Mini Tofu Sammies

This serves a family of 6, or one Genny. Mini bbq tofu sammies made on mini wheat pitas with bbq sauce, vegenaise, avo, tomato, onion, and crispy tofus. Apples with agave and cinnamon, and cucumbers with salt and pep on the side. I struggled through the last cucumber spear and last 3 apple slices but I managed to put all of this away. Make hooray!

Cute Alert

It's been a while since we exercised our cuteous maximus muscles, hope you're wearing your leg warmers and sweat band.
One of my absolute favorite new sites, Design Sponge, has a lot of really great, easy, and adorable DIY projects and products.
Check out this little tin turned into a silly bear clock!

Shells and Chreese

So I had to dive right into these shells and chreese from food fight, obv.
Photobucket
So creamy and chreesy! I think I read the box about 5 times to make sure they didn't sneak any cheese in.
Photobucket
Some globs of chili garlic sauce on top... mindblowing.

Honestly, could you have waited long enough to plate this up real nice and garnish and all that stuff with this staring you in the face? You understand!

Food Fight!

Thanks to Food Fight Vegan Grocery, in Portland, Oregon, I have a veritable cornucopia of goodies to blab about.

Here's the loot. Yes, most of the packages are open in the pics, being that I could not wait two seconds to taste some of everything!

Rainbow Bridge Foods

I love Rainbow Bridge in Ojai. I ate all the Kidney Bean and Walnut Salad, and all the Kimchee before I could take pics of them, but managed to hold off on the Chipotle Hummus and Kalamata Olives.

Trader Joe's Adzuki Bean chips + Chipotle Hummus = The pinnacle of food self-actualization

Green Smoothie

Ok so my new blender had to go back from whence it came because it stopped working right after about 4 smoothies. Awesome. At least I got one last smoothie out of it. Pineapple, orange, banana, and kale.

Fuck Yea Cilantro

Genius from FUCK YEA CILANTRO

Photobucket

"Bacon is the Anna Nicole Smith of foods—hedonistic, superficial, and willfully ignorant. Arterial self-destruction wrapped around a shrill, desperate vacuum. Bacon is your pair of yellow H2s slouching beside your 7,000 sq ft McMansion, all of it mere minutes from being repossessed by the bank.

Cilantro is Natalie Portman, Lily Allen, and Zooey Deschanel all rolled into one: responsible yet stylish, challenging and charming, intelligent without being pedantic. Recession-friendly in every way. Cilantro will make your modest meal a sensation before it goes out into the cooling dusk and mends your dilapidated gate with bailing wire and elbow grease."

Mmmm... Sundried tomatoes, onions, pineapple, and a mountain of mushrooms = 2nd best Boboli ever. (Technically not a Boboli since I used TJ's pizza dough, but for sentimental sake...)

Sesamesaurus

Please ignore the dirty plate. This is a sesame agave dinosaur, kinda like theeesee... but I can never follow a recipe so there aren't any cashews, and they're dinosaur shaped and not truffle shaped.
