Beanie weenies with the weenies being marinated and roasted baby carrots. I never like traditional Frank & Beans as a kid and I didn’t like this either. I’m not a fan of baked beans.

Vegan Crunch Wrap
Made a crunch wrap for the first time. Refried beans, mushrooms, Daiya cheddar shreds, jalapenos, romaine lettuce and salsa. I microwaved the corn tortilla to get it crisp. once wrapped I cooked i skillet for about 3 minutes on each side.

Tofu Chow Fun
Tofu Chow Fun
We both thought this was pretty good. I couldn’t find wide rice noodles (not even at the Asian market) so I used these broken up rice sheets labeled as “rice sticks”. If I make again I’d probably just roast the tofu instead of pan fry.

Fishless Tacos
I tossed hearts of palm in a little oil along with crushed seaweed (snacks), cumin, garlic and onion powders. I then heated/browned them in the skillet.
Served on a flour tortilla and topped with a Vegenaise and Valentina sauce mix and chopped lettuce and onion.
Baked tortilla chips and potato/carrot queso on the side.
Smoky Sweet Potato Soup
Made this in the Instant Pot. It was pretty good. I’m not a big fan of soup or sweet potato. I baked flour tortillas to go along with it.
