Tempeh Sausage

by Emmy on March 19, 2012

I’m not sure why I never tried the Tempeh Sausage recipe before from the New Farm Vegetarian Cookbook.  It’s a good cookbook and I love the cornbread recipe from it. I picked up some English Muffin Bread and decided I wanted some “soysage” to go with it. I looked through a few of my cookbooks and this recipe fit the bill: I had all the ingredients on hand. It is pretty simple to put together and the patties held together. During the last minute of cooking, I added some Daiya Cheddar Cheese to top of each patty and covered the pan with foil. I lightly toasted the English Muffin Bread.  It was a yummy and hearty breakfast. I used to make something similar with the Ezekiel English Muffins, but they became rather expensive so I rarely buy them anymore.

Kung Pao Broccoli and Tofu

by Emmy on March 5, 2012

I’ve made the King Pao Broccoli and Tofu recipe twice now from The Blooming Platter Cookbook by Betsy DiJulio.  It is truly delicious and as an added bonus, reheats great the next day for lunch. It is a mix of broccoli, water chestnuts, green onions, tofu, and spices in a tasty sauce. For the peppers, I used the Tien Tsin Chili Peppers from Penzeys.  The recipe isn’t very hard to prepare and it goes a lot faster when I have Rob prepping the green onions and broccoli while I tend to the tofu and sauce. I’m going to be making this recipe more often.
