I don’t remember the recipes for these unfortunately but we made a chickpea curry, some samosas, so indian bread and some indian fried rice.

This is a recipe i came up with randomly. I was making black bean soup and we had a ton of left overs so i made this.

Black Bean Burrito Bake

Layer in a casserole dish:
2 cups of red rice
1 cup black bean soup
1 cup black beans
1 cup salsa
1 cup vegan cheddar
1/4 cup green onions
top with crushed sweet chili heat chips

back at 350F for 25-30 minutes

I made this spinach ceasar salad awhile back and i believe i used the vegan ceasar dressing recipe off of the bunnyfoot blog.

I love making soup and using anything i can find in the kitchen to make it. I unfortunately do not measure much when i do this so here are the basic ingredients that I used to make this soup.

1 32oz can of crushed tomatoes
1 packet of onion soup mix
2 servings of whole wheat couscous (cooked)
1 can of butter beans
about 2 cups of vegetable broth
1 tablespoon of earth balance
1 small onion
1-2 gloves garlic

I sauted the onion and garlic in oil until the onion was soft. Then i added the tomatoes, broth and earth balance. Let cook for 10 minutes. Then add beans, couscous, and onion soup mix. let cook 10 more minutes. serve warm. best if made a day ahead and reheated.

Okay, so there’s defintiely pictures to come. I promise.

At least once a week, Lindsay and I make breakfast food. Sometimes it is actually for breakfast and others it is for lunch or dinner. Either way, it’s my time to make food for her since she usually makes everything else (with my assistance of course!). My breakfast specialty is tofu scrambler and we always have that with a side or two (usually toast and hashbrowns or fake breakfast “meat”).

I don’t use a recipe or anything for the scramble, just add spices and veggies (and sometimes veg*n cheese or bacon) to the mix and go.

Here’s what i used for this batch:

• chopped mushrooms
• diced onions
• diced tomatoes
• veggie spice
• cumin
• turmeric
• curry
• paprika
• salsa
• 1 block of vegetable tofu (FIRM)

and the process:

1. Chop the onions, tomatoes and mushrooms.
2. Fry up the onions and mushrooms in olive oil until the onions are translucent
3. Crumble the block of tofu into the pan
4. Mix in about a cup of salsa
5. Min in a couple of teaspoons of veggie spice for flavour and colour
6. Mix in cumin, curry, paprika, turmeric to taste/smell
7. Make sure everything is mixed well and reduce heat on the frying pan and let it cook for a while to absorb in all the flavours
