Finally, I met some PPKers and made Isa Pizza!

On separate days, mind you.

From the PPK meet up at Lan Cafe in NYC - the Seitan and water spinach, as recommended by Tofulish - woo hoo! It was so good!!!

Isa Pizza! With white buttons instead of creminis and no kalamata olives.

VwaV Cauliflower Leek Kugel with Almond Herb crust. But with green onions instead of Leeks, cause the stupid commissary doesn't sell leeks. This is it cold and leftover the next day - I wanted it too bad to take pics the first day.

Will got me a cool new camera for Valentine's day, so better pics now!

Cookies and bundles of joy.

Another scramble, because I love them so!

Lemon herb tofu (Vive le Vegan!, to be henceforth known as VLV), garlic brussel sprouts (VwaV), bulghur and corn.

VwaV's peanut butter oatmeal cookies - a picture of what happens when you forget to add the soymilk - they crumble at the slightest touch. Still very yummy though, and I only messed up the first batch! The other batches went to Will's work friend, who accepted them as payment for a favor and to Will's coworkers, who ate them all without letting Will have even one.

And banana oat bundles from VLV. Basically just bananas and oats - they're like those quaker oatmeal bars, but yummier, moister and vegan!

general tso's!

first off, my apologies for my lack of capital letters in this post. i spilled hot cocoa on my keyboard and the shift key on the right doesn't work, and the one on the left isn't comfortable for me to use.

so, first of all. the general tso's tofu from vegweb that the ppkers keep raving about. and rightly so - it's awesome!!

the olive broccoli frittata from vwav, with added spinach, and a failed (but yummy) pita bread. this frittata taught me that too much thyme is not a good thing (i used extra in an attempt to compensate for extra veggies being added). if not for the thyme excess, it would have been great!

the vwav fronch toast - yums!! all the yum w/o any gross eggs - woo hoo!!

and finally, the pan fried eggplant from vive le vegan - it was really good, except i didn't prep my eggplant well enough and some of it was bitter. alas.

Tofu Scramble, take 2

The last time I made scramble, I had onions as my only veggies. This time I had onions, mushrooms, eggplants, zucchini and carrots! MUCH yummier.

I told Will I'd make S'mores cupcakes. I changed my mind. Red Velvet!

Tofu

So the other morning I really felt the need for a "real" breakfast. I wanted a nice tofu scramble with veggies and some potatoes and a bagel with (vegan) cream cheese and tomatoes and orange juice. Sadly, no bagels, no cream cheese, no OJ, no veggies other than onions. I made do. Tofu scramble recipe and potato recipe came from VwaV, modified for my lack of ingredients.

I was starving after today's nap! I decided to have brussel sprouts, jasmine rice and some marinated baked tofu.

No picture of VCTOTW's brooklyn brownies - they're mostly gone. But yummy!
