Grandmas Great Depression Recipe (VEGAN)
Cajun Vegan MeatBalls (VEGAN) Savory cajun meatballs are accompanied by field peas and lima beans in a rich and hearty cajun bean soup. This is one of my grandmother's great depression meals. I remember as a child shelling dried field peas and helping my grandmother put them in a mason jar for winter soups. Keep in mind, you can use whatever beans, peas or vegan meat you like. I chose the meatballs because they are easier to throw into the pot of beans to simmer and cook. I usually cook up dry beans and freeze to make meals like this, but ran out, so I opted for can beans this time. I have gotten ingredients from Aldis or Kroger.
