Potato Pancakes (again)
We got back yesterday from a long weekend at my parents in South Jersey. Since they are going to be in Cyprus for 2 weeks my mom gave us a bunch of food that they won't be using some of which included a big bag of red skinned potatoes and some huge ass onions. I was mega tired yesterday so I figured we would just order out and worry about cooking the next day. That was when I realized that my mom gave me everything I needed, veg wise, to make these. So I did. Peter was decadent and ate his with organic apple-apricot sauce. I was gross and ate them with a huge blob of cold organic ketchup!
3 Protein Chili
One very hot day the other day I was sweating and sticky hot so I decided it was a good day to make chili. I must have been cookoo or somthing but it was one of the best chili's I've made in a long time. I used 3 different types of protein: seitan cutlet chopped up, black beans and cashews. My chili's always have cashews in them.
Raspberry Chocolate Chip Blondies
It's Vegan with a Vengeance week over on the ppk forums. I had a VwaV week a year or so ago and made a few dishes I've never done so it's fun to revisit this book and make a few more recipes I've been hankering to make. The first thing I made was the Raspberry Chocolate Chip Blondies. I made them at 8:30 in the morning today so the finished product will be saved for my next post. Here they are before making their way into the oven.
Stay tuned to see what else I make from VwaV!
Yum x 3!!

Okay! There are just so many different bits of goodness to comment on....the chili sounds/looks GREAT. I love big bursts of protein - the more the merrier I say.
ReplyDeleteAnd the potato pancakes look awesome. I have never been brave enough to try them, but I think I might give them a go with my beanie buddies.
Oh yum! I love potato pancakes. I should make that for dinner tonight, with fresh dill and vegan sour cream... and ketchup of course :)
ReplyDeleteMmmm, potato pancakes!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I missed that it was VWAV week!! (haven't been good about checking the forums lately). Those blondies would have been my first choice too!
Hmmm... it's 11:00 at night and I am sitting here thinking those potato pancakes would be SOOO good. Must.Not.Enter.Kitchen...
ReplyDeleteI missed vwav week? oh poo! anyway, those fritters (both potato and corn) look so good to me right now, especially after you mentioned organic ketchup, yum yum. :P
