Eggplant sandwich

 I haven’t made eggplant like this in years. You mix vegan mayo and Dijon mustard together and then you coat eggplant slices and cover with panko. Bake for about 25-30 minutes flipping halfway. I served them in a toasted French roll with vegan mayo, arugula spinach salad and a quick relish made with pickles, onions, kalamata olives and pickled jalapeños.

Scouse

 Instead of Irish stew I made Blind Scouse in the crockpot which is a vegetarian version of Scouse stew from Liverpool. Since Liverpool has deep Irish roots it seems appropriate to have this to eat today. We will enjoy this with crusty bread and a Guinness! Then followed by Irish Whisky Tullamore Dew! ☘️🍲🍻🥃

Tea and Soup for sickness.

 Dealing with a cough and respiratory stuff. Made a great tea combo of greek mountain tea plus lemon ginger herbal tea.





Lunch: Ezogelin Corbasi, a Turkish red lentil, bulgur and rice soup. It’s so good! Recipe from @mamaghanouj_kitchen.

Vegan tagine

 Vegan Moroccan tagine served on couscous. One of my favorite meals on rotation when I need to use up a whole bunch of veggies. This one has: carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, jalapeño peppers, red bell peppers, cabbage, chickpeas and mushrooms.

Chilaquiles

 I made chilaquiles today from The Whole Chile Pepper Book and they turned out great. I had them for lunch with a side of beans. #chilaquiles #thewholechilepepperbook

New Mexican Green Chile Stew


 A vegan New Mexican green chile stew that I adapted from The Southwest Table. I used 1/2 lb. ground @beyondmeat, 1 or so cup of cooked white beans, mushrooms, cumin, Mexican oregano, a 7 oz can of green Chiles and about a TB of Hatch Green Chile powder (100% Chiles, no filler!). It’s delicious with a squeeze of lime and hot tortillas on the side. I’m definitely adding this to my menu rotation. #greenchilestew #newmexico #southwest #thesouthwesttable #vegan

Kabocha sandwich

 My sandwich looks kinda crazy but it was delicious! I cooked slices of kabocha squash with olive oil, curry powder, salt, pepper and panko crumbs in the Airfryer for 20 minutes. Then I served it in a toasted bun with creamy curry coleslaw (vegan mayo, curry powder, agave, lemon, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper) and sweet pickled jalapeños. #kabochasandwich #kabochasquash #vegan
