Layers

5 Mar

Lately, I’ve been all about layers.

The top layer was what I was really excited about though.

Some of the Soyrizo from the Denver Seitan Company

Doesn’t look all to fancy but the taste and texture is amahzing.

Layer Uno : sawwce

I like to add spinach or other greens on the bottom layer of a pizza because it shrinks as it cooks

Onion and Mushroom Layer

Daiya Cheese is always on top so I can taste the gooey deliciousness in every bite. Plus is doesn’t get as messy when cutting it.

Then the soyrizo seitan which I quickly sauteed on a skillet beforehand.

Post Oven Lovin’

Happy Monday!

And in case you have the Monday blue’s here a picture to cheer you up.

I spotted this hilarity in the cake display at Whole Foods

It’s not even Mo’vember, but I’ll take it!

I speak food, not politics

7 Feb

After work I went to a crowded gymnasium.

A very crowded gymnasium.

To hear this guy speak.

I’ve never been to a rally before so it was a tremendous first one to attend.

Romney speaks like a true business man and that is a language I am very familiar with.

But I’m not here to talk politics. I’m here to talk food.

Since I was out of the house for a full twelve hours packing meals was necessary.

Let’s take a gander at lunch, which has usually been some sort of marinated kale salad.

Kale, mushrooms, black beans, onion, jalapenos, and nacho mmm sauce with extra cayenne. Stored in the fridge overnight and devoured the next day.

Fun with Kale Chips

27 Jan

Whenever I’m unfamiliar with a method of cooking or an ingredient I always use a recipe until I’m comfortable enough to start messing around with it.

I broke in my dehydrator with a Sour Cream and Onion Kale Chip recipe from Thrive Foods (this is my latest go-to recipe book and everything so far is fab-u-lous)

I couldn’t believe how easy this was and why I have not done this sooner. Especially because it’s so cheap compared to the pricy kale chips in store.

I immediately whipped up two variations the next day.

Basically there is a nut base (either sunflower seeds or cashews) and then a bunch of spices among other things.

This one was nooch flavored.

  • ½ c sunflower and cashews
  • 1/3 c water
  • 1/3 c nooch
  • ½ t salt
  • ½ t pepper

I think this was my favorite….or maybe the sour cream and onion. Ah they’re all amahzing.

Curry Flavored

  • ½ c sunflower and cashews
  • 1/3 c water
  • 1/3 c nooch
  • ½ t salt
  • ½ t pepper
  • 1 T curry powder

Sour Cream and Onion

The onion powder was an excellent addition

One of the thing I love about making these is that I can put them in that night, flip the on switch, and they’re ready for me in the morning. Or vice versa.

My next mission is to come up with a bunch more variations! I’m thinking old bay will be next. And also a lot more fun with the dehydrator.

Question: Any flavor suggestions while I’m at it?
