Whatcha Eatin ? - 2018

A pot of Early Grey tea with almond milk. A slice of fruit cake.

A McIntosh apple and a banana.

 

[MadamSarcastra]

Homemade spicy, "cheesy" super-nummy black bean dip with Garden of Eatin' no-salt blue corn chips.

(Rinsed & blended no-salt black beans, evoo, garlic/onion/chipotle powders, cilantro, Mrs. Dash, nooch, & power greens.)

I just finished my first-ever homemade seitan Italian-style sausage (recipe from the Post Punk Kitchen website). I had it on a roll with mustard and chopped red onions. I cannot believe how tasty it was! I won't need to buy the pre-made ones anymore. I'm very excited about these because even though the store-bought ones weren't bad, they never really did it for me. The PPK recipe rocks!

A pot of Early Grey tea with soya milk and a ww, avocado sandwich.

Some pink grapes for dessert.

I bought the bread from Lidl's and it's awful - dry and crumbly. I hate it when a sandwich tastes so awful. Sandwiches make the most perfect lunch if you have tasty bread.

I had another homemade vegan sausage on a roll with mustard and chopped red onions. I could seriously get addicted to these, lol. Another bonus: They are really filling.

Sell them.

A red plum.

Hahaha, I would eat most of the inventory before they got out the door.

Nothing right now... but for lunch I had the last of my homemade "beet burger" mix, modified from a recipe in a burger cookbook, on commercially-baked wheat bread. (I "modified" it because I didn't have a food processor- only a blender- and substituted or omitted some of the ingredients which I didn't have and didn't feel like buying). The texture was a bit too moist- not firm enough- and my electric stove/oven decided to go on the blink while I was making them so I couldn't do the last step where you form the mixture into patties and fry them. But it turned out to be a surprisingly tasty (if weird, violent deep pink black-raspberry-sherbet-looking) sandwich filling, and I already have ideas on how to make them better (like going a bit easier on the beets, and mashing the whole affair instead of trying to blend/pulverize it). I carefully wrote down the recipe as I made it.

You are well organised. I often make up or tweak recipes and don't write anything down.

Super-sloppy-double-whammy-veggie-sammie!



I had one more 5-grain Fold-It, I decided I'd make a large order 'cuz I had just enough sauteed veggies left, one of the new rosemary/olive oil Fold-Its, added red pepper almond "mayo" & Go Veggie shreds & plenty of tomato...

Gonna wrap these up to keep the spillage to a minimum so I can play a game.

Another vegan sausage in a roll, only this time I had Daiya mozzarella and hot sauce on it! Delicious! I have only one left, as the recipe makes just four, and I'm out of vital wheat gluten flour, so I must make a store run because I want to make more of these and freeze them.

It looks like you're on a sausage quest.

LOL, I'm just so thrilled with how they came out. I'm thinking of having them when my I have my girls' weekend with my sister, cousin and friend. I think they might actually eat these. I was thinking of slicing them and frying them in some olive oil. I could serve them with our brunch that I usually make, which includes lemon-blueberry pancakes, home fries, scones and fruit. It's a feast!

That sounds like a nice idea. I prefer to fry or sautée them whole and then cut them up. They taste moister and have less fat in this way.

True, that's a good point.

Leftover cream of vegetable soup. A small granary baguette sandwich.

I made a really nice Spanish chickpea and spinach stew, I found the recipe on Pinterest and just added extra veggies I had to use up.
