My hubby surprised me by taking the entire weekend off of work. Yay! Since he wasn’t working I decided I shouldn’t blog. Let me tell you this was much harder than I expected. I have many comments to respond to, sorry about the delay. There are also quite a few recipes to post from this weekend. However, we have had a great weekend. Here are some of the things I made since I was here last.
Mushroom Miso
Quick Taco Salad
Quinoa Tabouli Style with Falafel and Tofu Tahini Sauce
Spinach Salad with Apple, Almond and Miso, Apricot, and Lime Dressing
Seitan Parmesan
I will be back tomorrow to start getting caught up on the recipes (which I did document as I was cooking or I would forget them). Since Dan didn’t work this weekend I am expecting he will be working late during the week, giving me plenty of time to get caught up on the blog.
I hope you all had a fabulous weekend.

Hey VE!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is really hard to not blog after you do it day after day!!
I know sometimes I become completely absorbed in blogging...it is crazy.
Tomorrow I am starting raw....I am freaking out about it too, and I don't know why.
Help!
Welcome back, sounds like a really lovely weekend! Lots of good eats too.
ReplyDeleteLove the new avatar as well!
That miso soup looks incredible! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteSarah,

Thanks for letting me know you like the new avatar.

ReplyDeleteLOL! You are funny! Recipes will follow as soon as I can get them posted.
Dan and I had a great weekend. Very relaxing!
It is nice to be missed. ;)
LJ,
Thanks so much! We had a lovely weekend. Not productive, but sometimes you need those.
Alicia
The Internet can get addictive, Alicia, so it's good to back off sometimes and do other things. :)
ReplyDeleteAll of the food you made looks very tempting, especially the miso soup. I restocked my dried shiitake supply yesterday so now I can make mushroom stock again, and I think I'll make miso soup for lunch.
Andrea,
ReplyDeleteI agree the internet can take over. It is probably going to take a week for me to catch up from being off-line for two days. That is so crazy. But it was worth it we had a great weekend.
I love miso soup and my dried mushroom variation is my hubby's favorite hands down. Glad I could inspire your lunch.
Alicia
Heather,
ReplyDeleteHow did I miss replying to your comment? I am not back into the swing of things obviously.
Taco salad makes regular appearances at our house. We like the crunch of the chips with the salad. We assume as long as we don't overdo on the chips it is still a healthy lunch.
We had a wonderful weekend. So very relaxing. It was nice. We should do that more often.
talk to you later,
Alicia
Looks like one yummy weekend!
ReplyDeleteRose,
ReplyDeleteWe spent the weekend lounging, but there had to be food. ;-)
Alicia
You were missed! I hope you enjoyed your no blogging weekend, though :-)
ReplyDeleteThat seitan Parmesan looks amazing! Will you be sharing the recipe? Hint, hint, lol!
Courtney
Courtney,
ReplyDeleteAh thanks! Of course I will be sharing the seitan parm recipe. It is an easy one. In essence it was the seitan with quinoa, a raw sun-dried tomato marinara and a pine nut and macadamia nut cheese. It was an easy make ahead meal. Don't you just love those? They are my favorites. I will be posting the details soon.
