Every now and then I hear something on the Food Network that I want to try. And every now then I think I’m going to regret it. That was my dinner several nights ago when I decided that I wanted to try a mocahete, which I was pretty sure was a fantastic Mexican dish (in actual fact, it’s…
So I’m vegan. I don’t really talk about it too much on Blog Well Done because I am afraid I might scare off some of my hypothetical readers. I wasn’t always vegan but got inspiration from, vegan4k.com. In fact, when I was still doing blogspot.wordpress.com, I was a carnivore, though given that my wife was…
Even though I said I’d be doing a lot of Chinese cookery over in the blog, tonight I decided to finally break down and make my own refried beans. I found this little article on how to make them. The article described a fast way and a slow to make them. I went with the…
Chinese cooking has long been an topic at which I have turned up my nose. For many years, I was awash in a sea of Panda Expresses, crab rangoon filled with Philadelphia cream cheese, and MSG-laden Chinese buffets. A lot of that had to do with college. During those four years, I looked at Chinese…
Over on I Am The Animal, I wrote about a new seitan recipe I created. The recipe came about because I wanted some spicy asian food, but I didn’t have any sambal or sriracha. So I used lots of red pepper flake. Here is the recipe: Red Pepper Seitan. If you have never heard of seitan…
Tonight we went to my favorite sushi place…Shogun in Overland Park, KS. (Yes, Kansas seems an odd place for the mecca of sushi, but I’ve eaten sushi in every town I visit. Shogun is best, though Maki in Irvine, CA isn’t too shabby.) So there’s only one problem…I’m vegan. I do have an ace up…
Okay, there’s a big part of me that feels a certain culinary snobbery should prevent me from being as happy about this as I am, but I can’t help it. I made ketchup. My wife was making vegan meatloaf (which was really quite excellent, especially when topped with my ketchup…) when she realized that we were out…
I don’t get it. I really don’t understand. At a time when I should be loading my body with fresh fruits and vegetables and all the vitamins and minerals that entails, all I want to do is eat two things: hot and sour soup and friend wontons. This has been the meal of choice for…
I joined a blog pack last night. Now…to start blogging. Welcome everyone from the blog pack. I promise to be far more active now than in the past.
Hi everyone, I have decided to go Vegan for 90 days and working out at least 5 times per week during that 90 day period. I am journeling my missteps, trials, tribulations, and hopefully successes at http://iamtheanimal.blogspot.com I will still be posting to this here blog, at least as much as I have done recently.
