dinner Tuesday night


dinner last night was "chicken" (seitan) parmesean with pasta and a big ol' dark green salad. It was amazing! I am loving cooking with this seitan! It is so easy! I just coated it with flour and breadcrumbs and cooked it in a bit of canola oil while the pasta was cooking. It browned up so nice and crispy and the kids wolfed it down! We plated it up over pasta with marinera sauce and a slice of mozzarella (or veg for me!) cheese on top.

We also tried Mochi, a japanese rice puffy thing. It was fun and tasted good with a drizzle of honey on top. They start out as hard squares like a break apart cookie thingy and they you bake them 10 minutes at 450 and they puff up. They are chewy in the middle and really good!

  1. What types/brands of veggie cheese do you reccommend? What about for cheese that you don't want melted? I tried a great one from fresh and easy but other than that Im curious what's out there.
