Sunday Tofu Caesar Salad Totally gonna be a regular from now on.  Easy peasy and deeeelish. Monday Cabbage & Green Chickpea Curry with brown rice Kyle requested this.  He wanted cabbage specifically.  Turns out, cabbage is cheap.  The other ingredients were things we had on hand already – including frozen green chickpeas (365 brand) and carrots. I made a slurry of sauce with the same curry paste I used here (Patak’s brand) with plain greek yogurt (Chobani 2%).   Then I added the veg and waited for the cabbage to wilt. Served it up over… Read more >

Trail mix pancakes

Look what Mr. Savory requested for breakfast! Kyle was really proud of his idea for trail mix pancakes. He wants full credit for this breakfast concept (even though I made them), so if you’ve seen these before just keep it to yourself.  😉 I made the batter the night before (leaving the trail mix out) and in the morning breakfast was pretty much ready to go. Trail Mix Pancakes [yields ~10-14 small pancakes] Ingredients: 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour 1 tbsp baking powder 2 tbsp sugar 1/2 tsp salt 1 1/4 cup almond milk… Read more >

Color me orange

Here’s a list of my favorite foods that are orange: sweet potatoes butternut squash carrots …and now this dip. I actually set out to re-make my creamy dijon cashew sauce.  I wanted a nut free version – something lighter.  It turned out quite nicely for a low fat food.  Actually it turned out great for any kind of food. And now I’m pretty much putting it on everything.  Especially other orange things. You can’t have too much B carotene, right?  Right. Tangy Tofu Dip [vegan, gluten free] Ingredients: 1/2 aseptic pack lite silken tofu 1/4… Read more >

39 week check-in

I finally got my iPhone’s playlists ready – I don’t know how it took me this long, but I just synched my favorite mellow music to my device.  Lots of enya, classical stuff, and other soothing songs (ie Buddha Lounge Ensemble).  I have different tunes too, but I feel most serene when I’m listening to tranquil types of music.  Hopefully that’ll help during contractions.    And since I’m on the subject of my iPhone, check out all the baby related apps that now dominate the screen.  Geez!  I used to barely have two pages of… Read more >
