I froze a few cutlets that I made from the yellow rose recipes http://www.yellowroserecipes.com/. They reheated beautifully. I had some broth heating up, so I plopped them in it to thaw them. Dredged them a little flour and seasoned salt, and sauteed in a little olive oil. Then made a quick gravy with the brothContinue reading “Pantry Raid day 12-More chicken style cutlets….”

So I had a bag of Bob’s Redmill masa harina hanging around the pantry and I thought I’d try my hand at tortillas. What a disaster. The recipe on the package says 2 cups masa harina and 1 cup water, adding a few TBS more water if needed. I’ve made tortillas before with my mom’sContinue reading “Pantry Raid day 10 – Tortilla disaster = Crepes!”

OK, this is version 2. Lessons learned from version 1: too much liquid makes it fall apart, too much spices is better. What I’m trying to replicate is RAPA scrapple from Sussex county Delaware. I know scrapple is supposed to be a Pennsylvania thing, but believe you me, slower Delawareans love their scrapple. This isContinue reading “Pantry Raid Day 9 – Vegan Scrapple!”

OMG, two things not generally vegan that taste great together. Pizza topped with buffalo chix and blue sheese. I gotta eat this now… It’s just pizza dough, sauce, marinated chicken style seitan, blue sheese I got from Food Fight!, and a little basil tofu. There are a bazillion basic pizza dough recipes, this is whatContinue reading “Pantry Raid day 8 – Buffalo pizza”

I forgot my lunch today and my boss was supposed to take me to a lunch meeting, but we got busy. So, I managed to survive on some snacks I had in the office. Oatmeal with raisins, sesame stix, trail mix, fruit leather, vegetable broth, a granola bar and a larabar. Now, that’s actually plentyContinue reading “Pantry Raid day 7 – Pasta again”

Slice thin and marinate 3-4 chicken style seitan cutlets in fajita marinade. Saute 1/2 onion and 1/2 green pepper in a little oil. Add marinated seitan and saute until browned. Toast a tortilla, add filling, a little rice and beans, roll up and enjoy! Or put a little oil in a cast iron skillet, layContinue reading “Pantry Raid day 6 Fajita burritos”

Last day of roasted veggie, rice, chickpea cutlet lunch bowl. This time I forgot the camera battery. It’s charging at home.

Photographic proof it’s time for a purge. Those plastic tubs get stacked in a closet in my 1 bedroom apt. They are sort of arranged by category. Seriously, I’m like my own intervention. Go Obama/Biden! I wish I could go to Georgetown, DE to the returns day parade. Biden has never missed one and isContinue reading “Pantry Raid day 4 – My own intervention”

Roasted vegetables will last for over a week in the fridge. I know ‘cuz I’m eating them for lunch. Roasted fennel, butternut squash, potatoes, carrots, celery, eggplant, mushroom; much of what went into last weeks Iron Chef stuffed potatoes. Throw in some brown & wild rice, and a chickpea cutlet (what doesn’t go with chickpeaContinue reading “Pantry Raid Day 3 Leftover Lunch”
