some food!

For dinner Dan and I had a homemade pizza and a vegan caesar salad.

Pizza is the easiest dinner. We get the fresh prepared, uncooked dough from Trader Joes, smother it in tomato sauce and top it with whatever left over veggies we have lying around. Tonight we used kale, mushroom, and bell pepper. For those who want a more cheesy pizza you can get non-dairy cheeses, but we usually use crumbled tofu mixed with nutritional yeast and some other spices.


For the caesar I used crispy romaine lettuce. Toasted some Ezekiel bread and seasoned it with olive oil, italian herbs, and paprika for croutons and the dressing recipe that I adapted is as follows:

  • 1/2 c. vegainaise (sounds gross, its actually good- and before i went vegan i hated mayonaise)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
  • 1/2 Meyer lemon, juiced
  • 1/4 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Pepper to taste
