tempeh scramble

tempeh, kale, onions, peppers!

pizza (for breakfast)

in a break from our usual saturday morning fare of scrambles and pancakes, we made a pizza for breakfast a few weeks ago. we started by oiling a crust and sprinkling garlic power around the edge. then we loaded it up with marinara, onions, mushrooms, olives, yellow and red roasted peppers, and crumbled seasoned tempeh. before eating it, we drizzled a bit of vegan ranch on top. dig in, fork required.

seitan portobello stroganoff

this dish is fairly time consuming, so we made it on a saturday evening. it was well worth the time spent, and the leftovers for our lunches were incredible. the recipe comes from vegan with a vengeance.

chili lime tofu

we've made this before, and i thought i had posted it. apparently not. this chili lime tofu is from vegan yum yum. dry-fried tofu with a spicy sweet glaze. here we served it on millet. the dry-frying changes the texture of the tofu into a firmer, chewier taste. then the glaze flavors it perfectly on its crispier outside. this recipe is really fast and easy once you have your tofu dry-fried, which is joe's job, anyway.

chocolatey. chewy. spicy. sugary. yummy.

kale chips

these chips are really tasty and very quick to make. just wash and tear up some kale and toss it with olive oil and sea salt. bake the kale for 10-15 minutes at 350° until crispy. yum!
