Make this vegan everything bagel granola for a tasty twist on your morning fave.

Vegan Everything Bagel Granola | The Viet Vegan

So we’ve moved and settled into our first home! This whole home buying, moving, unpacking, and settling process has been quite the journey, but it’s probably the first time I ever really cared about how my house looks or flows. Eddie and I have been going to Home Depot, IKEA, and HomeSense on every single day he has off (much to his chagrin), but the hustle we’ve had moving in has paid off to having our main floor pretty much done, our basement is friendship-ready, the only things left to handle are some last shelves to go up in the kitchen and my office!

I’ve been turning my office into my walk-in closet as well, except I don’t have that many clothes and the dresser I bought has smaller drawers than I expected, so I’m still sort of living out of a suitcase, but not really.

I have an excessive amount of not-my-favourite bras and bathing suits that I’m not really sure where to put, but I will eventually find some sort of basket or box to put them in so they’re not just spilling out of my suitcase on the floor behind me as I write this.

We’ve had to make some adjustments to how we cook and eat because of all the upfront costs of furnishing your home: the fees that pop up here and there, and the spontaneous purchases of different house plants (that are ABSOLUTELY necessary…), etc. We’ve been trying to be more frugal and essentially just waste less food. I’m trying to eat all the food we have before we buy more, and I’m sort of reverting back to the way I used to shop, which was buy only the food I needed to make the meal I wanted today.

Because with my history, I know that when I buy things I plan on making tomorrow, or in the vague future, other stuff pops up and then food gets wasted because it goes off or I procrastinate cooking it for a while.

I’m working on it okay? The first step is being honest with myself XD

One of the things I have been liking lately are the various breakfasts I’ve been trying out. I’ve been making cheesy steel cut oats, savoury soups, and having simple toasts for breakfast. Using up more pantry items that I’ve hoarded because there’s something about moving 20 boxes of food, appliances, and dishware that makes you acutely aware that you need to re-evaluate how you buy food vs how you actually eat it. I’ve been chipping away at the stash of noodles and pasta I’ve accumulated, and I have a Costco-sized bag of steel cut oats that I’m working slowly, but surely through.

As much as I love oats, they are hecking satiating, so you don’t need to eat a lot to be satisfied. Which is GREAT as a breakfast, not great for someone who’s trying to eat through a huge bag.

I also discovered that I had hidden bags of regular rolled oats here and there, and while I’m eating these steel cut oats, I needed a way to eat these rolled oats that didn’t include oatmeal. Luckily, my friend Justin suggested we do a hike and that I should bring some sort of snack. Et voilΓ , an excuse to use up some oats! I have made a carrot cake granola and a peach pecan granola before, but I wanted a savoury version to try out. Lately I’ve been seeing Everything Bagel spice everywhere and hey, if this is the spice that takes over pumpkin spice, I am definitely not mad about it.Vegan Everything Bagel Granola | The Viet Vegan

I wanted a subtly savoury but not absolutely bizarre everything bagel granola, so the saltiness comes from the melted vegan butter, but it still has a bit of a smoky sweetness to marry the granola with yogurt, because let’s be real, plain yogurt tastes better with a touch of sweetness.

Puffed rice adds a bit of volume and extra crunch to this to keep it interesting, and adding this to vegan yogurt seriously just makes it taste like everything bagel in yogurt form. It’s really good and surprising. I’ve been loving it so far! The only thing I don’t love is that it’s more like confetti-style granola, instead of a nice chunky granola, but I didn’t want to add flax egg or apple sauce to bind stuff together. Plus I was conscious that baking the garlic and onion too long might make it bitter, so confetti-style granola it is.

I now have two jars of this left to eat so I need to get more plain vegan yogurt, but again, definitely not mad about it! I was tempted to give a jar to my neighbours but I thought that maybe a savoury granola was a little too avant-garde for a first impression. Maybe I’ll just make some apple cinnamon scones or cookies instead.

