What this blog is and what it isn't

This is a food blog with recipes and ideas for using the seasonal vegetables from your garden, friend's gardens and community supported agriculture shares (CSA). If you haven't checked out a CSA in your area, it is worth your time to check out what is available to you, and LOCAL HARVEST is a great place to start.

I am trying oh so hard to become a Forks over Knives type vegan, with no animal products of any kind and no added oil. I have given up meat, fish, dairy, eggs and most processed foods and am moving toward the goal of no oil. While you will find eggs, dairy and oil in my earlier recipes, the goal is not to use them anymore.

Some of my earlier recipes include dairy and eggs, but I am moving away from that, I am endeavoring to create delicious all vegan no fat added recipes.

Veg Egg Bake


Great way to use cherry tomatoes and peppers that are coming in this time of year
Feeds 8

6 eggs
1/4 C milk (almond, soy, or skim, all types would work fine, you could also use water)

4 veg sausage patties, crumbled (I used Morningstar Farms, you could use any)
Handful of cherry tomatoes chopped
1 C mushrooms, chopped
1 large bunch green onion (chopped including greens)
1/2 pepper, chopped (red, yellow, orange, green, any would work)
3 oz cheese ( I used goat, but any cheese, to include veg cheese would work)
4 slices toasted bread (homemade if you are so inclined, otherwise any toasted bread would work)
salt, pepper, red pepper flakes

Preheat oven to 375.

Spray 9x12" baking dish with cooking spray or lightly oil.

Line bottom of baking dish with toasted bread. You may have to cut the bread to get it all to fit properly.

In a medium bowl crack the eggs, and whip really well with a wire whisk. Add milk and continue whipping until the mixture forms bubbles. Add salt (about 1/4 tsp.) pepper (about 1/4 tsp.) and a sprinkle of pepper flakes.

Add all chopped veg, crumbled cheese and crumbled sausage patties to the eggs and give a stir.

Pour over toast slices.

Bake for 40-50 minutes.

Let stand 10 minutes before cutting.

*You can add different veg and/or omit any veg you dislike.
