This is one hearty vegan stew! Made with just a few ingredients, this is an easy one-pot recipe that goes great with a side of rice.
Vegan Scallop Cabbage Stew:
🍲 Lily’s Vegan Pantry Imitation Scallop
🍲 Sliced carrots
🍲 Sliced cucumbers
🍲 Sliced napa cabbage
🍲 1 tbsp of satay sauce

Once the veggies are mostly cooked, add the scallops from earlier and let everything simmer together. Bring to a boil and you’re done! Garnish with cilantro, and a drizzle of sesame oil.

Have you tried the dumpling lasagna dish yet? We made a vegan version using our own teriyaki chicken and it’s as good as it looks. The best part is you can switch up the fillings and make it your own. Just grab some dumpling wrappers and start layering!

Not all vegetable ramen are actually vegan. What “vegetable” flavor ramen means is that they contain more vegetables and no meat, but the flavoring can still be meat-based. For example, a common ingredient in many vegetable ramen is bonito-flakes which is made from fish.
You don’t have to worry about that here at Lily’s. We vet our products to make sure it doesn’t contain any sneaky animal products while keeping its savory flavor.
