cover and chill. When it is chilled and firm, mash and stir it with a fork, until it has some texture. Refrigerate.


    DAIRY-FREE BECHAMEL OR WHITE SAUCE

    makes 2 cups

    This sauce can be made soy-free– see the end of the recipe.

    This rich-tasting sauce is actually quite low in fat. It can be used as an all-purpose white sauce in all of your cooking, and as a topping for Greek dishes, such as vegetarian moussaka, and even as a substitute for melted cheese in many casseroles. In Italy, this type of sauce is used on lasagna rather than the heavy melted cheeses in American-style lasagne.

    I think this formula is a great improvement upon vegan white sauces made completely with soymilk, which I find too sweet. The tofu (or cashews) and broth cube add richness without much fat.


    INGREDIENTS:

    2 tablespoons dairy-free margarine or extra-virgin olive oil

    1½ to 3 tablespoons unbleached flour (depending on thickness desired)

    BLENDED MIXTURE:

    1 cup soy, almond, or rice milk

    ½ cup extra-firm SILKEN tofu or regular medium-firm tofu, crumbled

    ½ cup water

    1 “chicken-style” vegetarian broth cube (or enough for 1 cup of liquid), crumbled

    ½ teaspoon salt

    a large pinch EACH of freshly-grated nutmeg and white pepper


    DIRECTIONS:

    Place all of the Blended Mixture ingredients, EXCEPT the nutmeg and pepper, in the blender and blend until VERY smooth. Set aside.

    Melt the margarine in a medium, heavy saucepan and whisk in the flour. Whisk it over medium-high heat for a few minutes, but remove from heat before it starts to change color (you want a white “roux”). Scrape this into the Blended Mixture and blend for a few seconds, then pour the mixture back into the pot. Stir over medium-high heat until it thickens and boils; turn down and simmer on low for a few minutes. Whisk in the nutmeg and pepper.

    MICROWAVE OPTION: Melt the margarine in a large microwave-safe bowl or 1 qt. Pyrex measuring beaker on HiGH for 45 seconds. Whisk in the flour and microwave on HIGH 2 minutes. Scrape this into the Blended Mixture and blend briefly, then pour it back into the bowl or beaker, or pour in the Blended mixture and mix with a hand immersion blender until smooth. Microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes. Whisk. Microwave for 2 more minutes. Whisk. Microwave for 2 minutes more. Whisk in the nutmeg and pepper. IF DOUBLING THE RECIPE, use a larger bowl and increase the cooking time to 3 minutes each time.

    To make this sauce very low-fat: leave out the margarine and simply cook the flour in a dry pan or microwave until it just starts to change color. You can use reduced fat tofu and soymilk, too, if you like.

    To make this sauce soy-free: omit the tofu; use ¼ cup more rice or almond milk (1¼ in total) and use ¼ cup raw cashews instead of the tofu. Since the cashews have a thickening effect, use less flour. Use only 2 teaspoons soy-free and dairy-free margarine, or use olive oil.

    To make this sauce wheat-free: add the melted margarine or olive oil directly to the blended mixture, along with 1 to 4 tablespoons white rice flour (or mochiko flour, also known as sweet/glutinous rice flour) in stead of the wheat flour (so you omit the first cooking step). 4 tablespoons makes a very thick sauce.

    NOTE: Sauces made with mochiko flour (also called sweet or glutinous white rice flour—though it contains no gluten!) (see under Wheat-Free above) are excellent for freezing (for instance, if you freeze a prepared but not baked lasagne), because the sauce will not separate when thawed.

    Health

    Vegetarians are healthier than people who eat meat. It’s a fact. Scientific studies show that vegetarians suffer much less from illnesses like cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure and other common health problems. A major study reported in the British Medical Journal in 1994 found that, of 5000 meat-eaters and 6000 non-meat eaters, vegetarians had 40% less risk of cancer and 30% less risk of heart disease than the meat-eaters and were 20% less likely to die of any cause (Oxford Vegetarian Study). A US study of 50,000 vegetarians showed a very low rate of cancer (Seventh Day Adventist Study, Massachussets). It has been estimated that by following a low-fat vegetarian diet, the risk of food poisoning is decreased by 80%. More evidence of the benefits of a vegetarian diet is being found each year.

