Full of Good Stuff
Posted by Celine on May 12, 2008
if you don’t know about Nut and Bee yet, you have to click on the above picture to check out their stuff. I could spend hours looking at all the fun, cute things they make.
on the food front, I was lazy and didn’t bother with pictures of any of the following. I’m feeling both iffy and busy, so while I’ve been working on several goodies, it’ll take me a while longer to get around and posting about it all.
in the meantime, here are a few new things we had during the weekend, that will definitely be on rotation over here from now on:
- Urban Vegan’s English Muffins
- Eat, Drink & Be Vegan’s Cumin Lime Tofu: I’m trying to learn and love cumin, and recipes like this one? definitely help.
- Bon Appétit’s Rustic Plum and Port Tart with the usual pie crust (scroll down for recipe): just be sure to let the dough cool down completely before handling it, it’d make for a mess if it were too warm since there’s no pie pan involved.
- Yellow Rose Recipes‘ Green-Wa: so easy to prepare, healthy, AND satisfying.
- Quick-Fix Vegetarian’s Green Onion & Lime Hummus (only used 1 green onion as I eat the stuff for breakfast too…if you catch my drift)
- Vegan Planet’s Cilantro Pesto: thick and delicious spread on bread! I finished the leftovers mixed in with the Lime Hummus and some tomato sauce, all of it stirred into flax whole grain pasta.
- Quick-Fix Vegetarian’s Curried Pumpkin Soup, sans pecans, but throwing in some Kale and White Beans for good measure instead…
hope you all had a great Mother’s Day celebration!

Wow, you chose some really great recipes to prepare! I love the Cumin Lime tofu, too! I had it at a barbecue just two days ago. Because I was the only vegan there I left the tofu in the foil and I was so impressed by the taste.

Mmmmmm…the Cumin-Lime Tofu. That is one fine recipe! I understand your dislike for cumin, I am that way with cilantro. Blah!

I love the Green-wa! I made one of the variations a while ago, I think I’m gonna use that recipe again soon. I’m looking at the Nut and Bee website right now, it makes me happy! thanks for the link!

Ooo, English Muffins…another thing to add to my to do/to bake list!
Camelbaks are great. They have a range specially designed for women and sizes for what ever you need one for. I’ve got the Day Star…it’s survived through many an event plus general use.

I saw that port-plum tart in my BA magazine and as soon as plums get good here I’m going to make it. Thanks for the tip on the cooling, I was wondering how that was going to work sans pan.

Oh man, all recipes from cookbooks I’ve been lusting after. I can’t wait for my new job to start so I can justify buying all the cookbooks and try these. :X
