How I've done so far and what's coming up

Well a quick review of how yesterday's dinner went, my Spicy Tofu Bento Bowl didn't quite go as planned.  First, I couldn't find a ripe avocado for the life of me, second, I forgot to cook the rice for the dish and then I noticed I had no yoghurt.  So my dish ended up being a spicy tofu salad and it turned out pretty good.  For lunch yesterday, Leya and I had President's Choice Meatless Chicken Strips in a quesadilla. All in all, the meatless chicken strips were not bad, so far the best I have tasted.  And we had carrot sticks with Ranch dip, I am looking for a vegan Ranch dip if anyone has any suggestions, please pass along.  So today I am going to make some home made bread, and the polenta lasagna.  Might be a little more work then I would like, but I am anticipating that it will be pretty good. 

Nov. 19th, is pizza night, I make home made pizza dough and freeze it.  A whole bunch of veggies for me and the daughter and salami and cheese for the son.  Dad is at a meeting that night.

Nov. 20th is curry night, I LOVE CURRY!  This to me is a no brainer vegetarian dish.  You can add what ever you want.  We love Deep Fried Tofu, which I can only find at Superstore and some great rice.  Unfortunately my husband only likes white rice.  I am going to start making brown rice and freezing it for myself.

One of my favourite cookbooks for Asian cooking is Wok It.  It was a $4.99 discount special at Chapters and I use it all the time.  I constantly substitute deep fried tofu for the meat in most of the recipes.  It has a wonderful vegetarian spring roll recipe that I have tried and my husband (Chinese) says it's not too bad.  A great compliment coming from him. 

Well that's what I got for today, any comments would be great, any recipes as well.  Have a great day!
