Sandwich
Lettuce, Tomato, Caramelized onion, Mushroom, Tofurkey Slices, Tofutti Cheese slices, Vegan Mayo. Delicious

St. Patrick's Day Yumminess
Colcannon, "Beef" and "Guiness" stew, soda bread. This was delicious. I didn't use Guiness because it isn't vegan, but I did get another stout beer. The seitan was homemade (La Dolce Vegan recipe).

Herbed Gnocchi with Kale and Balsamic-Glazed "Chicken"
Fresh herbs from my friend's herb garden. Gnocchi. Kale. What else do you need?



Gnocchi- boiled then sauteed with Earth Balance (EB for short), salt, pepper, and chopped fresh herbs. Kale- saite garlic, add clean prepared kale and a little water. Don't overcook! Add some soy sauce and black pepper. "Chicken"- defrosted Morningstar Strips sauteed with a lot of garlic. Add some balsamic vinegar and white wine and reduce to coat.
Eggplant "Parmesan" with leeks and cheesy Pasta

Leeks are pretty much my new best (ingredient) friend. I really like them! Eggplant parmesan recipe: http://vegcooking.com/recipeshow.asp?RequestID=385&Search=eggplant
Leeks- Cut end off white part and cut tough green part. Leave soft green part on. Cut lengthwise and swish around in sink of water. (Leeks hold a lot of dirt and there's nothing worse than enjoying something then getting grit in it.) Pat dry and place cut-side down in a skillet with some heated oil/margarine. Cook until golden on cut side, carefully flip with tongs, then continue to cook. Flip back over and brown cut side. Leeks should be tender but not mushy.
Pasta- cooked spaghetti with a little fresh garlic and Follow Your Heart (FYH) cheese melted in.
