‘Cheezy’ Sun-dried Tomato and Broccoli Pasta Bake.
I used this recipe, hoping for a macaroni cheese type taste… and it was horrific. I put in half as much mustard as the recipe said as I ~detest mustard, but it was still all I could taste. I only added it because I thought it would give it a certain je ne sais quoi, not make it taste like mustard hell.
But I didn’t want to waste the sauce (as it calls for a whole block of tofu) so added some lemon juice, fresh and dried basil, paprika, sun-dried tomatoes, ketchup, tomato paste and black pepper. The sauce made a miraculous recovery and tasted wonderful! I stirred in some wholewheat pasta, spinach, broccoli and red pepper, placed it in a casserole dish and topped with breadcrumbs and more paprika. After baking for 25 minutes I served it up and everyone loved it! :D
The tofu makes the sauce creamy without the need for super fatty substances and also makes it protein packed, so combine that with the fibre in the wholewheat pasta and in the broccoli - it’s one dish that’ll keep you full for a while!
And that’s the tale of how I prevented dinner from being a disaster.

My lunch of leftovers: tempeh, quinoa, broccoli, peas, and avocado. Not the most photogenic meal, but delicious nonetheless!

Lunch! Exhibit B: Vegetarian Tortilla Soup from Mellow Mushroom.
I completed my BBQ Tofu Salad meal (see previous post) with a cup of their veggie tortilla soup (ordered sans cheese and sour cream). This soup doesn’t photograph well as it always getting sloshed a bit on the way to the table, but is so spicily delicious that it’s worth mentioning. Essentially, this is a spicy, flavor-packed tomato broth thickened with some tortilla strips, and chock full of tomato chunks, green peppers, black beans, and corn, and topped with an avocado slice. It’s a little bowl with massive flavor… Love it!

yum… julian made this for us after working a long day (the busiest day of the month)! mac and chreese with field roast frankfurters, daiya, tomato, and a bed of baby kale and arugula. it made me remember how gross kraft dinner & weiners used to taste/how sick it made me feel… dairy free/vegan = a much better option, i promise you. :)
