Let us know what you think!
First Meal: After my Okara Blueberry Muffin failure the other day I froze the rest of the Okara. Today I made a Mushroom Vegetable Soup and thought I could thicken it with the Okara. Okara is great in soup! I added some of the remaining creamy Pesto and served it with Genmaicha tea. Gary…
First Meal: Yesterday, I successfully made homemade Soy milk, thanks to Miyoko’s Artisan Vegan Pantry cookbook which had the secret tip to get rid of the paint smell! Today we put it to the foam test. It passed. I topped my Yerba Mate with foamy Soy Milk and Cinnamon. We toasted the failed Okara…
First Meal: I made homemade Soy Milk recently and a byproduct is Okara, the leftover fiber. I wanted to do something with it and I attempted making Blueberry Muffins. It was an epic failure! They cooked forever and stayed moist and gooey inside. We ate them anyway. The flavor was good, texture bad. Second…
First Meal: Today we walked! After doing Gary’s routine walk which is about 4 miles, we came home, hydrated and set out for Flushing to eat at Bodai Kosher Vegetarian for Dim Sum. Can you say Two Kinds Mushroom Congee? It’s my favorite. There are a choice of Greens and we chose Choy Sum.…
First Meal: What are we going to do today? We’re driving up to Woodstock on an adventure. First, a feeding. I made a soup of leftovers, Creamy Pesto, Mushrooms, Tomatoes and Scallions. Next we had Roasted Vegetables and Baked Tofu with Pesto on Tortillas. Gary had packed bottles of tea, Apples and Figs…
First Meal: It’s been bugging me for awhile. I wanted to take a second attempt at vegan, gluten-free Japanese Silk Pancakes. The last time I made them I didn’t have the molds. Now we had them and I was itching to make them. We did it. It was a little nerve wracking wondering if they…
First Meal: Breakfast was easy with leftover Garbanzo Bean Flour Omelets from last night, served with sliced Apples. A matinee, a Pinter play! Today we saw the play Betrayal with Tom Hiddleston, Zawe Ashton, and Charlie Cox. We have been so lucky this year seeing some incredible once in a lifetime kinds of theater…
First Meal: Polenta, to me, is that “other” hot cereal. Oatmeal is the hot cereal. And it’s not that I like one more than the other. I love them both. Maybe I like polenta even more. It just seems like a treat when I make it. Today it was served with Apricot Butter, Pumpkin Seeds,…
First Meal: Today is my mom’s 86 birthday. She will be having lunch with her girlfriends today to celebrate. She has had a tight circle of friends for most of her life and it is so nice that they gather together regularly. We celebrated her birthday with my brother’s family and my cousin Donna and…
