tofu salad

Jamie Oliver’s nightmare

As Kyle and I attempt to empty our fridge and freezer before moving, I have discovered both the pros & cons of pre-packaged meals.  Pro:  Mindless, easy prep (box –> plate? even a caveman Kyle can do that) Con: Stipation (where the greens at, yo?) Ok, we aren’t eating ONLY thawed sh!t… I still had some odds and ends that I pulled together for a salad, which included the raw One Lucky Duck Rosemary quackers I bought last week. I sampled a few with hummus and they were pretty tasty.  My only issue was that… Read more >

Peace out February, you won’t be missed

Thanks for all the positive feedback on my OpenSky shop!  I have a ton more in the works, so I’ll keep you guys in the know.    I had an accident with my froth this morning.  Disregard the mess, it tasted awesome. Bride mag + apple = bridapple.  Sounds like a horse food.  Ah well.  Lunch was a toasty sando with roasted red pepper hummus and greek yogurt-i-fied tofu “turkey” spread.

Vegan “egg salad”

Alternate titles for this dish include: Eggless salad Vegan slaw salad Orange you glad it’s not egg salad Ok, so clearly no eggs were used in this recipe, but I swear you’d never know if you tasted it.  Not only does this recipe take minimal time and effort, but it is very versatile, it can be eaten in a sandwich, on a bed of lettuce, or plain.  Ingredients – 1/2 cup silken tofu – 1/2 cup shredded carrots (if you have a juicer, use carrot pulp) – 1/2 cup cabbage (or coleslaw mix) – 1… Read more >
