Come Back Taste

I made more gluten free brownies yesterday. I've had a difficult weekend emotionally speaking and I guess I wanted to eat some feelings. The only problem is that they aren't really worth the calories since I can't taste anything. I did have a few anyway, my heart knew they were brownies! I'll take the rest to work since my co-workers seem to love vegan treats!
I think I've mentioned that in my pregan days I loved horseradish cheddar cheese. I used to buy it in the fancy cheese section of Safeway in Seattle, Ballard to be more exact. Anyway I have some horseradish in my fridge and I had some cashews soaking so I decided to make horseradish mac and cheese. I was going to write down a recipe, but I realized recipes are probably best when you can actually taste! But I just made a cashew cheese sauce and added some horseradish. I also made some BBQ soy curls on the side.

Someone on the gram commented that it looked good, but also looked like BBQ chicken! I couldn't tell if they were trolling or not. To make the soy curls I just soaked them in warm water for ten minutes, then put them in a baking dish with BBQ sauce. I covered the dish in foil and baked at a low temp, maybe 325 for like 45 minutes. I often hear low and slow when it comes to meats and BBQ and all that so I figured that was a good route to take. Now taste wise I might be a little fuzzy, but texture wise these were amazing! Chewy but not tough they were perfect. I feel like these would make any meat eater happy. I'm pretty sure this was a delicious meal, and when I can taste again I will remake and share the recipe!

Here is a very close up of my gorgeous Etta! This was a day last week where I was sick in bed all day. All my girls cuddled and I got a chance to get a picture. Doesn't she look so soothing?
