Ok, so this is a nod to The Fighter, but I had a really tough time with this title. I was stumped. All I could come up with was The Fry-ter, so I could have done something fried, but I was bored with that. So instead I based my dish on "Irish" Micky Ward, the retired professional boxer and real-life person on whom the film is based.
There are any number of vegan Irish Stew recipes out there, but none of those really inspired me like this recipe from Fat Free Vegan Kitchen for a vegan Corned Beef & Cabbage, a good ol' Irish-American dish if ever there was one.
I used the Lightlife Steak-Style Strips as suggested by Susan, and followed the rest of her recipe as instructed except for the substition of 1 Tbsp. of Annie's Horseradish Mustard instead of the dry mustard/horseradish combo, because I almost always have horseradish mustard on hand. The recipe was very easy to make and had so many layers of great flavors. I served it over some mashed sweet potatoes with dill, and with the savory gravy from the recipe, this was a perfectly delicious, very comforting winter dish. With St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner this is a dish you should definitely keep in mind.
