Oven Baked Vegan Corn Dogs, Peas and Horseradish Red Potato Salad with Celery and Onion
Recipe from here (don’t be fooled by their stock photo) I’m not in love with this batter recipe. It might have been because I used normal whole wheat flour and flax seed for the egg replacer but it was very dense. I’ll have to play around with recipes. They’re not the prettiest but I’m still impressed that you can bake a corndog!
Homemade Hummus Pita Sandwich with Oven Roasted Zucchini, Onions and Garlic
There was so much roasted garlic, and it was great. I roasted these vegetables the same time I baked this, because oven multitasking is the best.
Roasted Red Potato, Onion, Summer Squash and Tomato Casserole with Roasted Sweet Corn
Would you call this dish a casserole? Whatever it is it’s fantastic. My mother used to make it except she used russet potatoes and didn’t use summer squash. You just thinly slice up the vegetables, lay them alternating in an oiled pan and then drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. The onions flavor the whole dish and the cooked tomatoes are tart and juicy but parts of the potatoes are crispy. I asked my mom where she got this recipe and she said she just thought it up while trying to stretch potatoes for a meal. Amazing!
Sorry the second picture is so awful, my camera started freaking out, but I think it’s fixed now. My camera was acting like it was possessed, scary x_x
CSA Week 37
Grapefruit, Basil, Summer Squash, Tomatoes (double share), Tomatillos, “Trucker’s Delight” Sweet Corn, Red Lasoda Potatoes
We were supposed to get eggplant but we got corn instead (the name of the corn variety made me think of this bumper sticker). They were also giving out artichoke blossoms, I had no idea that they were purple :D
Also today is Waldi’s birthday! My partner baked dog biscuits and I piped a ‘W’ on it with cream cheese for him :) He was a very happy dude.
Homemade Hummus on Wheat Toast with Yellow Tomatoes and Pickled Onions
Our Lunches! But now I want to talk about breakfast. This is my second day of making green smoothies. They’re amazing. Not too sweet, I wish I started making them sooner. I’ve only done spinach so far, but I have some baby kale too. My blender is a bit of a whimp so I don’t know if it’ll be able to handle super hardy greens.
If you make green smoothies what type of things do you like to put in them? We don’t get a ton of fruit from the CSA (except for melons, and you can bet your tush I’ll be using those when we start getting them) so where/how do you get your hands on cheap fruit?
Spiced Red Potato Burrito with Grated Zucchini, Tomatillo Salsa, Pickled Onions and Jalapenos and Cream Cheese
This was dinner last night, and tonight we had the same thing except I made mine with a CSA Sweet potato :) Used Trader Joe’s vegan cream cheese, human and dachshund approved.
Brunch! Meyer Lemon Pancakes, Tempeh Bacon, Yellow Tomatoes and Curried Broccoli Salad. Not Shown Fruit Salad with Grapefruit and Strawberries
My mother came by so I made a fancy brunch <3
I am intrigued by your curried broccoli salad. Recipe please?
No problem <3 as for the ratios just do whatever amounts look good for you
I first finely chopped up a little onion and let it soak in just enough rice vinegar to cover (I do this is most raw onion so it doesn’t give me headaches)
Then I used my food processor to finely chop up the broccoli and carrots. I was originally going to just chop the broccoli tops finely with a knife and then grate the broccoli stems and carrots with a box grater so if you don’t have a food processor…
I cheated on the dressing and used the last of my homemade Caesar dressing mixed with curry powder (Sounds gross but the flavor of the caesar mellowed out so it worked) If I was making it from scratch I would have used a little mayonnaise or unsweetened plain yogurt (or both) or even blended soft tofu. Either way I mixed that up with the onions, vinegar and curry powder, then added salt to taste.
At the end I added a handful of chopped golden raisins, sunflower seeds would also be good.
