Although I like the taste of meat in feijoada, I’ve never been a huge fan of the meat itself, particularly not the kinds of cuts of meat usually put in feijoada. So my feijoada usually include only the cleanest and leanest cuts of meat. What I like about feijoada is actually the mix of rice, beans, farofa & couve (collard greens/kale). So it’s not really a bit stretch for me to imagine vegan feijoada being just as good. It’s a good meal for a week day since it’s just as simple as it is to make beans.

The difference in this plate is that I didn’t have any rice so I had to use quinoa instead It was very yummy and replaced the rice rather well…
