VeganMoFo: Day 31

October 31, 2008

October 31 is not only Halloween, but also the last day of VeganMoFo. October was definitely a fun and informative month for me. If you had told me before VeganMoFo began that I would not only make homemade vegan cheese, but that it would be delicious and I would like it, I probably wouldn’t have [...]

Malt Shop Inspired Grub…Veganized

October 29, 2008

One of the many things I have learned this month is that vegan food can just as easily be indulgent as healthy. It would probably be better for my waistline if it was always the latter, but alas a girl cannot survive on greens and sprouts alone (although I do quite like both). It was [...]

Pineapple with Mixed Vegetables (Bor Law Chau Jop Choi)

October 27, 2008

One of my favorite dishes to get when out at a Thai restaurant is the Cashew Nut rice plate which usually includes tofu, bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, carrots, pineapples, and scallions in a special sauce topped with cashew nuts. I always enjoy the beautiful assortment of vegetables it includes and the sweet and savory combination [...]

Green “Eggs” and “Ham” Tofu Quiche

October 27, 2008

With the final days of VeganMoFo falling away I’ve been trying to make every meal count by trying more adventurous vegan recipes.  Adventurous recipes for me are those that I am most skeptical will be as good as their non-vegan counterparts (i.e. quiche or cheeze) or those items where I would be more likely to [...]

Hodgepodge Pumpkin Soup

October 22, 2008

After sharing what’s in my freezer and reading about Happy Herbivore’s Pantry Challenge I decided to make a dish inspired by things I had on hand. I don’t center my dishes around my pantry and freezer often enough so this was a good, resourceful challenge for me. Like Happy Herbivore I settled on a soup. [...]

10 days left in VeganMofo!

October 22, 2008

Including today there are only 10 days left in VeganMofo. I’m not sure where the time, and fall in general, has gone. Before starting I had a slight fear I might exhaust all the recipes I wanted to try in the first couple of weeks, but that has instead turned out to not be the [...]

What’s in my freezer…

October 22, 2008

Thanks again to Crafty Vegan for tagging me to share what’s in my freezer. Not only was it fun, but it was also informative. I tend to stick a lot of things in my freezer so I wasn’t 100% sure of what I would find. I also want to remind my wonderful readers that I [...]

As Blissful as Play-Doh…

October 20, 2008

I’m a sucker for a good pasta dish, so when I read about Vegan Dad’s Pumpkin Pasta with Easy Sage Alfredo it immediately jumped to the top of my “to make” list. Homemade noodles in a rich and creamy sauce? Yes please! This recipe was the perfect excuse to get my neglected pasta maker down [...]

The Start of a New Week

October 20, 2008

Unfortunately I didn’t get a chance to post pictures of my freezer or my cooking creations this weekend as my camera battery picked another convenient time to die.  I will say though that this weekend was all about pumpkin and I am looking forward to posting reviews of the two pumpkin-starring recipes I tried this [...]