Vegan Everything Bagel Granola

Vegan Everything Bagel Granola | The Viet Vegan
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 cup (385 g) rolled oats
  • 3 tbsp (28 g) poppy seeds
  • 2 tbsp (13 g) dehydrated onion flakes
  • 2 tbsp (21 g) dehydrated minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup (75 g) raw, hulled sunflower seeds
  • 1/4 cup (35 g) raw sesame seeds
  • 2 cups (80 g) puffed rice cereal
  • 1/4 cup (52) vegan butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) maple syrup

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, poppy seeds, dehydrated onion and garlic, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, and puffed rice cereal.
  2. Drizzle melted vegan butter and maple syrup and stir to coat
  3. On a thick baking sheet (ideally with a lip), spread out the mixture and bake for 30 min at 350F (180C), stirring and flipping the mixture halfway through baking.
  4. Once baked, let cool completely on a wire rack, stirring just to let the heat release and so the bottom layer doesn't keep cooking.
  5. Transfer to an airtight container and enjoy with yogurt, soy milk, or over chia seed pudding!

Notes

Use a gluten-free puffed rice cereal and gluten-free certfied oats to make sure this is GF friendly!

My latest YouTube video with my recipe for EZ PZ sourdough bread is live. No need to wait for a levain, no autolyze, and no super wet, sticky dough or gummy bread!
🍞
I've been thoroughly enjoying all this bread and how consistently delicious it has been! Please go give it a watch to hear me wax and wane about bread, or check out the blog post for a video with no talking, only bread πŸ˜‚

Henlo it's been a very busy week on my end but I've been working hard to try to get back up to 2x a week uploads again. So last week I posted two bookish videos and today I posted my sourdough discard chocolate chip cookies!
πŸͺ
Crisp edges, chewy centre, crunchy flakes of @maldonsalt on top...MMM. A perfect way to use up some sourdough discard!

Video is up on the channel, and recipe is on the blogπŸ₯°https://bit.ly/2LilQk3#thevietvegan #thevietveganrecipes #whatveganseat #sourdoughdiscard #sourdough #πŸͺ

[AD] Tis the season for finger food and delicious bites! So many vegan charcuteries tend to be nut-heavy, but for those who are allergic to many things like me, you might enjoy this pizza snack board I created for @whollyveggie with some marinated mushrooms (recipe on the blog), fresh veggies, and olives, and vegan salami to snack on, with pizza sauce to dunk in!
πŸ•
I used the Classic Cheese, Margherita pizzas, and Naked Cauliflower Crust that are frozen and delicious for a snack board. I honestly kind of forgot that they were gluten-free because I love a nice, crisp thin crust and this was tender enough to yield a nice, chewy bite while being golden and crisp!
πŸ•
Find the recipe on my blog, deets on your closest Wholly Veggy retailer on their website, and please tag me and @whollyveggie in your homemade pizza snack boards! I'd love to see how you customize yours :)

Feeling like I got my mojo back! Also coincidentally my cycle ended, so maybe that had something to do with this week of super low energy and negativity πŸ˜‚β£οΈπŸ˜­Today I cleaned out the fridge, treated myself to a schnickers square from @covenhamilton and made some Instant Pot phở because Eddie's been missing @saigonlotustoronto and we haven't been able to go all year (for obvious reasons).You can find the recipe on the blog. I'll put a swipe up link since the link in bio sometimes take a second to populate, or you can use the search bar at the top of my blog! Hope you are all having a relaxing weekend ☺️Instant Pot Phở: http://bit.ly/2DdKATA#thevietvegan #thevietveganrecipes #whatveganseat #veganfoodshare #veganpho #vietvegan #vietnamesefood

