Adventures in vegan cuisine

[kajarainbow]

Today, I ate a vegetable I'd never ate. Something called "Bok Choy". More or less some sort of vaguely cabbage-like thing. Pretty good. I stir-fried it with some bean sprouts and a couple of spices, then added a bit of soy sauce toward the end. Rather simple fare, but I enjoyed it. I actually was improvising a little from the recipe in the vegan cookbook I had; I used a couple of ingredients not in the recipe and didn't use a couple in the recipe.

Speaking of which, I did something I'd been leaning toward for a long while and finally really went vegan. Mostly.

This is the first time I've actually cooked in this house.

Memo to myself: wash the dishes after I wake up tomorrow.

Woo, congrats. Bok choy is pretty good... haven't had it for a while.

Mmmmm...bok choy is delish...and this is coming from an omnivore. =^.^=

VeganMonster? XD

I think it's particularly funny you chose that avatar image for the post.


Anywho I'm pretty sure I've had Bok Choy at chinese buffets before, and it was good.

Believe me, I consciously choose that avatar for just that precise effect. And, yes, I'm aware of the irony in being a vegan monster. My housemate's a meat-eating bunny (among other things). Just means I play with my meat instead of eating it, really. ;)

Being a fan of Evangelion, that icon creeps me out to no end. Mmm, Lilim-steaks.
