Hi there!

Today I present to you two vegan recipes – stuffed tomatoes and peppers and sauerkraut with rice, since I had some rice left over from the first dish.

I hope you’ll like my method and try both of them at home!

Preparation

Step 1

Wash the tomatoes.

Step 2

Cut the top of each veggie and save it. Wash the peppers inside and out and clean the seeds. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat up the oil and sautee the onion. After it turns translucent, add the rice and let it fry for a while.

Step 4

In the meantime, scoop out the meat from the tomatoes and chop it.

Step 5

Add to the rice and add 1.5 cup of water, the vegetarian paste and raisins. Turn the heat down and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes.

Step 6

Add the fresh or dried herbs and start stuffing the peppers and tomatoes and arrange in a baking dish.

Step 7

Peel the carrots and potatoes, toss in some olive oil and salt and pepper and fill up the empty spots in the baking dish.

Step 8

Add some olive oil – just a few drops on top of each stuffed veggie and put the tops over. Bake until cooked, for about 25 minutes at 375F.

Bonus dish:

I had some rice leftover, so I made another traditional Bulgarian dish, which we usually have at Christmas. Since fermented veggies are very good for your health, I always have a package of sauerkraut in my fridge.

I add the rice to the sauerkraut, mix in some paprika and add more raisins and 2 tbsp of olive oil and bake it until the rice is ready.
