Baked, battered, and pan-fried tofu squares with sides of cous cous and corn. The cous cous is seasoned with Earth Balance vegan butter and lemon pepper, the corn is seasoned with lime juice and cayenne. The batter/breading for the tofu is Hooters brand, I believe. (I know, it sort of grosses me out that it's Hooters brand, but the seasoning is pretty good.)
I'm vegan and often get the question: What do you eat? Hopefully this blog can answer that.
My goal is to show that being vegan is possible and can be inexpensive. It can also be really expensive - just like any person's dietary preference/needs. I also really enjoy showcasing both chain and independent restaurants with vegan options as well as products that are vegan.

Grilled Turkey and Guacamole Sandwich
This was my brilliant plan. I've been obsessed with grilled sandwiches lately. I've been buttering and grilling every sandwich. Then...I grilled a sandwich with just gracamole because we were out of chips. It was awesome. Will be making that in the future to accompany a tomato soup of some sort. Or Gazpacho!
Anyway, this is simply guacamole spread between two pieces of bread, with slices of tofurky deli meat layered in between. There are also sauteed onions added for good measure. The true genius is in the grilling: Earth balance spread on the outside, as well as a good dash of cumin and cayenne. Really tasty and crispy. Excellent!
