not broken

Soooooooooooo....it turns out my computer wasn't broken. The internet phone people just didn't know how to fix our phone problem so decided to just tell us our computer was broken. We will still be getting a new computer though....I have a ton of food pics that i've taken during my hiatus which will be posted over the next few days..



Seitan Tacos w. Salsa, Avocado and Raw Zucchini with Sauteed Swiss Chard


Lets just say I'm obsessed with these. I purchased a package of taco seasoning not expecting much from it. I was wrong. I was devouring the seitan out of the pan before any other part of the meal was ready. Peter and my sister were lucky I didn't eat all of it. I'm now in the process of developing my own taco seasoning. I can't see buying it when I have a ton of my own spices that need to be used.



Real Food Daily Basic Seitan

Is this the best seitan I've ever made? Maybe. I have always wanted the Real Food Daily cookbook and would never buy it. I received it for x-mas this year and am now kicking myself for not having it sooner. I love the cooking process for this seitan recipe. You get sorta the best of both boiled and baked seitan all at once. It was perfect for the taco's above.



Wednesday Potluck

Every Wednesday I get a break from motherhood and hang out with some girls (and one guy) and we watch TV..play Wii..talk politics and why we shouldn't have survived our childhood. Some Wednesday have a theme. Most don't. I'm a fan of the non theme pot lucks because of the crazy mix of food you get to eat. The pot luck plate pictured above has the Seitan Hot Wingz that I contributed to the meal, some delicious fried tofu made by my sister by way of my friend Rachele, salsa and chips, hummus and pita, and a delicious mixed salad.