    Cancer Protection

    A major report published by the World Cancer Research Fund in 1997 recommended we lower our risk of cancer by choosing predominantly plant-based diets rich in a variety of vegetables and fruits, legumes and minimally processed starchy staple foods, and to limit the intake of grilled, cured and smoked meats and fish. These methods of preparing meat produce polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and heterocyclic amines which are carcinogenic

    Heart Disease

    Regular fruit and vegetable consumption reduces the risk of ischemic heart disease. A recent survey of 47,000 Italians found that persons in the highest tertile of vegetable consumption had a 21and 11% reduced risk of myocardial infarction and angina, respectively, compared with those in the lowest tertile of vegetable consumption

    Anthocyanin pigments, the reddish pigments found in fruits, such as strawberries, cherries, cranberries, raspberries, blueberries, grapes, and black currants, are very effective in scavenging free radicals, inhibiting LDL cholesterol oxidation and inhibiting platelet aggregation. Various terpenoids in fruits and vegetables, and tocotrienols in nuts and seeds facilitate lower blood cholesterol levels, by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase (21). Garlic, onions and other members of the Allium family, contain a variety of ajoenes, vinyldithiins, and other sulfide compounds that have antithrombotic action and may lower blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels. and proponents point to the link between E.coli contaminations in food and industrial scale meat and dairy farms. The most recent E. coli outbreak has once again demonstrated this link because the source of this E. coli was traced back to “a large ranch in the Salinas Valley that has a beef cattle operation” about a half-mile from the spinach fields where spinach became contaminated.

    Vegetarianism is believed to reduce E. coli infections,

    Various animal food safety scares over recent years have led to increased numbers of people choosing a semi-vegetarian or vegetarian diet. These scares have included Avian flu in poultry, foot-and-mouth in sheep, PCBs in farmed salmon, generally high dioxin concentrations in animal products, and artificial growth hormones, antibiotics or BSE in cows. According to various organisations, vCJD in humans is strongly linked with exposure to the BSE agent that has been found in beef. However, it must be noted that vegetables and fruits have a risk of being contaminated by pesticide residue because they are consumed directly.

    Medical

    Sometimes patients of alternative medicine are advised to adhere to a vegetarian diet as prescribed by the practitioners of such unconventional medical treatments. These patients are either asked to continue such a diet either for the course of the treatment or for longer durations. Ayurveda and Siddha medicine are examples of medical treatments that prescribe such a vegetarian diet. In such cases, the patient either follows vegetarianism for the defined period or sometimes continues long after the treatment is over.

      Thank you for these recipes. There are many other simple vegan dishes that we can make (or even eat at restaurants). My personal favourites are bruschetta with chopped tomatoes, basil, garlic, onion, olive oil, Grilled mushrooms with garlic and Babaganoush (baked eggplant, garlic, sesame seed paste – tahini, lemon juice, parsley).

      Thank you Rinpoche for your infinite love and kindess for all of us. Such an amazing list of recipes, and there are possible variations we can adapt to it. If we put our mind to it, anything is possible. I started juicing vegetables in the morning about 3 years ago every morning – initially with “safe” tasting combination vegetables, then experimented to include alfafa sprouts, for eg. Some taste good, some not so good. But bottom line, i felt great after a while. The recipes listed here are fantastic becos i am not a fan of vegetarian char siew/mocked meat dishes typically found in the chinese vegetarian shops. The eatery outlet next to my office added some vegetarian items on their menu after i suggested it to them – so all of us can make a difference in taking the first step. There is also a book “EAT RIGHT FOR YOUR TYPE” which basically specifies the food list based on our blood type – including a long list of vegetables and fruits with a few recipes in it. I suggest for those who would like to know how they can help their health and diet to read this book.

