Another Lazy Saturday Post

Hello on the 20th day of the Vegan Month of Food!  No new recipe tonight, just a post about a dinner from earlier this week with leftovers and quick fixin's.  


Menu:
--leftover mushroom vegetable soup
--snap peas and mushrooms (with soy sauce and lemon)
--plain potato
--garlic rolls
--lemon water


The leftover mushroom vegetable soup was good; I added a little less than 1/4 cup water to it before re-heating it since some of the liquid had gotten absorbed.  The rolls were nice for dunking in the soup.  My mom was just going to make the snap peas plain--cooking them in olive oil, with soy sauce and maybe garlic salt--but I decided it would be interesting to try adding chopped mushrooms and lemon juice.  It wasn't.  (I didn't like the way they turned out, because a) mushroom overload with it already being in the soup and b) the lemon was way too strong.  But my mom liked it, so I guess that balances out.)  Not much to say about a plain potato, haha, though I did end up adding some ketchup to it, so it wasn't completely plain.  And finally, the lemon water--a nice touch, but probably only something I'll do when I have a lemon I'm wanting to use up.  Otherwise, plain water is more my style.

Simple Spaghetti

Hello on the 16th day of the Vegan Month of Food!  It's hard to believe that we're already into the second half of this adventure; I'm looking forward to keeping the momentum going as we continue on.  Spaghetti might not be the most exciting dish, but it's one that you can make in a pinch and it is certainly nice and filling, which was just what my mom and I were looking for the other night.

Simple Spaghetti


Ingredients:
--spaghetti noodles
--spaghetti sauce
--broccoli 
--cauliflower
--vegan mozzarella cheese


Prepare the spaghetti noodles and heat up the spaghetti sauce.  Boil the broccoli and cauliflower.  Strain and serve the spaghetti noodles, sprinkling the vegan mozzarella cheese on top, adding the spaghetti sauce, and stirring it all together well.  Top off with the broccoli and cauliflower, and enjoy with vegan garlic rolls.


Mr. Boogie and I are getting tired, so we're heading to bed.  Goodnight. 


Peace.  :)
