Thai in twenty

Are you ready for the easiest meal ever? frozen stir-fry veggies + 1/4 cup water extra firm tofu 2 tbsp peanut butter 2 tbsp coconut oil Asian spice mix/Chinese five spices blend (I used 365 Asian seasoning) Add the stir-fry veggies, the water, and the spices until the veggies have thawed.  Then add the rest of the ingredients. Serve over rice.  Bam! – you’re in Bangkok – and dinner is done. 

Toxin removal

Vegas may be a blast, but in my experience, the aftermath is enough to turn you off of the place for at least the next few months.  I feel like the door hit me on the way out…and by hit me, I mean knocked me on my a$$. Not one to dwell on the past, I started Monday fresh and clean.  No point in wallowing in the pits of (booze-infused) despair. Oatmeal with apples, blueberries, and Sunbutter was the perfect morning meal to get my system back on track. I even went for a run,… Read more >

Cach Dung Rice Noodles

How cute is this package?! I have no clue what it says, but dang if it isn’t adorable.  I’m guessing those (not at all Asian) people are doing something in the rice fields…that results in the production of these tasty rice noodles.  Nothing like a nice little tale on your pasta.

Lacking Noodles

I mentioned long ago that our Eugene, Oregon experience wasn’t the most amazing…in fact, I wasn’t even sure it was worth posting about.  But I figured a restaurant review, whether good or bad, is still something others can benefit from.  So here’s the quick and dirty on our one night in Track Town, USA. Despite Tiff’s helpful research (including Yelp! print-outs for vegan friendly restaurants), the dining options in Eugene were beyond minimal.  Each place we went to was closed.  One after another.  In fact, the entire town seemed completely deserted!  It was weird and… Read more >

Seattle continued: Sisters and Skewers

Top of the mornin’ evening to ya!  Day two of our Seattle adventures started with more java loading from The ‘Bucks.  Tall for me, grande for my beau.  How cute is it that Kyle’s drink of choice now is a soy misto? After a liquid kick in the pants, we decided to get ed-ju-ma-cated on the history of Seattle.  Creeping through the depths of downtown worked up quite an appetite.  Lunch time! Initially we had our sights set on an African place called Pan Africa Restaurant on 1st Ave.  We browsed the menu when we… Read more >
