VB quiche, onion version with roast butternut pumpkin added.

We're having a friend over tonight and he's pretty picky, but oh well. I'm sure we'll enjoy it:

BBQ seitan sandwiches with vinegar slaw (using steamed white seitan from VV and backyard BBQ sauce from Veganomicon)
balsamic chickpea salad
Dessert: MUG BROWNIES

I need to buy some buns for the sandwiches tonight.

green beans over potato/carrot/yam puree

damn!

finally making that asparagus bean quiche in vcon

I have a lot to do tonight (like getting ready for my youngest son's birthday, which is Friday, but we're celebrating tomorrow because it's a day off work for me and school for my oldest), so tonight's dinner will be one of my super-simple cop-out meals like Boca chick'n patty sandwiches with spinach salads.

lots of extra tofu at our house, which means cripsy ginger-teryaki tofu, broccoli and carrot stir-fry, and curry tofu "egg"rolls with spicy pineapple chili dipping sauce!

Had beefy bacon burgers from 500 Vegan Recipes, in homemade buns with red onion, tomato, cucumber, jalapeños, ketchup and guacamole. Yeah.

Best meal I've ever made, bar none. It was like a dream.


GET IT IN! I've only recently discovered the glory of using pineapple in savory applications, and o, Lard, it is glorious.

We're having tofu tacos tonight. I'm trying to think of something creative to do with the pair of avos I have, like some crazy whipped avo-cream, but I'm sure we'll settle for chopping them up with some tomatoes and eating them with a spoon.

@stephanie
savory + pineapples are my jam! pizza, stir-fry, mock chicken salad, tropical spaghetti, they seriously make everything better!

Backyard BBQ Tofu from "Veganomicon"
Fluffy Mashed Potatoes from "Thanksgiving in One Hour"
Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Lemon (something I just threw together).

Seitan piccata over mashed potatoes for me. I was suckered into the 8 lb bag of potatoes at the grocery store last weekend and I'm trying my best to use them up before they go bad.

Seitan, potato, carrot, and pearl onion stew.

More grilled mojo tofu burritos. Guac & chips. Second attempt to make steamed artichokes.

Scrambled tofu, spinach, bacon bits and bread.

Tonight's probably boring leftover pasta marinara, but last night was glorious! I made the tofu mole tacos I was talking about. Cocoa mole sauce over hickory smoked tofu, grilled portabella strips, a diced orange bell pepper, and some black beans. We piled that into whole wheat tortillas and topped it with some Tofutti BTSC, and Adam made guac to eat on the side with chips.

Holy crepe. Amazing.

making pizza bagels (bagel thins, yummy marinara, cheddar daiya, field roast italian sausage) so we will be done with this seemingly neverending supply of bagel thins!

Yesterday - mushroom risotto with chickpea cutlets

cupcakes!!

slow pho from fresh from the vegetarian slow cooker. the broth is simmering away with spices, and tonight i just have to cook rice noodles and chop up toppings. it smells so good already.

jerk seitan - i was in the mood for it earlier, i'm not really now, but i'm not really in the mood for much come dinner time lately, so whatever. (that sounds sad! i usually love jerk seitan. alas.)

Seitan pepperoni pizza with onion, 'shrooms, sun dried tomatoes and spinach.

blueberry pie. because all i had to do was cut a piece. i'm heading out the door in a minute. but i'll comeback and eat nachos. then homemade ice cream and dates with almond butte.r

Tofu scramble with salsa
Toast with EB

I'm so happy right now

YRR mustard crusted seitan for the first time with roasted brussels sprouts on the side.
