Mondays I usually don't have to go to work until 2 so I have a nice morning to spend doing whatever I please. My cousin Oraphan
(of Easy Veggie blog) and I can never synch our schedules to get together so we decided to do morning breakfast today which worked out perfectly. I had a simple but tasty menu planned: scrambled tofu with kale, sesame sprouted grain toast, fresh fruit and hot tea. She brought beautiful cranberry scones and chickpea blondies (to die for!). We ate a whole lot and really enjoyed everything, especially getting the chance to spend time together and talk about food, being veggie and life in general. I wish we can do this more often! Thank you cousin for spending your morning with me! I <3 you!

Oraphan's your cousin!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE her blog and it's so cool you are related. Are any more of your family veggie?
That Breakfast looks totally scrummy.
:)
That all looks so delicious! I love cranberries in anything. What's that sauce on your scramble?
ReplyDeleteI am crazy intrigued by the Chickpea Blondies - I will be attempting these this weekend!
ReplyDeleteJeni,
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm so lucky to have Oraphan as my cousin. I love her so much! We are the only veggies in our family. We talked about how in Thai cooking there is a lot of meat. I wish there were more of us over on the veggie side. :)
Mary,
The sauce is a combo of vegan mayo, ketchup, dijon mustard and black pepper. Adjust to your tastes. It's great on tofu scramble!
marciferous,
Those blondies blew my mind! I ate about four pieces! Ask Oraphan, she witnessed it!
OMG! You are super fast, kmouse! How did you do this post when you had only 10 minutes to get ready to go to work??? Your are so amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so very much again and again for having me this morning, I really enjoyed every single bite of my breakfast. And I had so much fun chatting with you, time passed by so quickly, didn't it?
Oraphan,
ReplyDeleteI am very quick when it comes to posting on my blog. I can probably do it blindfolded!
Yes time past by way too fast!
That looks like an awesome breakfast, I wish therir was someone even close to vegetarian in my family!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! I adore Celine's chickpea blondies.
