Veganomicon Snobby Joes




We had left-over Snobby Joes for lunch today - the mr. is home because he's sick. This was my second time making them and they turned out much better this time - I'm not sure why, but I think it's related to making sure they were hot when I served them, and increasing the amount of chili pepper (which I'm increasingly fond of these days).

Actually, I did a lot of kitcheny things yesterday: I made scrambled tofu for breakfast, and some maple-walnut cookies for a post-lunch snack, both from Vegan with a Vengeance. I really liked the maple-molasses combo in the cookies, and tried it on some oatmeal today for breakfast. Good way to 'break' the strong taste of molasses with additional sweetness.

Things I'm thinking of making:
Cabbage rolls - Vegan Dad said he would be making some soon, and I have some cabbage that I'd like to use up.

This recipe for Irish soda bread. It sounds so easy, and I've been wanting to make bread forever.

Calzones stuffed with white beans, inspired by this recipe & the helpful veganizing suggestion from Rose-Anne in the comments.

that looks like a great lunch.

thanks for the review on the maple cookies. I am a huge maple fan.

Their maple cupcakes from cupcakes take over the world are also really really good. I didn't make their maple frosting yet, so I'm excited to try that.
