Question: What are some good, easy vegan recipes to try!?
I've got some vegan friends coming over in a few days and would love to have some vegan dishes they can eat!. I've never cooked vegan food before so please, something fast, easy and very simple!.

PS-I'm not interesting in converting to a full time vegan, I already know the benefits!. I'm not interested in joining PETA, and I'm not a PETA freak even though I believe in animal rights!. I just want some simple, easy to make vegan food!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Well your question would have been just as effective without the passive aggressive quip at the end!. (and I'm not vegetarian, nor do I agree with PETA)

Here is my favorite easy vegan recipe!.

Curried Lentils

2 cloves garlic, minced
