Full of Good Stuff

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!

  4. 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.

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. 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