      Dear Rinpoche, thanks for the many above recommendations and choices of vegetarian recipes to choose from. At last i can enjoy my craving for food hehe… and yet without having to senselessly support the killing of many innocent animals for consumption :)

      Rinpoche, due to Your skillful method of teaching on developing loving kindness and compassion for others, i have avoided taking meat and poultry and having vegetarian food instead for about 2 weeks already ever since watching those brutal killings. May i dedicate the merits accummulated to Your long life and great health and to those beings who have been senselessly killed in the past, those in the present now and those would be in the future. May their pain and sufferings quickly ceased and may they take good rebirth and meet the Holy Dharma….Tashi Delek

      Dear readers of this incredible blog of an incredible guru,

      The recipes are incredible, try them out and I’m sure you will not miss meat anymore..

      However, look and FEEL beyond the recipes and words, our Guru is INCREDIBLE!! This is Rinpoche’s way to TEACH his students and everyone of his readers!

      Where on earth could you find a teacher who, not only tells you why, explain – over and over again – the reasons behind going vegan, he DIRECTED us (in his earlier article) WHERE to find vegetarian restaurants and now he even SHOW you HOW to COOK vegetarian dishes at home.

      These recipes are manifestation of our Guru’s LOVE and COMPASSION towards his students, readers and all sentient beings!

      Thank you Rinpoche for your unending kindness, I pray to have the strength and will power to NOT EAT MEAT from now on…

      With folded hands

      Dear Rinpoche,
      I met a 80-year old stranger, an anmerican man sitting on a bench outside a church not long ago. We started to talk. He travelled alone to different places he wanted to visit before it´s to late. He have a lungdisease growing worse every year and had to sit down and rest. The interesting conversation kept me stay until the concert in the church started some hours later. Despite the mans disease he was full of live and when he heard or talked about something he was impressed by he said “WOW” like many americans do. I started to laugh and when commenting it he said: “Life is not about how many breath you take. It´s about what takes your breath away. WOW!”

      I say like the old man: “WOW!” about your kindness “I want to help your health, your lifestyle, our planet and animals. Be kind to yourself. Be nice to your body. Be nice to the bodies of all animals. Do not let suffering continue. It is in your hands.” and the delicious recepies.

      WHO can resist to at least test some recepies???
      WHO can resist reflect on information given???
      WHO can resist become vegetarian in the long run???
      WHO doesn´t want to be kind???

      I think everyone have a whish to be kind. This blog post makes it easier.

      Thank You Rinpoche!

      *thinking, about 1 or 2 nights before this was posted.*

      “I wish Rinpoche would blog lots of recipe’s for me to transition myself out of eating meat forever.”

      It blew my mind when I logged onto the computer after 2 days not touching it, (a long time for me). I log into Twitter and Rinpoche is right there and tweeting about Vegetarian recipe’s not even 5 minutes after I logged into twitter.

      I cried so hard I couldn’t believe it. Then I said “It’s time: no more meat.”

      A miracle like that turned me right around without even a second thought about meat. The coincidence was too strong to be chance. I guess some of my good karma finally ripened.

      (previously I was vegetarian 5 days a week) and I had started working my way off meat for about a year now, adding another vegetarian day every time I felt secure. Rinpoche said he would make offerings to anyone who made any commitment to become vegetarian or vegan to manifest the animal shelter faster.

      And the rest is history. Or, in my case, the meat!

      Aiyo! All the dishes are so incredibly WHOLESOME! Must be very, very “ho-ciak” too! Most of all, i am so touched by Rinpochela’s incredible KINDNESS – it’s no mean effort to, not only REPEATEDLY tell us, even BEG us to be kind to animals; he has ALSO made such a GREAT EFFORT to put up such WONDERFUL recipes. If Rinpochela is not COMPASSIONATE, he would not have done all that! Thank you very, very much Rinpochela! If animals could talk, they would say the same!

      I love vegetarian food too but lately I have been eating meat. Worst part was I was about to and see my clients for a food tasting then comes Rinpoche’s sms about eating meat. :( I now work in a restuarant and my meals are provided. When I eat alone I have not problems with eating just vegetable like naans, aloo gobi, palak paneer friend kailan, broccolli with mushrooms but it is difficult when you have not had your meals and there are left overs then eat the left overs of dishes. (I am full of excuses) I could have just gone for rice and dahl.

