Welcome to Litsy!

This is what happens when I have nobody else to feed in the house - vegan sauce! Nothing pretty to look at, but it‘s very tasty and easy.

I ate it with veggies for dinner last night because again, not pleasing anyone else. 😂 #Mtcookbook

My cookbook review is on my YouTube channel:

Short version: I‘m not here for the unscientific “detox” and “water with meals slows digestion” but there are lots of excellent recipes, beautifully photographed.

Just came across the #MtCookbook tag and decided that it‘s about time for me to give my cookbook shelves some attention. I think my goal will be to decide to either #readordonate ten cookbooks by the end of the year. Most of these have been fun to collect, but I‘ve only used a handful of recipes in them, as I look online a lot for the recipes I use. These aren‘t all my cookbooks, but this is the bulk of them. Since I need to start eating ⬇️

Win some, lose some. These “cupcakes” had fabulous flavor, but the texture was chewy & doughy. My fault surely for using whole wheat & white flour. I will try again with oat flour. Also, I have no intention of making the tofu frosting. (Too much fuss for me.) Just a light lime glaze will be enough. To be fair, Jane does disclose these aren‘t the light & fluffy cupcakes people have come to expect. They‘re more akin to dense muffins.

#mtcookbook - I‘m trying an approach that worked this week- Soup is my favorite food- and i love Paprika and mushrooms but wanted hearty vs a pre meal soup- so I added potato, cabbage, onion, garlic, white beans and kale- It worked!!!! I‘m calling it my Hungarian-Irish Stew. And it was a win with my mom and son too!

A #Sultry vegan cookbook from my collection. The subtitle is: “200 Sultry and Savory Global Recipes.” I have the 2008 version tagged but I think the 2014 revised cover is more “sultry.” I tagged the retitled/revised version below.

My #mtcookbook goal is one new recipe a month to get back into the habit of cooking from scratch (ish) and make it fun again. This cookbook was on my Litsy TBR so I borrowed it from the library. I was excited to find this soup recipe because I‘ve actually been searching for red lentil options besides Dahl and not finding them. It came out pretty well, but I‘m not sure what tweaks I‘d want to make before adding it to my regular repertoire.👇🏼

A huge ray of compassionate sunshine, Esther The Wonder Pig depicts the (true!) love story between two men and their sassy 650-pound pet pig who altered the trajectory of their lives for the better and inspired them (and countless others from all over the world!) to live an Esther Approved lifestyle. Witty, packed full of laughs, tears, piggy antics, and tantrums, is an ode to the famous, not-so-little princess who became an Internet sensation! 🐷

Making plans for #veganuary 🥗

My favorite cookbook! The recipe for the homemade kidney bean vegan chorizo is a staple in our house, featuring here in my hearty bean soup 🍠 #midwintersolace #naturalitsy #fridaynightshare
