VEGAN ROPA VIEJA
This is a vegan version of the Cuban classic meat dish. I wound up using King Oyster Mushrooms that come out looking a lot like shredded beef. 
 
Ingredients:
8 King Oyster Mushrooms   
1 large Onion   
2 cups of chopped Tomatoes (or 1 can of Diced Tomatoes)   
4 cloves Garlic   
2 cups Vegetable Broth   
1/2 tbsp Cumin
1 tbsp dried Thyme
1 tbsp dried Oregano
1 Bay Leaf
1  cup sliced Green Manazanilla Olives with Pimentos   
3 Bell Peppers  (any color)  
1/4 cup of Capers  
2 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
1⁄4 cup roughly chopped Cilantro
Salt and Black Pepper to taste

Directions:

Clean your mushrooms and shred them using a fork. Shred them all into fine strands. 
 
Finely chop the garlic. Finely slice the onion in half rings.

Put the shredded mushrooms into a crock pot.  Add the onions, cumin, thyme, oregano, garlic, bay leaf, tomatoes and vegetable broth. Cook for 6 hours. 

After 6 hours, add olives, peppers, capers, and vinegar. Cook until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 2 hours. Stir in cilantro before serving.

I like to serve mine on a bed of fresh greens.

Make it a complete meal by serving it with black beans and rice.
