summer grilling
last week we tested out our house's grill with dave and some vegan dogs and burgers. the $4 veggie rack was a worthwhile purchase at meijer, but the eco-goo lighting gel was interesting.
chips at guacamole to start
the new veggie grill rack
joe's soy dogs
vegan burger topped with the veggies and guac
market day
i was pleased to find out that there is a great reward for biking to the farmer's market on a warm saturday morning. it includes strawberries and avocado reubens (and a pound of lovely asparagus to enjoy later).
all it takes is some vegan thousand island with sauerkraut and sliced avocado (having an awesome cast iron sandwich press doesn't hurt, either)

country hermitage
after a great wedding with a vegan feast, joe and i headed up to the country hermitage b&b in traverse city. not only were we the only ones staying for the weekend, we were treated to fabulous vegan breakfasts both mornings.
day one
fruit parfait with apples, kiwi, walnuts, dried fruits, in a sweet glaze topped with vanilla soy yogurt and cranberry granola
fluffy blueberry pancakes with soy sausage and melon
day two
vanilla soy and banana smoothie that tasted like liquified banana bread (in the best possible way)
pan-fried tofu topped with portobellos and bell peppers with hash browns and warm cornbread muffins
if you're looking for a great place to stay, pat and lynn will make you completely comfortable and cater to your dietary desires.

stir-fry pasta with tempeh
this is another old one - a quick saturday afternoon dinner before work. i can't remember exactly how to make it, but it started with some tempeh and left-over pasta. after that it was just some stir-frying with olive oil, braggs, wine, and spices -- delightful.
coconut milk curry
unfortunately, i don't have any pictures of this one with my new camera. it's very tasty, even if it doesn't look as pretty.
