Some Stuff I Ate

This was the leftover sweet potato and red pepper soup with rice mixed in and tofu croutons. Doused liberally with sriracha and green dragon sauce. This was a very delicious breakfast the other day. Like anything with curry it was better the next day.

I made more of the samosa potato pancakes from Mrs. Plant in Texas. Here is the recipe again if anyone is interested. They're so, so delicious!

I made my first loaf of gluten free bread yesterday. I veganized this recipe. I got the almond and coconut flour in the bulk section, and I ground my own flaxmeal so this loaf cost under two dollars to make. It looks weird because the recipe called for five eggs, so I made flax eggs, and also 1/4 cup of flaxmeal so that's a lot of flax! Also I don't have a loaf pan so I just put it on parchment paper and baked it in a casserole dish. But it tastes pretty dang good, and because of the flax it has a nutty, kind of whole wheat flavor. It's a lot more dense than regular bread, but I've learned that's to be expected with gluten free.

Here's my morning kitchari with tofu croutons and some of the bread. I toasted it a little in the oven, and I almost cried when I sopped up my soup. It's been so long, and even though it's not perfect, it tastes good and goes really well with soup!

Last night I was feeling sad about the very unexpected death of Chris Cornell so I wanted something easy and comforting. I made this kind of BiBimBap bowl with a spicy gochujung sauce. I can't say it made me feel better, but it was tasty.

Here's Afro, or should I say Brutus spidercatting along the couch after getting hopped up on catnip. She had just started a huge fight with Etta that I had to break up, so she was venting her frustration on the couch!
