Sweet Potato and Black Bean Hash 20 months ago

I tried this last night. It was pretty good although I lacked the jalapeno pepper and fresh onion. It was still plenty spicy. My omnivore husband said it was “okay” but my veggie daughter gobbled it up. recipe

Spanish rice 21 months ago

I tried a vegan recipe for this (but I changed it slightly in keeping with my renewed creative spirit). It was not bad, although I felt it was lacking something – perhaps a bit bland.



Vanilla pound cake with lime glaze 22 months ago

I made this on Friday. It was quite tasty and hard to tell it was vegan. Silken tofu was used as the “egg substitute”. I would make it again.

For those who are interested, I am adding the recipe below. Enjoy!

Vanilla Pound Cake with Lime Glaze

Vegan

Pound cake ingredients:

5 oz silken tofu, drained
2/3 cup sugar
¼ cup canola oil
¼ cup vanilla soymilk
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 ½ cups cake flour (I used organic whole wheat pastry flour with good results)
1 ½ tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt

Lime glaze ingredients:

1/3 cup confectioners’ sugar
1 tbs lime juice

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Coat 9×5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
2. Blend tofu, sugar, oil, soymilk and vanilla extract in food processor until smooth.
3. Mix together cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl. Fold in tofu mixture. Pour into loaf pan, and bake 30 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
4. Cool in pan 5 minutes, then unmold and cool on wire rack until just warm.
5. Glaze: Whisk together sugar and lime juice in small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over top of cake. Cool cake completely before serving to allow glaze to set.

Edamame Fried Rice 1 year ago

Now that cold weather is here, I am more interested in cooking again. I tried this recipe last week with good results, although it was a tad greasier than I expected. I used peanut oil and added black ground pepper.

Garlicky Grit Cakes and grilled veggies 2 years ago

Last week’s experiment was a recipe I got from Vegetarian Times. It took a bit longer to make than the instructions suggested. I did think they were quite flavorful though and will make them again. Garlicky Grit Cakes

The other day I had grilled vegetables, red potatoes in garlic and olive oil, and sauteed tempeh. It was an accidental vegan meal that I enjoyed thoroughly.
