Supper/Dinner Time! What's on the menu ?

I think it may depend on the tahini as I have never had bitter.

I just think it has a weird flavour, to me anyway.;)

I like the bold flavor, I guess. I can eat it right out of the jar. :D

The first time I ate it (except when it was in houmous) I took a big spoonful from the jar and nearly spat it out.:laughing:
 
I'm going to have barbecued tofu, sautéed kale and steamed broccoli with a small salad topped with Italian dressing.

ETA: I have changed my mind about the broccoli. I decided to split the tofu block into two dishes, so I used the broccoli for sesame-ginger tofu. I will have pickled beets tonight instead of the broccoli with the barbecued tofu.

last night we had burgers... dropped by the grocery store for just a few things and discovered that 12-1 pm is a really good time to shop as there was no line outside or inside the store... so while there I felt like we needed to have burgers so picked up some premade black bean burgers and some buns, it was very good, had two each with a side of potato chips/crisps

I've had this recipe since first buying soy curls. Now that i'm at the end of a 12 pound box, I sorted the strips from the crushed. There is a lot of crushed at the bottom- which is perfectly ok.
I took a lot of liberties with this. It's basically saute veggies, puree tofu with water that I added Better than boullion no beef, washed out my dijon mustard jar, season and mix everything.
Still baking, but I bet it's gonna be good. I'd love a loaf that wasn't a pasty texture like every bean or lentil recipe, or nut loaf like
I guess you could make one with Beyond Beef, but I wouldn't do that!

I also made soy curl jerky which is like my favorite thing ever!
I add jerk seasoning, galangal, and blackstrap molasses to the mix, and bake at 300 F so some come out crispy, others tender
 
A cabbage slaw ( grated red & white cabbage) with slice avocado with a creamy mustard/lemon/evo dressing plus yeast flakes. 1/2 a pan fried raw soya burger.
A kiwi, raspberry & pineapple fruit salad.
A glass of chardonnay.
 
last night was a ton of veggies (carrots, zucchini, mushrooms, celery, onion, garlic, etc) sauted and I heated up some spaghetti sauce with 2 Gardein meatballs for each, and gnocchi - added the boiled gnocchi to the vegetables then poured the sauce and meatballs on top in the bowl.... nooch of course too (just had some of the leftovers for lunch)

The soy curl crumb loaf is really good! The 12 lb box is a good value, about half of what buying the bags is, but I won't be doing that again any time soon as I don't have a freezer. The bottom has lots of crumbs and this is perfect.
I really hate all the vegan loaves I've had! I don't every say it, but now I can! This one has a great texture

Thanks for the advice, I do have a freezer now and so may consider ordering the larger size. I tend not to use it as often as I could as if I use it then it will be "gone", silly I know but last time I went to the one store that carries it they didn't have any and that was well over a month ago now.

I buy right from Butler. Including the shipping cost the 12 lb box was like $64. There aren't any stores by me that carry them!
Every make the jerky? I could eat the whole pan!
