Hi everyone! This week I tried a new vegan bacon recipe, inspired by the parsnip bacon post on Lisa’s Project: Vegan. I used canola oil instead of sunflower oil, and liquid smoke and a sprinkling of salt instead of smoked salt.
The parsnip bacon had a very nice crunch to it, and even though it mostly tasted like a parsnip chip to me, I still really enjoyed it in a bagel BLT (I also crumbled up some of the leftovers and added them like bacon bits to a salad, which was pretty good, too).

Hi everyone! April’s MiniMoFo theme is “in season,” so I picked three (asparagus, mushrooms, & parsnips) from the Seasonal Food Guide for PA in late April. I used the asparagus nut stir-fry recipe, replacing the peppers and walnuts with parsnips and mushrooms, and serving it atop farfalle pasta. This was my first time having parsnips, but I wasn’t really a fan. (I steamed them for a bit, then added them to the stir-fry to cook further.) All in all, though, it was fun to try something new (and seasonal), and the rest of the dish was pretty good!
Here are Buttons and Cringer sharing the couch...
Peace. :)
