That is a great idea for the crumbs! I save mine from each bag and have them in the fridge. The last time, I made tacos with the crumbs, but I like the loaf idea.
Supper/Dinner Time! What's on the menu ?
- Thread starter shyvas
- Start date
I get a green tea at the bulk store (they have an amazing selection) - Bancha - it is a bit less potent than Sencha and yet so many great healthy components - we stretch it by making one large mug and then refilling it until it is almost clear.
Last night we made out aglio y olio a bit differently - garlic/chili peppers/mushrooms with linguini and then chopped fresh parsley and arugula and mixed it in - cherry tomatoes and olives on the side instead of mixed in.

I put my crumbs in my microwaved oatmeal and also in my noodley soups.

Last night was a deli salad sandwich. Too hot to cook. Ordered a sourdough roll, all the fixings with extra tomato , mustard and avocado. She gave me $3 discount because of no meat or cheese! 
The crumbs are perfect for burgers, or chili, or maybe your zucchini cakes? I failed at trying that recipe
Loaves always come out too mushy for me, unless seitan based
I'm thinking of something with the gyro style seitan I made besides all sandwiches. Mostly because I want to make another seitan
Like layered with a bechamel sauce and potatoes.?

I ground my soy curls down a bit finer in a food processor first before re-hydrating. For the loaf I used some panko bread crumbs, a bit of flour, and Just Egg to bind it together, which worked amazingly well. It actually held together better than my soy curl Gyro/Donair loaf I made a while back. That was more crumbly than I had hoped, where this had almost the exact consistency of real meatloaf. It slices nicely for leftover meatloaf sandwiches, which is the true test.
I also sauteed the soy curl crumbs in some vegan butter to add both fat and some additioanl flavour. During the saute I also added a little bit of Marmite, molasses, and more beefless stock to moisten the meat and add the flavour I wanted. It also gave it a more authentic dark colour. This is a simplified version of what I did, as I also added herbs, glaze, etc.

I needed comfort food so I had spaghetti with ketchup. I also ate some veggies tho'.
I had vegan Burger King for lunch and a Swedish Glace ice cream at the beach!
I think I might have something more healthy tonight. Chopped celery, bell peppers, carrots, cucumbers and cherry tomatoes with houmous.

Again I did something without thinking it through! I made lentil & chickpea stew, with orzo, in the Instant Pot. It needs 6 min cook time, and then about 10 npr, so, not wanting the orzo to get overcooked, as it would (and has) I started the lentils with the water and spices to boil, then added the orzo and the carrots and celery, then put the lid on and set pressure for 4 min. Well, the orzo came out just right, but the carrots and the celery were still firm . I'd never had issue with those needing less time, just did not think 
.
Not real happy about this, hoping letting it sit will soften them both, but I really do wish they were soft
This is how my chili from dry beans--I bring the soaked beans to a boil before adding the veggies and the lid--but then it's 15 min pressure.

I may just have a non-dairy yogurt. I ate weird again today so I feel like I need something light. No cookies, though, so that’s a plus!
The stew is phenomenal! Always is, even though I always play with the spices--this time used Penzeys Northwest Fire blend exclusively.
Topped with soy yogurt
I ate the carrots at the beginning, kinda like they were a side dish
A bit later, after it chills, will be having my smoked gouda with crackers!

I am probably just going to boil up some rice and red lentils with tofu, onions, garlic and carrots, with salt and pepper.
edit: I am also going to put in tomato cubes
