Well, I MEANT to post more food stuffs
I even had all the pictures ready and I promptly forgot to post them. Silly hockey getting in my way again.
ANYWAY!
First off is crisp dulse! Dulse is this awesome seaweed that sort of resembles bacon almost once it's been fried. Basically when you buy it, it's a little smooshy so you just put some oil in a frying pan, turn the heat to around medium, put the dulse in the pan and fry it until it's (a different shade) of brown. Takes a couple of minutes. I initially used the dulse with these twice baked potatoes (the recipe's from the Conscience Cook) but then I discovered that the dulse is still super awesome by itself. If quite salty.
I also did this potato recipe which comes from SeasaltwithFood. (the link takes you to the recipe). Was super pleased to find out that you could boil and fry (erm, attempt to fry in my case) potatoes in the same pan!
AND FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm a huge fan of smoothies (just not a huge fan of having to haul out all the ingredients to make it all the time). I made this one using cashew cream (another "recipe" from the Conscious Cook which involves blending pre-soaked cashews) and a bunch of frozen fruit I had in the freezer. SO GOOD. And such an easy way to down those otherwise mostly yucky nuts!

Yum. My in-laws are staying with us during Snowpocalypse (They lost power.), so I've been cooking three meals a day since Sunday. This is possibly more than I've cooked in the past several months combined. For lunch today, we had Golden Mushroom Soup from The Peaceful Palate by Jennifer Raymond. PP (which is vegan) is my all-time favorite cookbook. It's still in print, too: http://tinyurl.com/yhy79bb
I've also made a soup from The New Laurel's Kitchen that involved onions, tomatoes, green chilies, corn, lima beans, and okra. It was yummy. And quinoa with potatoes and cumin (my recipe). And pasta. And veggie chili. Tonight it's seitan scampi.
Now if I can just keep cooking after the storm ends.
