Mediterranean Couscous Salad
Let’s see if I can do this blogging thing again . . . after all, it’s been nearly 2-1/2 years since I’ve posted a recipe. Sorry for the long absence; life got busy, I suppose. To update you, we moved from Colorado to Brooklyn in March of last year, the twenty-one-year-old just finished his junior…
Tofu Fries
These are inspired by Home on the Range and I just had to try them. You can use any kind of seasoning you choose and Dale, of Home on the Range, lists several different spices you could use. These were super crispy on the outside and chewy, soft on the inside. I served these with…
Chili-Lime Corn on the Cob
I love this recipe for corn on the cob—the perfect combo of chili powder and lime zest. The original recipe, from Guy Fieri, calls for leaving the husks on, but I usually just use foil–a lot easier, but I’ll give directions for leaving the husks on, too. Corn on the cob also has it’s health…
Southwestern Tofu Burgers
This recipe is from Colleen Patrick-Goudreau’s The Vegan Table and she recommends freezing the tofu for at least 48 hours and thawing 6-8 hours before using. It apparently makes a more chewy, enjoyable burger and I think she’s right! They were delicious. Incidentally, I’ve read in other places that freezing tofu before making patties, nuggets…
Feast On This!
Were We Born Omnivores? There has been recent debate going on via my local newspaper about the vegetarian/vegan diet that has got me all in a twitter, even prompting yours truly to get in on it. Among many arguments, one is that humans were born omnivores, others say, humans were never meant to chew and…
Baked Tofu and Roasted Asparagus Pasta Salad
This is a flavorful salad that is ideal for those summer get togethers, both served cold or warmed up. Roasting the asparagus only takes 10 minutes and is perfect in this salad. INGREDIENTS: 16-oz farfalle, cooked, drained and rinsed in cold water 1 pkg Westsoy Garlic and Herb baked tofu, cubed 1 red bell pepper,…
Breaded Seitan Nuggets
Kids will love these! These resemble chicken nuggets, just not with the uh. . .nasty chicken odds and ends and in betweens. I served these with vegan ranch and BBQ sauce. So delish! And don’t worry about not getting protein. Per serving, seitan has 18-22 grams of protein and .5 grams of saturated fat—now when…
“Bacon” Wrapped Roasted Asparagus
I usually don’t mind putting a little work into a dish, especially when I know it’s worth it. These take about 15 minutes or so to prepare, but you won’t be sorry. There are a few different ways to secure the “bacon” to the asparagus: I broke toothpicks in half and secured each end of…
Balsamic Strawberries
Wow, talk about a smorgasbord of flavors! I was very intrigued when I saw the recipe—balsamic vinegar, sugar and pepper, so I had to try it. These are delicious by themselves, but spooned over some soy vanilla ice cream is absolutely to die for!! Great as a quick summertime dessert. INGREDIENTS: 16 oz fresh strawberries,…
Feast On This!
“I Can’t Believe It’s Vegan!” Who knew that Doritos makes a vegan tortilla chip?! In fact, you might be surprised that several products in grocery stores are actually vegan. There were lots of products that I often avoided, assuming they weren’t vegan, but man, was I shocked. Duncan Hines actually has 3 vegan frostings! Ok,…
Easy, Creamy Pasta Salad
Like the title says, this pasta salad is easy and creamy, but also packed full of flavors. With summer quickly approaching, there are so many options for fresh veggies that would be perfect to add like cherry tomatoes and avocados. INGREDIENTS: 14-oz pasta (I used whole wheat penne) 3 large green onion, chopped 1 bell…
