Pita! Pita!

I made pitas for the first time.  They turned out super tasty and I will definitely make them again.  No need to buy any from the store from now on.  The boys loved them.  I didn’t roll them out perfectly round.  They are more uterus shaped. Oops!  We had them for dinner with our falafel, … Continue reading »

Nacho Daddy!

For dinner tonite, we had nachos.  Josh aka Daddy made them.  I messed up my LCL  in my knee, so I was resting, icing, and elevating it.  Good times.  I explained how to make the quinoa “meat”, and the chickpea chorizo.  The chickpea chorizo is a variation of a recipe my friend Tom made.  We topped … Continue reading »

Hot Dogs!!!!!

Well kind of, maybe, not really.  For dinner this evening we had homemade apple sage sausages with saurkraut in buns, with a side of roasted potatoes.  It was quite tasty.  The apple sage sausage recipe was something I created a while back and they are a real winner.  The boys love them.  I like making … Continue reading »

Pie for dinner….

Well, not really pie.  It was quiche.  I made a delicious quiche for dinner. I had some leftover vegan swiss cheese I had made last week, some mushrooms that needed to be used, I added some walnuts, tofu, onion, garlic, and spices.  Pureed it together, made a homemade crust, and “ta da!”, quiche.  When I … Continue reading »

Cuban for dinner…..

For dinner tonite, I made tacos.  Early in the morning, I fired up a pot of black beans to accompany our dinner.  I found a recipe a while back for Cuban tacos and decided to do a vegan version.  The tacos were marinated and sliced portabellos, topped with a mango/avocado salsa, and homemade tortillas.  I also … Continue reading »

Curry curry…..

For dinner tonite, I made curry.  I used the potatoes from the other night’s dinner, added some chickpeas, cilantro, chives, and spices.  It was quite tasty. I also made the curried cabbage dish I made a while back.  It was a big hit, Josh and I really liked it, so it was definitely worth repeating.  The cabbbage recipe … Continue reading »

Hot Pastrami…..

On Monday, I made a vegan pastrami recipe.  Josh had mentioned he wanted some vegan lunchmeat, so I decided to create a pastrami for him.  It tasted amazing.  When Josh got home and tried it, he was very impressed.  I am perfecting the recipe even more so, no sharing it yet. I also made sourdough … Continue reading »

Bread and pasta….

I love homemade bread and I love pasta.  For dinner I made a baked pasta dish, I stirred in some homemade cashew ricotta, mixed in a little marinara, and topped it with more marinara. Oh, and I also added some homemade vegan pepperoni.  It was baked and served with some homemade bread. Now the bread … Continue reading »

Waffles and Tacos…..

not together, but I’m sure they would be.  For breakfast today, I made banana/cinnamon sugar waffles.  They are a favorite around here and quite tasty.  Mmmm. As I mentioned before, it is turning warm here.  Early summer in the South.  So, we went to the dinosaur museum, a favorite of our youngest.  He loves dinosaurs, … Continue reading »

This evening we had leftovers for dinner. And I have no idea what posessed me to want to bake.  It is getting hot here, very hot and it’s not even May.  Oy! So, this evening, I made a treat for the boys, mint chocolate chip coconut cookies, and English Muffins.  It was my first time making … Continue reading »
