<jkmccullough@ucdavis.edu> This is from Martha  Rose Shulman's "Gourmet
Vegetarian Feasts", one of my favorite veg  (not vlf but easily
adaptable) cookbooks. BTW, soybeans are one of  the higher fat legumes.
The book doesn't give the fat content of this  recipe, and I don't have
the software to figure it out myself. There  is no added fat in this
recipe, and it appears to meet list  guidelines in my opinion. However,
given the tone of the list lately,  I'm actually a bit hesitant to post
it, but I'll give it a try  because some people may like to try it (it
really is a very good and  adaptable recipe).  Step 1: Soak soybeans
overnight in water. In the morning, grind them  1 cup at a time in a
blender with the onion, adding enough water to  cover. Place soybeans
in a very large saucepan, at least twice their  volume. Add enough
water to cover by 2 inches and bring mixture  slowly to a boil. Add
salt, reduce heat, and cover. Simmer 1 to 1-1/2  hours, or until the
liquid is absorbed (A thin layer may stick to the  bottom of the pan,
but it will come off easily with soaking).  Step 2: In large heavy
bottomed frying pan, saute onion and garlic in  a couple of tablespoons
of water until tender. Add boullion cubes and  mash with the back of a
spoon, then add tomato juice, Worchestershire  sauce and soy sauce, and
cook together a few minutes over medium  heat. Add soybeans and herbs.
Stir together and cook, uncovered, over  a medium flame until almost
dry, about 40 minutes. Stir from time to  time to prevent sticking.
Remove from heat. This can be used to  replace ground beef in many
dishes, such as spaghetti sauce, tacos,  and casseroles.  NOTE: This
recipe is very forgiving. I have made it before without the
Worchestershire, soy sauce, boullion cubes, and using stewed tomatos
for the tomato juice and it turned out just fine. If you are  concerned
about sodium, you may wish to try nutritional yeast instead  of the
boullion.  FATFREE DIGEST V96 #120  From the Fatfree Vegetarian recipe