      Yummy yummy food that are vegetarian!!! Knowing that we are so attached to food, Rinpoche has put in so much time and effort to post all these wonderful recipes for us. And with these recipes, we should not have any more excuses and say that vegetarian food are not tasty.

      Rinpoche is so kind to let us know that eating meat is not good for our body and our karma. Now we can all enjoy our food without having to kill any lives. Thank you Rinpoche for your love and compassion for all beings.

      Thank you very much, Dear Rimpoche. I cope well with eating no meat fish and eggs (except pasta containing egg substances, I love Italian food!)
      but I spend much money on buying vegetarian food instead of preparing it myself (I have a very strong limitation on believing in my ability to cook for me as well as other sentient beings)

      Thank you Rinppoche for ther universal vegan recipes which have posted on your blog. It must have taken a lot of time to find these recipes and post it for everyone to see and go vegetarian because Rinpoche cares for animals and don’t want them to be slaughtered for the dining table. At the same time instil compassion in the people so that they don’t eat meat. It is true because of eating meat a lot of people suffer from a lot diseases duer to toxins derived from eating meat. It is good that the recipes that Rinpoche have posted are also mixtures of Eastern and Western Vegan cuisine which is simple and easy to prepare. The Chinese cuisine also have mocked meat on sale in the market and are ready to be cooked.

      Incredible it is that Rinpoche takes the time and care to look up these 50 recipes to share with everyone so we lead a healthy and compassionate lifestyle.

      The recipes are interesting and may require some practice to whip up but as Rinpoche says, Practice Makes Perfect. My kids will love them. Now to coerce my wife to spend time in the kitchen to cook :)

      Thank you very much, Rinpoche.

      Dearest Tsem Tulku,
      I make a vow on this place to choose any of those wonderful receipe videos you showed on here or YouTube and really cook it to begin with. I promise. This may sound easy, but for me it is not, even though I’ve read your article about self endulgence (and maybe I even am) in my dharma and cooking practice. I don’t want to become bitter, I want to change, right now I lately blamed myself of living in stagnation and I will do my best in cooking a first vegan meal to get out of this.

      Dear Friends,

      I received this email today from http://www.change.org , an excellent petition website where you can help the lives of animals and humans and protect the environment.

      You can sign petitions with a single click:

      Two of the world’s largest food sellers — Walmart and Supervalu (the parent company of grocery store chains like Shaws and Albertsons) — are helping to destroy the world’s ocean population by selling massive quantities of endangered fish.

      Ninety percent of the seas’ top predators have already disappeared. These are fish like bluefin tuna, orange roughy, and shark — the same species that line the seafood coolers of the two companies.

      After pressure from Greanpeace, Change.org members, and others, Trader Joe’s, Costco, and Target have all pulled many imperiled species from their stores to prevent further catastrophe. But Walmart and Supervalu keep pushing these species toward the brink of extinction.

      Their survival — and the survival of the entire ocean ecosystems they’re a part of — could rest on the decision making of Walmart and Supervalu.

      They may hold billions of dollars in purchasing power, but they’ve got a major weakness: consumer demand. If shoppers pressure these supermarkets to shape up their acts, they’ll have no choice but to make sustainable seafood the only choice.

      Sign the petition asking Walmart and Supervalu to immediately develop sustainable seafood programs and stop selling endangered fish:

      http://www.change.org/petitions/tell-wal-mart-supervalu-to-clean-up-their-act-and-save-the-oceans?alert_id=GlvmWYXPXw_aFcNMkeBVk&me=aa

      Thanks for taking action,

      Patrick and the Change.org team

      This is really important. If these people keep putting profit first, there will BE no fish in the very near future. Please take One Minute to sign this petition, while there is still time. Thank you.

