COMMUNITY COOKBOOK

The
Bumper
Edition

90+ Recipes from the No Meat May Community


FOREWORD
Some say magic doesn’t exist. The No Meat May Community
Cookbook is here to prove them wrong.

The following pages contain spectacular recipes that will


magically transform your eating habits, kitchen and life.

Sounds too good to be true? The proof is in the puddings, the


soups, salads and main courses about to appear in front of you.

These recipes are gifts from our No Meat May Community –


legendary humans from around the world who pledged to eat no
meat or animal products for the 31 days of May.

The sorcery starts in our Facebook group, where No Meat May


veterans support newbies and help them navigate strange new
ingredients such as nutritional yeast, tofu and jackfruit. Soon
everyone is getting creative trading magnificent plant-based
recipes, some of which you’ll see here.

Most of our recruits dramatically cut their meat intake after


doing the challenge. Some go on to become ‘Level 7’ vegans.
What’s enchanting is how encouraging everyone is of each other
– regardless of their journey – and the delicious, creative dishes
they share.

We hope you find some recipes in here that inspire you! Thank
you for joining with No Meat May to work wonders in your
kitchen – and our world.

- Ryan, Guy, Laura and the No Meat May team

PS. With hundreds of recipes shared every day during No Meat May, so many
great plates did not make this collection. But you can find them all in the No
Meat May Facebook Group. Just search by keyword (such as ‘chickpea’) or
visit the ‘topics’ tab where posts have been grouped for easy searching.

1. Divide the black beans into 2 and r eser ve
the liquid fr om the can. Place half the black
beans & mushr ooms in a food pr ocessor &
r oughly chop.

2. In a lar ge bowl, mix the mushr ooms,


beans, vital wheat gluten, dr ied soya mince.

3. Blend the r est of the black beans & their


juice + all the seasoning ingr edients.

4. Top up the blender to the 700ml mar k


with water and blend until smooth (you want
700ml total liquid). Then tip the blender
contents into the lar ge bowl of beans &
mushr ooms.

5. Using a wooden spoon, mix together all


the ingr edients in the bowl until combined.
Let this r est for 45 minutes. This allows the
gluten fr om the Vital Wheat Gluten to
hydr ate & star t to for m the bur ger str uctur e.

7. Once the mixtur e is r ested, give it another


mix, ensur ing ever ything is combined. Keep
mixing for 2-3 minutes. This cr eates the
' gluten' str ands.

8. Pr eheat your oven to 220C/ Gas Mar k 5


Shape the bur ger s (will make appr ox. 12

RECIPE BY: TRACEY SHARMAN

IN GR ED IE NT S

400g sweet potato peeled and cut

into 1 inch chunks


75g potato cut into chunks
350g gf self r aising flour
Salt & pepper

DIR EC TIO NS

1. Steam the potatoes until tender then


allow to cool completely.

2. Mash well in a lar ge bowl. Add in the


flour , salt & pepper and gently mix
together to for m a soft dough. Use
your hands - its easier and hands wer e
invented befor e spoons.

3. Your dough shouldn' t be sticky but


you don' t want to add too much flour
either . You should be able to pr ess the
dough and leave an indent but without
it feeling gummy or tacky. If you need
to add a little mor e flour do so but be
ver y car eful not to over wor k or you' ll
end up with heavy, doughy gnocchi.

Method c ontinued on the next pa ge

4. Roughly divide the dough into 4 and r oll
each piece out into a sausage shape. Cut each
sausage into r oughly one inch pieces. You can
leave them exactly like that or cr eate patter ns
with a for k or whatever .

5. I like to just sit my gnocchi in the fr idge


uncover ed for a while just to dr y them ou t.

6. T hen, in batches, dr op them into boiling


salted water . As soon as they pop up to the
sur face they ar e cooked. Scoop them out with
a slotted spoon and tr ansfer them to a lightly
oiled plate or two. You can either ser ve
str aight away as is or you can do a second
step (which I always do) and fr y in a little
olive oil or butter until slightly golden.

7. You can also fr eeze the gnocchi at the


uncooked, cut stage.

8. I ser ved with some dr y fr ied mushr ooms


and br occoli and finished with spinach. T he
butter dr essing was simply butter melted with
thyme leaves, lemon juice and seasoned with

1. Line a container with plastic wr ap or a


double-layer of cheesecloth, allowing some
excess to hang over the sides. T his will
help lift the cheese fr om the container
after fir ming.

2. Pr ess the tofu until it is not r eleasing


any mor e liquid. It is impor tant that the
tofu be as dr y as possible. T o do this easily
and efficiently, wr ap the tofu in a lint-fr ee
kitchen towel or sever al layer s of paper
towels and place on a flat wor k sur face.
Pr ess down fir mly with your hands while
using your upper body weight. Cr umble the
tofu into a food pr ocessor and set aside.

3. Remove the lid fr om the coconut oil and


place the jar or bottle into a micr owave.
Heat until melted (about 30 seconds to 1
minute depending upon the solidity of the
coconut oil); avoid over heating the oil.
Alter nately, place the jar or bottle into a
container filled with near boiling water and
let stand until the oil melts. Measur e ¼ cup
and add to the food pr ocessor with the
r emaining ingr edients (her bs & seasoning).
Pr ocess the contents until ver y smooth.

4. T r ansfer the cheese mixtur e to the lined


tin. Pack the mixtur e with the back of a
spoon and smooth the sur face as best you
can. Cover with plastic wr ap and
