And, here's some of what I've been making and eating recently...
Cocoa-Goji Granola (yep, new recipe). Crunchy, sweet but not sickly-sweet (as are most commercial granola varieties). And, kidlets enjoy eating it and watching their milk turn "chocolate". Personally, I like eating it
straight up! (that brings back memories!)
Marinated tempeh that's been grilled on the bbq along with
zukes and peppers. Man, we love grilled veggies! And, the tempeh was delicious too. When tempeh is seasoned and cooked just right, it is far better than tofu in taste
and texture (in my opinion). Served it with short-grain brown rice (so comforting and chewy yummy), and my "
Peanut Passion Sauce" from
eat, drink & be vegan
. Oh, and the tempeh is also a new recipe, I just have absolutely no name for it right now!
Perhaps in the back of our minds we already understand, without all the science I've discussed, that something terribly wrong is happening. Our sustenance now comes from misery. ... We perhaps know more than we care to admit, keeping it down in the dark places of our memory - disavowed. When we eat factory-farmed meat we live, literally, on tortured flesh. Increasingly, that tortured flesh is becoming our own. (Source: Eating Animals
