Xmas Dinner

So what is a vegan foodie blog sans vegan food pix porn? Yeeeesssss, I hear you cry, we want pictures! So here we go....this was our Christmas dinner:

Skipping merrily past the massacred carcasses of our animal friends, we opted for a good stuffed tofu, lemon roasted potatoes, and a medley (as they would say in restaurant-speak) of vegetables in a baked acorn squash. Relying heavily upon Isa, Colleen and Sarah we managed to produce the following...

Marinated and stuffed tofu:





The tofu had been marinated in a 'beef' stock from Sarah Kramer's book 'La Dolce Vegan' and we stuffed it with TVP, brown rice and sun-dried tomatoes. Next we made the lemon and red onion roasted potatoes and baked the acorn squash:






These were ridiculously simple to do, but the presentation is really cute and there's something fun about being able to eat the bowl your vegetables come in! Anyhow, we sauteed off a batch of mixed veg - sweetcorn, edamame, onions, garlic, etc etc etc - and stuffed it into the baked squash.


See here:






and ta-da!





But this is the end result:





Smiles all around! Bon Appetit!
