TODAY I MADE....

I'm introducing a new section that will show people what I make on a daily basis.  One of the biggest complaints I hear from people is that this is so hard, so I thought I'd document, as often as I can remember, what I made and what I bought that was already made.  You can check in on this page by clicking on the tab TODAY I at the top of the blog.  I'll have the most current date at the top.  I'm obviously not eating all of this and I do give some of the food to my twin aunts that in a nursing home because I want them to be able to continue on a WFPB diet.

PUMPKIN OR BANANA MUFFINS

To make muffins, use paper cupcake paper cups and muffin pans.  Put one paper cupcake (muffin) cup in each of the muffin slots.  Fill each cup 3/4 full.  Bake at 350 for 25 minutes.  A toothpick in the center should come out dry if they're done.  

Here are the recipes:

SEITAN or WHOLE FOODS PLANT BASED WHEAT MEAT

Many have asked me what I do for protein. This is one of the alternatives. There are a lot of other recipes for this but this one has no added oil.  It marinates well and can be used in many of the recipes you have that use meat as a protein.  You can also pulse it in a food processor to make ground meat type foods. Lots of experiments with this to get the texture so enjoy.

SIMPLE SCRAMBLE WITH HASHBROWNS

People say that my meals sometimes have a lot of ingredients.  Well, you can't get any easier than this!  Keep the tofu in the cupboard and the potatoes in the freezer for a quick meal anytime.  I like to shop at Trader Joe's but you can find these ingredients anywhere.  I've tried lots of different types of tofu to make the scrambles and I've settled on soft or silken being the best.  The texture is silky and there's no need to drain off the water.  Trader Joe's, and most grocery stores, sell a shelf version of tofu that only needs to be refrigerated after you open it.  Always look at the ingredients on frozen hashbrowns to make sure you're only getting potatoes.
