Vegan Antipasto Recipes

Steps:

• To make dressing, in a small bowl whisk together oil, vinegar, sugar, mustard, basil, pepper and garlic; set aside. In a large bowl add spinach leafs, garbanzo beans, artichokes, onion, olives and tomatoes; stir gently. Roll up vegan ham slices and cut them into 1 inch pieces. Add to salad. Chop up the vegan pepperoni into small bite size pieces. Add to salad and gently mix together. Let salad chill in refrigerator until ready to eat. Drizzle salad dressing over salad before serving.

Steps:

• For the dressing: Place vinegar in a bowl. Add oil slowly while whisking, then season to taste.
• For the marinade: whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, basil, sea salt and pepper. Marinate the mushrooms and tofu for 5 minutes. Grill the mushrooms, then cut them in quarters. Grill the tofu, then cut into 1-inch pieces.
• To prepare the salad, place all the ingredients into a mixing bowl. Pour dressing onto vegetables and stir gently. Chill salad before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Spread green, red, and yellow peppers, green beans, white onion, garlic, broccoli, cauliflower, celery, and mushrooms onto several baking sheets and drizzle with olive oil; toss lightly to coat.
• Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven until slightly browned and softened, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• While vegetables are roasting, pour ketchup into a large pot over medium heat and stir in tomatoes, white vinegar, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes; stir in roasted vegetables, black olives, green olives, and basil. Simmer until cooked through, about 5 more minutes.
• Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the roasted vegetable mixture into the sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, for 24 hours. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.
