There are few things more romantic than Strawberry French Toast. Eating it makes you feel like you're sitting in a bed of roses. Ordinarily, I'm not *that* into French Toast...I always felt it was overrated and never quite understood the hype. That being said I don't dislike it by any means s it's more of a once or twice a year dish.
I found that cutting up the berries on top didn't quite give me as much strawberry as I was looking for. Or maybe it was that we were eating berries early in the season and they weren't quite packed with that flavor. Either way, next time I'll experiment with some kind of puree or sauce. MmmmMmm!
If I recall, this was essentially sour dough bread with a mix of soymilk, flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Meh.

Tofurkey Cheeze Pizza
TA-DAHHH!!!!!!!!!!! TOFURKY PIZZA!
There are 3 glorious flavors but I decided to start at the beginning: Cheese. Tofurky paired up with Daiya on these frozen wonders. I can't help but think to myself how ridiculously loaded those Daiya people must be...where don't they have relationships? This stuff is being stuffed in gardein, tofurky and restaurants everywhere. Genius + delicious = genicious. $6 and change.
I felt kind of embarrassed walking out of Food Fight with this box in my clutches. Not so much for the product but mostly because 1. I'm the type of person who buys frozen pizza and 2. I publicly stand in line like a dork for the latest cheezy vegan things.
I had to laugh to myself at how much this reminds me of brands like Tombstone frozen pizzas. My parents often defaulted to frozen pizza when my sister and I grew up. We'd buy the veggie version though none of us were vegetarian. My mom was convinced the meat varieties were made of "rat meat." I hated the wilty little veggie pie...it was always frozen in the center and so sooo yucky; it was my opinion this never happened with the pepperoni. ANYHOO, the tofurky pizza was looking a little sparse in the center and reminded me of the good ole days. :)
As you can see, the cooked version looks exactly like the baked. It was not bad! I would say this could feed 2 people in a sitting...obviously the pie is MUCH smaller than takeout. My only gripe is that it wasn't very saucy and I like extra sauce typically. NOM!
But honestly, a frozen pizza to heat up in only 10 minutes...that is crazy! Go out and buy some!

I'd die for you, Daiya
Daiya!! When the vegan boyfriend pointed to the glorious package at Whole Foods it was decided: I would write the first blog post on Daiya with their new baggie packaging. Well, I really don't know what happened but several weeks have passed and I hadn't written a word. I haven't seen any posts and I'm perfectly satisfied living in denial so here it is!
Obviously a pizza was in order...look! heirloom tomatoes.
and of course...black bean quesadillas...
voila!

Soft Shell Tacos
Even though there is nothing special about this post, I just really wanted to share the picture. Not because there is anything special about this picture either but I really love Mexican food and soft shell tacos make me happy!! :)
Has anyone else noticed how unbelievably good tofutti sour cream is?!