      From Sengpiow: Yesterday, Tsem Rinpoche went for a morning walk in a park near his residence, and saw a dying fish in the stream. Rinpoche went near the fish to recite mantra and blow the mantra on the fish, so that the fish can take a good rebirth by the blessing of the mantras…Then Rinpoche saves some trapped birds and bat! watch the video here! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvh-r3cW2zw

      Today’s advice is meant to help you and arm you against negative energies. I have come across many types of spirit or black magic afflictions. Some were genuine, some were paranoia or people wanting to blame their failures on something else. If powerful positive beings exist, then why not negative. If good beings help you then negative would harm. The world is filled with both types in humans and non-humans. Depending on our karma we can attract both. Better to be safe. Do our prayers to Tsongkapa/Setrap daily. It can only help never harm. It can prevent in some cases. I wish everyone safety, luck, merits and spiritual growth. TR

      Negative energies or beings that follow you back from ‘dirty’ places or places of vice where the owners may keep spirits for success can be attracted to you and follow you home. It may not affect you as your merits are ok..but it can affect a family member or friend. They could create disharmony, fighting for no reasons. accidents, fear, lack of sleep, loss of appetite, change in moods, mood swings, anger, electrical problems, loss of memory (severe cases). I have encountered many of these sorts in the last 20 years of meeting people. Some ppl had pots and pans banged at night in their homes, or when they are in bed, something is always touching them. Some of these cases solved when they followed suggestions to overcome. Some do not follow and the situations gets worse. So if should protect and bless ourselves with GURU YOGA OF TSONGKAPA/MIGTSEYMA/SETRAP PRACTICE DAILY. We have nothing to lose and it increases wisdom, patience and merits. TR
      ************ Even when you don’t need to go far, sometimes we go to certain hawker places, wet markets, places that slaughter alot of animals (very dirty and negative energy), places with gambling, or very down places like clubs (drinking/heartbreaks/sadness), or places that have alot of fighting or pain, death, hospitals, funerals,etc.. we should bless ourselves before going and after going…sometimes we are sensitive and when we go we can attract wrong energies or negative spirits. They can follow us and hide in our homes for years or months before they ‘appear’. It can affect our family too. So very good to do GURU YOGA OF TSONGKAPA DAILY, FOLLOWED BY MIGTSEYMA AND THEN CONCLUDE WITH SETRAP PRAYERS/MANTRA AND BLACK TEA. You shouldn’t think prayers of these sorts daily is a chore or lots of work…you should think it is protection. If you are affected it might take months or years to ‘clean’ you again..so it is worth it to do your protection daily and have your pendants to bless you. TR

      When we travel alot, we pass through many places, many buildings, many vehicles, sit in many seats, stay at many places. Hundred or thousands of beings used these items and places.. All these may have negative energy or residual energy of the previous person that can affect you if you are sensitive. Sometimes if you are very sensitive, in some cases, these energies can make you blur in which case you are considered polluted. It is very important then to take holy water daily. Wash with holy water (can get from Pastors or Ladrang) and recite Manjushri’s praise daily 3x and mantra 5 or more rounds till you feel cleared. You may do wrathful black Manjushri or peaceful Manjushri. Up to you. Before you travel it is good to bless your clothes, bags, luggage and personal items with GURU YOGA OF TSONGKAPA/MIGTSEYMA/ SERKYM OF SETRAP. After reciting the migtseyma/setrap mantra, blow on your clothes and items and feel you are protected. This would safeguard you before you travel. TR
      ***************** Also excellent and modern are Buddha pendants. After you pick a Buddha pendant, have one of the Pastors of Kechara bless the pendant. Then keep the pendant well and wear is excellent. If you do not have access to a Pastor, then keep your pendant on your shrine and do GURU YOGA OF TSONGKAPA/MIGTSEYMA/SETRAP SERKYM to consecrate your pendants. After consecration one wears the pendant that looks like a beautiful piece of jewellery but actually they are powerful protection pendants because they contain the consecrated image of a powerful manifestation of enlightenment-a Buddha. One can have a few pendants is ok. But one should get the best pendant one can from made from the best material and think the good material is offered to Buddha. If the pendants get stained due to sweat, then very good to clean thinking you are purifying your karma. One should make sure all your loved ones wear a blessed pendant. If Buddhas are beneficial on your shrine, very good on your body also. TR
      *********************** Chakras are good to keep. Chakras are special mantras, mandalas and prayers of a certain Buddha. Then it is folded then sealed with 5 colored strings during pujas. Puja and consecration of the chakras can take 1-3 days where the diety is invited and abide within each chakra. Chakras should not get wet, otherwise they can be kept anywhere or worn anywhere. Wearing chakras is very good, but to fully activate their energy, one should recite the mantra, prayer and liturgy of one’s diety. If you don’t have a specific deity, you do GURU YOGA OF TSONGKAPA/MIGTSEYMA/SETRAP and this will ‘activate’ the power of the chakra fully. It is also very good to do this. Chakras are wonderful gifts. They an be worn, kept in car, office, wallet or anyhwere..They are very holy and very effective. TR
      ************
      Most important when you travel alot or stay in many hotels, keep a dukkar or hayagriva chakra with you. It is good to bless the room with recitation of GURU YOGA OF TSONGKAPA. Recite migtseyma 21x and do do black tea to your protector. Then go to sleep. It is a good way to purify the room with the above. If you do it wilth faith with tremendous confidence you will be protected from negative energies. This is a easy practice to protect yourself when you have to travel alot and stay in many different types of hotels. Many people stay in hotels with many types of energies. Sometimes the residual energy will stay and affect another person. Very good to do this. TR
      ************* When people sleep they should not have offering bowls, empty altar cups, empty plates, cups and bowls around one’s bed. Also when you sleep, try not to place your hands on your chest. These actions attract one type of spirit. Once they come, they hang around for quite a while. Make sure your altar does not have empty items on it. Make sure there are not empty items around you when going to sleep or around your bed. TR

