Year 2, Day 9

April 29

Making dinner can be scary! Lol

Day 351

April 7

I was right. These rainbow veggie skewers were SO good!

Red grape tomatoes
Red bell pepper
Orange bell pepper
Yellow bell pepper
Yellow squash
Green bell pepper
Green zucchini
Purplish red onion
Purple potatoes
Crimini  (baby portobello) mushrooms (OK, so those don't fit the rainbow, but they were amazing!)

Marinated in olive oil, garlic, balsamic vinegar, and salt before skewering and roasting in the oven at 425 for about  17 minutes. So, so good!

Day 331

March 18

I try not to post *too* many food pictures, but this one had to be shared. I tried a vegan black bean burger recipe for the first time. Oh my goodness, were these ever tasty!

Here's the recipe. I added about 3 cloves of garlic instead of 1, and flipped them over after baking 8 minutes, and gave them about 5 more minutes. I also turned on the broiler for a couple minutes at the end. Everybody loved them, even Hannah. I'll definitely make them again.

Day 323

Hannah made corn bread for dinner tonight. It was very good!

Day 279

January 25

Making fresh from-scratch portabella ravioli with Charlie.

Day 275

January 21

Sarah, cooking dinner.  I'm pretty sure those are onions but I can't remember now what she fixed.

Day 233

December 10

Sarah made biscuits for dinner tonight. They came out beautifully. She has to stick her tongue out to concentrate, like her mama.

Day 225

December 2

Hannah made vegetable pasta soup and grilled cheese for home ec class tonight.

Day 220

Sarah made salsa mac for dinner tonight. Yum!

Day 219

Hannah made veggie-BLT sandwiches for dinner. Well, breakfast strips, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, alfalfa sprouts, avocado sandwiches.

Day 218

Hannah got caught licking the casserole dish after dinner.  Guess it was tasty!

Day 212

Hannah is making cornbread to go with dinner.

Day 206

November 12

Sarah made veggie-BLT sandwiches for dinner. With cucumbers, avocado, and sprouts, too. Yum!

Day 197

Take a 9x13 of vegan macaroni & "cheese" leftovers, add some carrots, onions, celery, and McKay's "chicken" seasoning, a little bit of soy curls, diced potatoes, and a good bit of water, and you end up with a bowl of soup that tastes even better than the Macaroni did in the first place. And the Macaroni was pretty good!  So "repairing" these leftovers was well worth it!

Day 192

October 29

Sarah's turn to make dinner. She wanted to make mac n cheese but we're trying to switch to vegan so we made the Macaroni Not Cheese from the Engine 2 Diet website. It was really pretty good. I didn't miss the cheese at all.

Day 31

On a day as crazy busy as today was, I'm doing good to get a picture of the sandwich I made for dinner.
