A Vegetarian Mistake
9 Views - 0 comments
So I was in Lansing, MI this past week/weekend to check out my law school and look for a place to live. I decided to try a Mexican food restaurant near my hotel to see what it was like North of Texas. Do I believe Bowling for Soup or not.
Mayan Waffles (vegan)

I have always loved experimenting in the kitchen and I have been a dietetic (health reasons as opposed to moral/ethical) vegan for a little over a year now -- while my diet has expanded to encompass vegetarian choices at present because my budget is somewhat limited while on the job search (^-^) I do plan on following vegan guidelines again as soon as possible, but I figured I'd share the wisdom I've garnered over my year-long journey as the Big V.
Today I've decided to share my own recipe for home-made, Mayan Waffles; chocolate with a little kick to get you going in the morning (but don't let me limit you -- some of my best dinners have circled around breakfast foods). The special equipment you'll need for this recipe is a handy waffle iron. If you can't find yours or don't have one available, feel free to turn waffle day into pancake day!
Ingredients:
1 ripe banana
2 cups soy milk
.5 cup oatmeal
1.5 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
.5 cup baking cocoa*
.25 cup vegan chocolate, shaved
cayenne pepper
*for a richer, more intense depth of flavor, replace .25 cup baking cocoa with .25 cup vegan hot chocolate mix.

Creating a Vegetarian Pantry
I was working on creating my own vegetarian pantry and I decided to share with you!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NON-PERISHABLE DRY GOODS
Beans, canned: Look for good-quality beans, without additives, or better yet, organic canned or jarred beans from natural food stores or co-ops, including your favorites from the following:
Black beans
Black-eyed peas
Chickpeas (garbanzos)
Great northern beans (cannellini)
Pink beans
Pinto beans
Red or kidney beans
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beans, dried: If you're inclined to cook beans from scratch, I don't object. Black beans, adzuki beans, and navy beans are particularly good cooked from scratch; there's also pink, kidney, red, and large white beans; brown and red lentils, and split peas.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chilies, green, in 4 or 7-ounce cans, chopped, mild or hot, as preferred
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grains: If you are going to store whole grains at room temperature, don't buy more than what you will use up in about 3 months.

This dish is inspired by the classic Mediterranean-Italian pasta puttanesca. Puttanesca traditionally calls for anchovies, but the recipe below excludes them, making it the perfect weeknight dinner for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike. The meal is wholesome enough for either, with beefy tomatoes, bright, bold flavors and al dente linguine. RSS Feed