      I haven’t lived in Gaden since 1992 when I was sent to Malaysia. I love Gaden and loved so much living there. I like so many things about Gaden. Conversations would not be lonely and easy. Whatever I talk about the monks immediately understand. I do not have to face ‘opposition’ , doubts, hundreds of questions, and every detail simple about the dharma or dharma work has to be explained. I miss that so much. I am not lonely for company, but I am lonely for familiarity very much. I was very content, at peace and in my element in Gaden. I never knew or imagined I would have to go to Malaysia, stay and take on heavy responsibilities. I am not complaining but I love Gaden, the monks, my teachers, the great masters, the senior monks whom I have many friends. I miss them so much. So so much. I love and respect the great old monks, Rinpoches and spectacular Geshes. Gaden was a city of practitioners and I was home. Lord Tsongkapa’s presence pervades the whole Gaden. TR

      Dear all, had a nice conversation with my friend the monk Ven. Losang Yeshe in Gaden a few days ago. I had asked him to learn up how to make a large outdoor stupa from senior monks a few months ago. He told me he is learning and it is not difficult for him at all. I am looking forward to building our Vajra Yogini stupa in the future and he will assist us. It will be my/our first outdoor stupa in this life. Very beneficial and purifying for us. TR

      Dear all, I gave a talk on desire to a few inclusive of Paris and David. I asked David and Paris to write up the talk on their blogs. My plan was after they write it, I’ll link it to my blog. From my blog people will click to their blog to read the write up and benefit many who read the talk. Paris did a very good write up and did not miss the subtle points I was expressing that night. She really took the time and effort to write it…I was happy to see she wrote exaclty as I expressed. Effort pays off usually or eventually. I am happy to see there are 669 views (43 comments) already going back to Paris’ blog to read the teachings. The teachings will be benfit many. Must save and read again and again. Must share with others…Must contemplate. You want dharma, I am giving it to you and Paris wrote it out perfectly.

      You know of course, that you have it in you as well. We mothers, after feeding a baby with our own bodies, know what it is to give ourselves. I give you myself, the most valuable thing I have.

    Heruka! We say we want to improve yet we don't hold our vows. We promise to keep our samaya, yet our promise to our earlier promises laxed. We want to experience only good results yet we hold onto our face. We want wealth, yet we give nothing. We want success, yet we offer tiny offerings to the Three Jewels. We say we have great faith in our Guru, yet when his assignments are difficult we run. We say we want a good rebirth yet all our actions are motivated by self gain. Heruka, Heruka, Heruka, how are we to recieve your blessings when our three doors are closed tightly by selfishness, ignorance and anger?~Tsem Rinpoche

I've read the letter from Rinpoche and have remembered the message, not to become "high" and lose myself when I received gift. I still kept the message Rinpoche told me on the blog chat that always be humble, and I know my very downfall is become "big head" after being praised. I thank Henry, outlet managers and staff who are very helpful and accepting when I moved to outlets, I will continue to work hard in the outlets. Rinpoche please rest well.

