[RubyDuby]

[PaintedXSkyline]

*drools*

[cedarblue]

cheers for dad!

[jamboxrock]

Both those lasagnas are dead sexy, and the restaurant food looks great!

Cajun-style red beans and brown rice, steamed spinach/baby romaine.



Black bean and corn hash with mango avocado relish de gallo, or at least that's what I'm callling it.



Leftover broccoli in hunan sauce with brown rice and store bought baked teriyaki tofu.



Sesame noodles with cremini mushrooms and edamame, recipe here.



Homefries.

[cedarblue]

yummedy as usual erin.

do you use a bought spice mix for the cajun flavouring?

[Est]

Yummy indeed jmbr!

What is hunan sauce?

[jamboxrock]

I used a store bought blackening/cajun seasoning this time, normally I use a homemade blend. It's packed away right now

Est, I have no idea what hunan sauce is, I got it at a Chinese place. It tasted like a garlicky chili sauce.

[Est]

Thanks

[Sarah_]

A great idea by Harpy. Elbow mac with a small can of tomato sauce, chopped onion grilled in soy sauce, and various seasonings thrown in-garlic salt, sugar, etc.
SOOOOO good.

[Sarah_]

PS please excuse the dumb test thing under my picture. Imageshack keeps doing that.

Homemade vanilla tapioca pudding with banana slices:

[pavotrouge]

Yummy indeed jmbr!

What is hunan sauce?

It probably should be a spicy sauce... Hunan is a county of China with some of the spiciest foods in the country.

[Est]

Thanks pavo

[Mahk]

My mushroom, spinach, onion "cheese" quesadilla with two salsas. The bean/corn one is homemade the red one is store bought:



The "cheese" is the nutritional yeast/ soy milk/ Earth Balance margarine recipe used for my nachos and often mentioned in mac 'n' cheese vegan cook books.

[missbettie]

i've never thought about using nutritional yeast as the cheese is a quesadilla, thats actually a really good idea, the soy cheese never melts as well as i hope, even if it says it melts on the package...i really should try that for enchilladas...

[clueless]

This is what I had for a very big lunch yesterday. Cous cous with fried onion, carrots and peas, homemade fries and side salad:

[sunrisesunset]

homemade fries. yum

[BlackCats]

This food all looks so good, especially the quesadilla Mahk.

I stayed in all day today so I bothered to take pictures of what I ate

Bagels with vegan cream cheese, tomato and black pepper and with PB and banana (and cup of green tea of course)

I made this roast lunch despite it not being Sunday and it was so nice. Roast potatoes, roast parsnips, broccoli, greens, stuffing and fake chicken fillet with veggie gravy.


I also had neapolitan Swedish Glace ice cream (finally) with fresh pineapple and banana for dessert but the picture came out really dark so I won't post it.

[Enchantress]

Mmm, that looks delicious, Black Cats. I didn't know Alpro made cream cheese.

[BlackCats]

Mmm, that looks delicious, Black Cats. I didn't know Alpro made cream cheese.

I didn't either. I just saw it when I ordered online from Tesco. It doesn't taste as much like caramel as the tofutti cheese, which is good.

[jamboxrock]

BlackCats, that roast lunch looks delicious!

[Animosity]

Thanks pavo

Animosity - vanilla tapioca pudding. Recipe. Immediately. Please

I followed the one on the box and modified it..

It was 1/4 cup of tapioca
3 cups of coconut or soy milk
2-3 tsps of vanilla extract
1 tablespoon of sugar
banana or shreded coconut to top

Cook the tapioca and milk stiring constently for 12-15 minutes until the tapioca completely is translucent. Remove from heat and add the sugar, Vanilla and any other flavourings you want. Stir well, Add toppings and chill.

[jamboxrock]

Cedar, I want that soup! The shake looks great too. Sometimes I crave the choco/pb/nana combo so badly that I have to have it within a few hours.

JuicyGirl, your pizzas look unreal! Good to know that cookbook has a raw section, I might be wanting to try more raw foods soon, looking for recipe sources.

[Aradia]

Cedarblue - these scones look deeeelicious!


(do you call them scones or scones )

[RubyDuby]

homemade strawberry jam... yummm

roasted fingerling potatoes... yummm

the cream cheese bagels make me wish i had bagels... cream cheese on everything bagel... yummm

I think I'm making quesadilas today now. Mahk- do u have the exact recipe for that cheese? I wonder if I could find it online.

[cedarblue]

Cedarblue - these scones look deeeelicious!

My first attempt at homemade sushi.



And the leftovers in a sushi bowl.

[RubyDuby]

where did u get your sushi mat?

[Tigerlily]

Sweet Potato Lentil Chili from Dreena Burton's Eat Drink and Be Vegan cookbook (p.101). I know this isn't the most artistic food porn photo. But it was delicious.

[Sarah_]

^ it actually looks amazing.

[Tigerlily]

It was really good with some "buttered" bread. She recommended guacamole and tortilla chips and/or fried plaintains. I prefer the simple approach of bread+Earth Balance.

[Mahk]

where did u get your sushi mat?

Many kitchen supply stores have them. Bed Bath and Beyond, Linen 'n' Things, and Kitchens etc.

My first attempt at homemade sushi.

Jamboxrock, excellent for a first timer. I've found some of the secrets to making it is to use a razor sharp knife. I actually sharpen my knife with one of those pull the blade through this "V" shaped device gizmos just prior to use. Also wipe the blade clean after each slice and then wet with water prior to each cut. This helps minimize "rice stick". Cut the full length roll in half and then place the two pieces side by side, hold together and slice the two together into thirds or quarters. I watched the pro's do it to learn this and they all seem to be rather consistent in this method.

[cedarblue]

that sushi looks so good!

[RubyDuby]

i'vecalled all of the kitchen stores that I know of around here to no avail.


looks like i'm going to have to drive further or order online.

[alisont]

Wow just catching up some great foodie pics

I didnt realise about alpro cream cheese will look out for that in the london vegan festival if alpro there, really want to try that as not keen on scheeze - the soft one.

Bet its not available in the Midlands

Thanks a lot! Will have a go at this - it looks fab.

[Aradia]

Lentil pate, Tunisian style aubergine and tomato, mint yoghurt, black olive bread and heritage tomato ... all home-made, most of it grown in my garden

(ps ... I don't normally have spread that thick on my bread .... but I haven't had much fat in the past week so I loaded it on!)

[cedarblue]

splendiferous aradia!

[JuicyGirl]

My veggie pizza...

[JuicyGirl]

Vanilla cake, Vanilla Frosting, strawberries...

[JuicyGirl]

Homemade pizza crust with Pinneapple, Black Olives, and shredded Follow Your Heart Mozz.

[Mahk]

I think I'm making quesadilas today now. Mahk- do u have the exact recipe for that cheese? I wonder if I could find it online.

oops, I must've missed that when I first read it. Same cheez sauce as I use for nachos. Also, don't re-cook the sauce inside the quesadilla. Make the quesadilla, including the internal veggies, cooking on both sides and then peel it open, add the cheez sauce as the last step, reseal, cut, and serve.

[RubyDuby]

cool, i have all that stuff.


that second pizza looks esp yummy juicygirl.
