365 days of dinner: May 5-15, 2009

May 23rd, 2009 at 05:12 am

Wow, it's been a while! I might have to do some tonight and some tomorrow.

So, going all the way back to Tuesday, May 5, we had "spicy crispy vegan" over rice (one of our old standards).



Wednesday we were over at our friends' house. They served up minted couscous salad and a chickpea-green bean salad:



Thursday, May 7, we had cheese quesadillas with black beans and rice on the side.



Friday we had a quick and easy dinner of storebought veggie burgers and tater tots:



Saturday was another quickie meal, rotini with tomato sauce:



Sunday, May 10, we had a real treat: handmade ravioli a la NT, stuffed with mushrooms and topped with a wine-sundried tomato tomato sauce.


Monday night we had another easy dinner (notice a theme for these weeks?) of Morningstar buffalo wings, lemon-butter broccoli and biscuits:



Tuesday, May 12, we had "Asian roast dinner": Asian-marinated tofu, wasabi mashed potatoes and Szechuan string beans.



And Wednesday we reprised BBQ sandwiches from the Vegan Dad cookbook, along with Gunsmoke Slaw from the cookbook Vegetarian Planet. We had our friend over and it was a big success!




Thursday, May 14, NT made us a spicy, creamy (from coconut milk) chickpea/spinach curry over rice:



Friday, May 15, AS and I teamed up to make a vegan version of chicken 'n' waffles, with corn on the cob. The "chicken" was one of our favorite recipes from Vegan Vittles, Southern-Fried Tofu. We had lots of breading left over, so we'll be having that again soon!



OK, I'm going to stop for the night! I'll try to get caught up the rest of the way tomorrow, but I might be too busy to do until Monday

    yum! i made ravioli a little while ago, i blended beetroot & ricotta, and pumpkin & ricotta, together for the fillings (with herbs & spices), and we had it with a fresh tomato sauce.

    Thanks guys! Boo--NT uses a pasta maker to make the sheets of dough, but as long as you have pasta flour, I wonder if you could just roll out the sheets, place the filling on one, put the other over, and cut/crimp the edges. You can put anything in the middle, from butternut squash to fake ground beef!

    Have you had bean waffles? My Momma Becca makes them and they are so good.

    Hi Sicily--wow, bean waffles, that sounds interesting! I've never heard of them. How are they made?