    Bryan gave me an incredible MOTHER'S DAY GIFT. It is so auspicious. He had someone draw HH Kyabje Zong Rinpoche's sacred face onto the body of Buddha Vajradharma. Buddha Vajradharma is the form Buddha takes to teach the immaculate and fautless tantra of Vajra Yogini. In Vajra Yogini's tantra and meditations, you must visualize your guru in the form of Vajradharma to make offerings both inner, outer & secret offerings daily to one's tantric guru & to meditate on Him in that form. It is very integral part of the practice. If you do the meditations well on your guru in this particular form during the practice of the sadhana..you can gain tremendous realizations and control over one's mind to leave the body when you want. So getting this picture today was an omen if Kecharians fulfill their responsibilities, then Vajra Yogini's practice will spread in this region. Very good omen. I feel this strongly. Bryan really planned out this gift & surprised me!! I will put in Chamang Ladrang in the future. THANK YOU BRYAN!!TR

    Back in New Jersey over 30 years ago, there lived a lady down the street who was also a student of my teacher. Her name is Carmen (she is a nun now and her ordination name is: Ani Thupten). She had a nice size library of books and many dharma books. I loved the Dharma books!! I would spend so much time browsing and getting snippets of each book from Carmen. I use to ride by bike down to chat with her and borrow her books and it took me like 5 mins by bike..She lived on the same street. I would read dharma books voraciously and write down my questions. I would call Carmen almost daily for years to ask her to clarify the readings I had questions on. She would spend hours on a phone with me answering questions never once losing patience. I learned so much from her. She had vast dharma knowledge, very devoted to our teacher and would do her meditations and extensive sadhanas daily. She would join in all the dharma classes and pujas at our nearby Kalmuck Buddhist Temple. She was such a good dharma friend and I enjoyed her company very much. I wanted to be like her to have the freedom to study and practice dharma. When I recievd my first initiation by our teacher at the temple, Carmen sat right next to me on the front row. Thrilling!! After initiation we would have ten days of explanations (commentary) from our teacher His Eminence Kensur Losang Tharchin Rinpoche. I was so excited and deeply happy to get commentary from our great and knowledgable teacher. What I did not understand, I would of course consult Carmen who is much more advanced and taught me patiently after each day’s teachings. Around 15 years ago Carmen came to India and I travelled with her to holy Bodhgaya, Varanasi and Dharamsala. I escorted her to these places. Since then I have not met up with her. But I know she is fine. Around two years back I sent her a three foot Vajra Yogini statue as a gift from me. Carmen received the statue and was very happy. It was my offering to her for so much kindness shown me when I was a child. I wish so much she can visit Malaysia. She would be happy.

    We all want to be a part of something big and with good results. But the only way we can be a part of that is if we work hard together with the other members of our Kechara. The time will pass. It can pass with you taking on difficulties or it can pass with you doing nothing. I feel it's better to work hard now and enjoy later than to enjoy nothing now and then end up nowhere later. Prayers and dedications are ok, but hard work must be part of the prayer. Tsem Rinpoche

    His Holiness the Dalai Lama seated here with His sacred mother. A mother who gives birth to great beings like Shakyamuni, Tsongkapa, Dalai Lama, Panchen Lama, Trijang Rinpoche, etc must be a Buddha Herself, a highly realized Dakini, a powerful practitioner, or a lady who made prayers in previous lives to provide others with great dharma in one way or another. A lady of great spiritual merit or virtue.. I wanted to share this photo with you because if I ever met His Holiness' mother, I would prostrate to Her immediately. Beautiful picture. His Holiness is not ordinary for sure and neither could a being who gave birth to Him. Tibetans always said she was very saintly, gentle, simple and deeply spiritual. During Her lifetime many went to recieve Her blessings..Tsem Rinpoche

