What are you craving?

^ Sounds lovely.:)

I was watching a show yesterday where someone was eating a hearts of palm salad and I thought I haven't tasted that before so I might have to find a vegan recipe.
 
I had hearts of palm for the first time, a few years ago, on one of my trips to South Carolina, and it was so good. But when I bought it, once I was back home, it was not good. I was disappointed.

Fresh? I've never had fresh, though they sell them at the Asian grocery.
Seeing this reminded me I have half a jar that I used for hot/sour soup in the fridge. it's right at the spot where things freeze, so it's conviniently frozen

Same here. I have only found tinned ones.
 
I want lots of leafy greens. I'm going to have a big salad for lunch. :D
I have a big container of mixed greens. I really want a new dressing-i always have balsamic, but thinking maybe trying french. and no, I don't want to make my own!

LOL. I just like the taste of my homemade dressing better. :D Mmmm, mixed greens. I'm going to have more tomorrow.

doggone it! My tastes have kinda been changing and I want something different on salad-but I don't know what. most bottled french are vegan right? I never used to use that, I liked ranch, but now I don't know
I should try something healthy, or that soy ginger one I used to like. Or sweet onion!
 
How do you do dressing? I've gotten proportions wrong too many times :rolleyes:
Sometimes I will make a single serving with, say, a couple of tablespoons of oil and maybe a tablespoon of vinegar with Italian seasoning and garlic powder and a pinch of salt. Other times I will follow recipes from the Betty Crocker cookbook. I love their Italian and French dressings, though the French is mustard-based and not the orange kind found in the stores. It's really good. For the Italian, it's basically a cup of oil (I typically cut that to three-quarters of a cup because I like it more vinegary), a quarter cup of vinegar and a quarter-cup of lemon juice (I like to use fresh, but the kind in the bottle works, too) plus spices and some salt, pepper and a bit of sugar, maybe like a teaspoon. Sometimes I skip the sugar because it's more tangy that way. The spices include oregano, garlic powder, dry mustard and onion powder along with a few others. I think paprika is in it, too.
 
That sounds good! I found my dry mustard!
You know I just found Betty Crocker has a vegan recipe section on their website?

Nice. There is a vegan cookbook based on Betty Crocker recipes called Betty Goes Vegan. It's full of comfort food recipes. My mom got it for me a year or so ago. :)
