Vegan Cuisine uses no animal products:
"Vegan cuisine uses no animal products, such as meat, dairy, or eggs. This is more restrictive than vegetarian cuisine, which allows non-meat animal products. All vegan recipes are therefore vegetarian, though not all vegetarian meals are vegan.
Vegans should be attentive to their intake of vitamins B (especially B12) and D, calcium, iodine, and fatty acids. The Vegan Society's nutrition pages have more detailed information on this subject. See also Vegan nutrition on Wikipedia.
When preparing non-vegan recipes in accordance with a vegan diet, meat, eggs, honey, and dairy are replaced with a substitute ingredient. Substitute ingredients try to replicate the taste and texture of an ingredient or its other useful properties. Substituting for an ingredient works to greater or lesser degrees, depending upon the recipe, and some ingredients are almost impossible to replace. For more information see Vegan Substitutions.

Tofu bacon is easy to make. It can be used interchangeably with bacon in most recipes. Great with breakfast or in a b.l.t.
Ingredients
- 3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
Instructions
Slice the tofu into thin strips (as bacon) and fry in a pan on medium, turning once, until crispy and gold brown on each side. Add soy sauce and one to two drops of liquid smoke (available in any large grocery store), toss with the tofu bacon slices, coat with nutritional yeast, and remove from heat.
vegan mayonnaise
- tofu (6 oz) - Silky or soft preferred
- olive oil (3 tablespoons)
Drain the tofu and blend in a food processor/blender until smooth. Add the oil slowly to the blended tofu while the blender is still running. This emulsifies the mixture. Add additional spices, salt, black pepper to taste.
Peanut Sauce
1/2 cup peanut butter
1-2 cloves of garlic
3 Tbsp. soy sauce
2 Tbsp. vinegar, rice vinegar or cider vinegar
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper (optional)
1/2 cup hot water
Mix all ingredients together, adding the water last.
Works very well with stir-fried tofu and greens or any steamed vegetables.
