Project365 #32

I’ve been vegan for quite a while; but never really fully embraced tofu.

I’ve tried cooking with it a few times, and eaten it when out a number of times, but, for whatever reason, it has never become a staple part of my diet.

That is, until today. Today I experienced scrambled tofu. Only just remembered to take a picture.

I found the recipe online, but did a bit of tweaking.

Ingredients:

  • Half a block of tofu
  • Bit of olive oil
  • Bit of turmeric
  • Bit of nutritional yeast
  • Would have had some black salt in it if I could have found it at the supermarket

Method:

  • Crumble the tofu and fry it in the olive oil for a bit
  • Add the other stuff and fry it some more

Boom.

Incredibly we are 53 days into 2019 already. But more incredibly still, we are coming to the end of the quickest half-term in history. Today’s picture:

Frankie and Benny’s for dinner.

Reasonable vegan offerings. I went for the BBQ pizza with sweet potato fries. Nice.

Although they have seemed to have gone through some sort of rebranding exercise. Not sure if this is a national thing, we visited the Spalding restaurant, but it now appears to be a cross between the old Frankie and Benny’s and McDonalds. Don’t quite get it.

Tonight was chickpea night.

Helen cracked open a tin and got to work on some home-made hummus humous houmous, (actually I’m still not sure now) with roast peppers.

I cracked open another couple of tins, added paprika and chopped up some spinach and lobbed that in. Voila.

This was consumed, with pitta bread and cucumber, in front of the TV watching ‘You’. Just two episodes left to complete the series, I’ve become quite obsessed with Beck and Joe’s relationship.
