Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes and Spaghetti
We had spent some time over at Nick's parents and we decided to have them over for dinner and make what we originally planned (sweet potatoes) and what they planned (spaghetti) for dinner. The twice baked sweet potatoes had sour cream, butter, and brown sugar in them. We topped them off with some walnuts. The spaghetti was a cappellini pasta with some tomato basil sauce and parmesan. It was a random and spontaneous get together but it was good nonetheless. :)

May 18, 2012- Orange Glazed Tofu
Orange Glazed Tofu- Vegan
This is one of our favorite ways to have tofu. Since we can't have orange chicken we have this instead and it is really good! You sautee tofu in olive oil and then make a sauce out of orange juice, orange marmalade, soy sauce, garlic, rice vinegar, and some corn starch dissolved in water. We serve this over basmati rice. It is really easy to make and also vegan!

May 17, 2012- Out to Dinner- Fresh Choice
Fresh Choice
We went to Fresh Choice for dinner after Nick had physical therapy. We really like going to Fresh Choice because we can each get things that we like. I also really like getting a really big salad. Yum!

May 15, 2012- BBQ Tofu with Roasted Veggies
BBQ Tofu with Roasted Veggies- Vegan
Tonight we had BBQ Tofu with Roasted Veggies. We bake the tofu for about 15 minutes, flipping it after about 10 and then add some BBQ sauce and bake for about 5 more. For the roasted veggies, we use our stoneware pan and we do green beans, sweet potatoes, a red pepper, onions, and brussel sprouts. We drizzle them with olive oil and a little salt and pepper. We usually bake them for about 30-40 minutes. It just depends on how done you like your veggies.

May 14, 2012- Chickpea Broccoli Burgers- Vegan
Chickpea Broccoli Burgers- Vegan
These are a delicious veggie burger that we have been making for years. They are really tasty and simple to make. To make them you combine broccoli, sauteed onions, chickpeas, and couscous in a food processor. The onions are flavored with cumin so you get a nice flavor. You then form patties and bake them for about 45-50 minutes. We serve them with hummus and flatbread. We forgot to take a picture but we eat these pretty regularly so we should be able to take a picture when we have them again.

May 13, 2012- Riagtoni with Cheese
Riagtoni with Cheese
This is one of our favorite pasta dishes to make. It is originally a crock pot meal but we decided to start making it in the oven. You combine cooked (al dente) rigatoni pasta with a can of cream of mushroom and some cheddar cheese. You also add in salt, pepper, and oregano. You top it with a mixture of bread crumbs and parmesan. You drizzle melted butter and bake covered for about 15 minutes and uncovered for about 10-15 minutes until browned. It is so delicious. Again, we forgot to take a picture, but we have this one every other month or so. It is soooo good. :)