A lot of you are celebrating Thanksgiving today, and while this Instant Pot red curry lentil and potato stew is not a Thanksgiving recipe, I wish you all the best this weekend and kindly remind you that Thanksgiving has a lot of colonial, traumatic and genocidal origins of Indigenous peoples across North America.
πŸ‚
Eddie loves Thanksgiving food (I mostly like stuffing/dressing and mashed potatoes haha) so I understand that nostalgia and love for Thanksgiving fare, but I hope you also take this time to continue your education in Indigenous history, culture and how the exploitation and trauma still affects Indigenous cultures and peoples today.
πŸ‚
I always worry I'm being like a bummer to remind you of this year after year, but I'm on my own journey of education and unlearning the history we were erroneously taught and all the convenient gaps that didn't tell the whole story. We are all unlearning together.
πŸ‚
And while it is important to learn about the heavy history, I also implore you to appreciate and support Indigenous art and cultures. I recently finished reading Son of a Trickster by Eden Robinson and I have many more books by Indigenous authors on my to-read list!
πŸ‚
Enjoy the time with your loved ones (hopefully very safely, and hopefully you've quarantined before seeing each other). It can be hard to deny our families who have varying levels of concern, but know that the precautions you take now show the people you love and the communities we're in how much you care. Virtual celebrations aren't quite the same but are a nice stand-in for being alone.
πŸ‚
Also fyi this is an Instant Pot red curry lentil and potato stew I shared last week. On YouTube and the blog! https://bit.ly/3nCsQWm

I feel like it's no suprise to anyone that my favourite colour is green and that this green ramen is an herbaceous, vibrant way to eat your greens!
πŸ’š
PLUS I use peas in the sauce to add some lean, green protein so you don't feel hungry again in 20 minutes like you would if you just ate a pack of instant noodles πŸ˜‚
πŸ’š
Recipe is linked in the bio, although it might take a sec to repopulate but it's also in my Asian recipe highlight (although it's not really Asian... it's just green saucy noods but my regular recipe highlight is getting too long πŸ˜…)

Inari pockets with vegan crab salad from my last hiking vlog πŸ±πŸŒ³πŸ‚ some of y'all might remember that this package of tofu pockets was similar to the package I have bought before and I realized too late that they had clam and oyster extract in the seasoning.
🍁
Because I was going on a hike with a few omnis, I figured it was worth just using it anyway to feed them so it didn't go to waste, and that way Eddie and I didn't have to eat it all on our own. This dilemma can be controversial, and I've had people (well, one persistent person) hate on me for drinking a can of Arizona Iced Tea after I bought it and realized too late that it had honey in it.
🍁
Y'all, being vegan is point blank a privilege. Choosing what to eat, being informed enough to want to choose vegan, having access to fruits and vegetables that don't cost $$$$, having time to cook, having the time to LEARN how to cook, it is all overlapping privileges that enable any of us to eat vegan. Throwing food away because of a mistake you made even though it is perfectly edible is not helping the animals (and it is so wasteful!)
πŸ‚
Obviously in this case, it was just extract and not actually pieces of meat, dairy, or egg, so it was easier for me to eat it without trying to think about it. And honestly, I'm unsure if I would be able to eat anything non-vegan without getting sick (because I got hives after eating the tofu pockets πŸ™ƒ), but it's nuanced and eating a non-vegan product you bought by accident doesn't make you a bad person. It doesn't discount your veganism. You simply learn from it and keep trucking on.
🍁
Anyway, I explain this in the video but have a watch it you want to see how I made the inari and the beautiful trees on the hike 😁#thevietvegan #thevietveganrecipes https://youtu.be/aBY97WhZCw4 #inarisushi #whatveganseat

I've been eating this nearly every day for the past four days πŸ˜‚ bΓ‘nh hỏi thα»‹t nΖ°α»›ng chay! I've been meaning to develop a nem nΖ°α»›ng chay recipe to go along with this but this week was not the week haha.

Did anyone else grow up eating platters upon platters of bΓ‘nh hỏi at long weekend parties and family gatherings? I swear these take up less space in my body than actual noodles because I can always eat an alarming amount πŸ˜‚