    It's very revealing how when you give, offer and have something for them, they crowd around smiling, happy and easy. The minute you ask them to give something, contribute or really help out, they totally disappear. Handphones shut. No replies. No sound. As if you they never knew you. People like that make themselves 2nd rate, find 1st rate people to work with and move on. Recently I encountered some students like that!~ Tsem Rinpoche

The people that helping at animal liberation are Frederick Law, Jack, Lilyn, Sam and Chervenne, Jill & Victor Choi. 3. We have around 70 people attended. It was a drizzling morning. But the people are every enthusiastic. 4. Pastor Chia was here to brief and lead the prayer. We introduce to the people our Kechara Pastor. Sound new to them but they can see that the Pastor is someone in a highly position to deliver spiritual talk or ritual. 5. There are some new faces that join us today. Knowing our event frm KP, KO, Facebook and friends. There are also people from the park for excercise. From Nicholas

    Wesak Day May 5, 2012 at Kechara House. I gave refuge to 100 new persons last night. TR

    Last night between 300-400 persons congregated at Kechara while I gave a talk to them on 'making a choice' and 'the power and purpose of stupas'. The talk has been taped and will be blogged once tape is ready. The talk was two hours and it flowed well for me although I had very little sleep. Towards the end of the talk I gave refuge vows to 100 new persons from different countries for this. When everything was done, I met up with a group of 15 and 5 from Shanghai. Had a nice dharma talk with them on how to make a centre grow and harmony. Passed out nice dharma gifts to all the visitors so they don't go home empty handed. Also seperately met some directors and movie producers that attended the talk and sought private time with me..these producers and directors are very well known locally. One is from Hong Hong. Got home around 5Am and saw so many gifts from people. Did a Manjushri dedication for all the people who offered gifts to me on Wesak day in gratitude. Also some people from Europe called in to Kechara to arrange flowers to be given to me last night. That was very sweet. I have so many flowers now..over 70 bouquets I would...guess. They have all been offered up on the shrine. Thank you. TR (May 5, 2012)

    Karma exists and created constantly by our actions. Karma created in the past is fertile and will open up when the situation arises. We should never relax and think everything will be alright when there is so much volatile latent karma like a huge volcano temporarily dormant. We can do something about it though. We can 'manipulate' karma and here's how: http://blog.tsemtulku.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/kechara-13-depts/what-are-pujas-about-do-take-a-good-read.html

    If we always do not understand Dharma, then that is a sign of not studying. If we always blame Dharma, it is a sign we do not know what dharma really is. If we always expect of the Dharma, then we are using Dharma in ineffective methods. If we find Dharma difficult, then it is because we are unwilling to accept it. If we give up the Dharma, we are get deeper into our sufferings without respite. If we complain about Dharma it is a sign we are looking for blame in the wrong places and not within ourselves.~Tsem Rinpoche

This morning 9 (Cynthia, fat monk, June, Eric Choong, Jace, Khoo, Fiona and daughter, Lanse) went to KFR. Fat monk brought his friend's daughter Karen, Cynthia Ng brought her mother and daughter.

We met Paul and Pastor Yek Yee leading another 2 groups of people. Most of members are quite clear about what's happening and they are excited about the whole KFR idea, believing that it'll attract people to this land.

After visiting KFR, some of us went to visit KWPC land too. Now KWPC seems very real to us already. Everyone seems to have enjoyed this trip a lot.

Thank you Rinpoche for your skilfull way of showing us the direction that can bring us true benefit.

With folded hands,

    Everyone should offer a minimum of 100,000 lights to Buddha Vajra Yogini before you die. Do not procrastinate. All other unfinished works is not so worrisome. But your spiritual practice incomplete at the time of death is very worrisome. Start your butterlamp retreats in KFR. Don't delay. Tsem Rinpoche

    If we still pursue relationships why hasn't it worked in the past for us? If we are still looking for it and still haven't found it yet, then we must examine what is it in us that doesn't obtain it. If we are in a relationship and we feel stuck, trapped or disenchanted, isn't that a message from our wisdom deep in us we need to achieve something higher? Go for more than finding comfort in the lonliness of false company already.. Contemplate. Tsem Rinpoche
