Everyone knows I love a good loaf. So I have of course made the lemon blueberry loaf from <a href="http://www.theppk.com/2013/10/isa-does-it-book-tour-2013/">Isa Does It</a> many times since testing last year. With a newly thrifted $4 mini loaf pan and an orange in the fridge that had seen its better days I decided to change the recipe up a wee bit and make blueberry orange mini loaf. Most delicious!<br />
Isa will be at <a href="http://www.powells.com/">Powell's in Portland, Oregon</a> Monday, November 18, at 7:30 pm for a Q & A and book signing. Don't miss out!<br />

Noodles! Such a tasty bowl you had for lunch. Chock full of noodley goodness with carrots and some broccoli and a delightful peanut sauce. But that doesn't translate in a photo of mostly drab beige ensconced in your plastic take out container as you sit at your construction site looking forward to going home to sew Feminism Now patches. <br />

This photo needs help!<br />

It is chock full of Amey's fabulous drawings with recipes from a number of speakers from the con. All you have to do to enter is to leave a comment here. Contest ends September 28 at 11:59 pm PST. Please make sure I have a way to contact you through the comment you leave.<br />

I love me some food wrapped up in other food. So tasty. A classic example of this is the pig in a blanket. Now, this is a vegan blog so the only pigs in blankets are the ones sleeping at Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary in the big barn. But take any old veggie dog and wrap it with some dough or crescent dough and you go from a boring meal to a fun event in which your tastebuds will be wowed.<br />
<br />
But what's with that food porn photo from your bocce potluck? A pile of wrapped dogs in a limpid tupperware that doesn't showcase the fun of eating food wrapped in other food.<br />

Chickpeas! So tasty, so versatile! The chickpea salad recipe from Vegan With a Vengeance is one of my favourites. Hijiki is where it is at.<br />
<br />
But what horror is this? You end up with is a big tan mash with some delicate black highlights. And a strip of blue in the back because it's part of your tupperware and you didn't want to sacrifice any of that pile o' tan to crop it out.<br />

Slap a copyright on it! Choose a bright color that contrasts and can't be missed. Now you mean business and people are going to take this blog seriously. And big ol' bonus! Now no one can use your photo because it's got your name emblazoned across the bottom. <br /><br />

I was fortunate to attend the <a href="http://vidavegancon.com/">Vida Vegan Con</a> Fun Time Extravaganza this past May. And I was able to pick up an extra copy of Amy's Vida Vegan Con 2013 Cookbooklette, which features recipes from a number of Vida speakers. (Check out <a href="http://veganeatsandtreats.blogspot.com/">Amy's blog Vegan Eats and Treats</a> and her Noshtalgia theme for MoFo.)I thought MoFo would be a grand time to give away a copy of the zine, so all you lucky readers have a chance to get in on this. I'll ship worldwide. No need to like or follow or offer bribes (cookies, you say?). Just leave me a comment and make sure there is a way to get in touch with you. Contest closes at 11:59 pm PST this Saturday, Sept. 7.<br />

Oh heavens! What horror is this? A delicious batch of simmered seitan, straight from that must have cookbook Vegan With a Vengeance. But the flash! The brownness! The lack of any color whatsoever. The 50 year old Revere Ware (for life, baby) instead of a Fancy Pot from Fancy Store.<br />

Happy Halloween y'all! Paul and I carved pumpkins this weekend and were pleased with how they turned out. <br /><br />panda with cookiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01577743164633869792noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4428596800391588724.post-90574502127964661162012-10-29T08:00:00.000-04:002012-10-29T17:11:56.924-04:00Isa Does It Testers: Ginger Chocolate Cookies<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I do love a good cookie. And you can't go wrong with ginger and cocoa powder and a mix of white and chocolate chips. I realized with this post that I have focused a lot on baked goods testers but the majority of the book is quick and easy savories not sweets. I just happened to have my camera out whilst baking on a sunny day as opposed to trying to take a half lit photo of a half eaten bowl of the amazing kale and quinoa stew at 7pm. <br />

I don't see this restaurant mentioned a lot in Portland but <a href="http://papagees.com/">Papa G's</a> has become one of my favourite places to visit. They are an all vegan, all organic deli and restaurant located on SE Division Street near 24th. They have a full menu to order from as well as some cold salads, daily specials, desserts, and a by the pound salad bar. You can find their flavoured tofus in local stores like Food Fight and People's Co-op.<br />
<br />
I most enjoy the plate pictured above, which features locally made tempeh with gravy, mac and cheese and beets. The tofus and mashed potatoes are all tasty as well. The staff has always been super nice when we go in and they have ample seating to enjoy a quick crossword puzzle. panda with cookiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01577743164633869792noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4428596800391588724.post-63645731913277776622012-10-26T08:00:00.000-04:002012-10-26T08:00:02.468-04:00Friday Fun Waffle Time<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
