Pine Nut Crusted Tofu stuffed with Pesto and Slow Roasted Tomato
Filed in Dinner, Vegan, Vegetarian, 19/04/2010, 09:36I’m particularly proud of this post because this dish was very experimental. Usually experimental attempts go very wrong.

Polenta Casserole
Filed in Dinner, Gluten Free, Vegetarian, 21/11/2009, 21:26I buy the polenta that comes in one of those jimmy-dean-sausage-tube looking things. Because it’s easy, and tastes yummy. You can find it in the vegetable section, strangely. It has to be refrigerated- maybe that’s why? The influence of this dish came from ALBION COOKS.

Smokey Potatoes with Roast Tomatoes, Facon, and Cilantro Pesto
Filed in Dinner, Gluten Free, Uncategorized, Vegan, Vegetarian, 26/10/2009, 23:23Another versatile recipe useful for getting rid of whatever you’ve got lying around. In this case I used potatoes and tomatoes with sauteed onions, mushrooms and FACON (use bacon if you must). The smokey flavor emanates from Spanish Smoked Paprika. If you can’t get a hold of this spice, maybe try using some liquid smoke.. [...]
