So last night I made the Great Smoky Mountain cheeze and used it for the grilled cheezy sandwiches. The sandwiches were out of this world - even my omni husband said they were delicious - and the cheeze itself is, hands-down, the best vegan cheese I have ever tried. I made the old-fashioned tomato soup to go with the sandwiches, and it was really good too. This cookbook rocks!

Aaand I know what I'm making next. This sounds amazing!

P.S. On another note, someone pointed out a typo to me today on the scramble recipe. It should say 14 ounces of tofu.

Aha! I thought so. I was planning on making the scramble next, and was going to put in a whole package of tofu despite what the recipe said.

And, cupcake, your cookbook is forking awesome! I cooked from it again last night - homestyle veggie noodle soup - and it was delicious. We had an omni friend over for dinner, and he said it was the best "chicken" noodle soup he had ever tasted.

I put this book on 'hold' at the local library and can't wait to try it out! If it's all that everyone says it is, I will be ordering my very own copy soon! That Smoky Mountain Cheeze sounds awesome.

Same here. That write up on the cheese is enough to entice me to make it this week. I could go for a grilled cheese and tofurkey deli slice sandwich!

Thanks Zhenni! That soup is also yummy subbing 1/2 cup uncooked long grain white rice for the noodles, for a "Chicken" and Rice Soup.

This is good to know as I have been eyeing that cheese for a while now.

I just ordered this. I can't wait to try that cheeze!

I'm eating the Cheezy Mac right now (with the suggestion of gf pasta and added Daiya). It's so smoky and delicious! I also threw in some collards and spinach. Who's about to get the -itis?!

I just got my tester copy! Holy crepe, it's gorgeous. I can't wait to make the best English muffins of all time again. And Julie's seitan recipes are perfect.

You guys should all make the Double Chocolate Strawberry Pie, especially since (California) strawbs are now available! It is incredible. In testing I made it without the liquer, but I made it for my bakesale with some blackberry liquer (my liquor store didn't have strawberry) and it was AMAZING. It's also super easy!

All of my cookbooks are in pristine condition. I like the idea of making notes in cookbooks, but I can't do it. The very idea of writing in my books makes me cringe.

I was on the fence with this book, but you all have convinced me to get it!

Me too, but I use the little 2" post-it's for my notes.

Same - ordered mine yesterday. Really looking forward to it.

Mmm, the smoky tomato dressing is so good. I'm in love with this book. It's so pretty.

dimsimkitty · **Posted:** Wed Apr 06, 2011 1:35 am

This book is on its way. Hee. I am not spending money on new cookbooks at the moment. However, my mother was dreaming of diner food, so I mentioned if she wanted to order this for me I would cook her anything she wants from it. I didn't actually expect her to, but the next say she told me it was onher way. :D Now hurry up my pretty and fly across the ocean to me!

I have this right now from the library and wanted to renew ... but <sob> someone else has a hold put on it, so it will not renew. I'm going to have a hard time getting it to release from my hand into the return bin tonight.

I'm so excited! I had a gift card and I just bought this book along with a bunch of baking supplies that I've been wanting. I think the first thing I make will be that smokey cheese! It looks so good!

dimsimkitty · **Posted:** Sun Apr 17, 2011 1:13 am

My copy arrived the other day, but I've been too tired from work to go through it properly yet. I'll have a better go at it this afternoon and see what I will be making first! It's a really nice book, too.
