Salads and Veggies
Bean Salad

1 (15 oz. or 425 grams) can of green beans   

1 can or approximately 1¾ cups kidney beans, rinsed

1 can garbanzo beans (chick peas), rinsed 

1 can (black) olives, sliced

1-2 Tbsp olive oil    

2 Tbsp lemon juice

½ -1 tsp salt or vegetable salt to taste 

 Chopped sweet onion, optional

Rinse and mix beans, then add dressing and stir in gently.  This is even better if refrigerated slightly, but refrigeration before eating is not necessary.  Remember, color is what makes this salad attractive. 
If available, I usually use black olives, but if not, you may add 1 can black beans, rinsed, for additional color if using green olives. This makes a nice cross-country travel salad if using canned beans. 
Borsch/Beet Soup
2 beets, grated 
2 carrots, grated
2 onions, chopped fine 
4-5 medium potatoes, grated
½ head of cabbage, chopped in short thin strips
About 12 c. (3 quarts) of water
Seasoning-- chicken-like seasoning, Lawry-like seasoning and salt, to taste
Put the water in the pot first. Then prepare and cook the vegetables until tender. Stir frequently to keep it from sticking to the bottom of the pot. 
Add seasoning when vegetables are about cooked. 
(Note: All measurements are approximate. We just use whatever measurements we happen to have on hand.)
Pizzachini Fry
This recipe is very flexible, season it as you like, and use whatever you have from the garden or leftover sauce within reason.
Zucchini chunks to fill a 13" skillet 
(it will cook down)
1 onion, chopped
1 cup of breading mix
1 -1/2 cups of pizza sauce

 Steam or saute zucchini and onion with water or olive oil  until tender.  When tender add breading mix and  pizza sauce, and continue cooking until it forms almost a cheese-like consistency.  
Breading Mix - 1/2 cup crushed cornflakes, 1/2 cup flour, seasoned to taste with garlic powder, onion powder, salt and vegan beef-style seasoning. (This mixture should be flavorful even before cooking.)
