what the hell _does_ a vegan eat anyway?

Lunch 1/08

Grilled "Cheese" Sandwich

Chips and Salsa

Our daughter who is eight, didn't want to get left out of the blogging about the Vegan Family Cookbook, so she had her turn in the kitchen with today's lunch. The "cheese" (pg. 139) is soy milk, uncooked oatmeal, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt, paprika, almond butter (or peanut butter) and cornstarch.

We made small batch to start... the cornstarch did it's job and it really did end up having that melted "gooey" texture. It needed a bit more "character" so for the second batch we upped the nutritional yeast and added smoked paprika. The adults loved it, the kids... well, we'll work on it some more... ;)
