Get in my bowl!

I'm already in my bowl, mom. I likes to mess it up, real good. Mmmmmm. Yep.

Don't mess up your bowl. 

Oatmeal Cookies (from VCIYCJ):

These once hailed from a bowl.

Gardein Meatless Balzzz with LoveYoMomma Marinara*:

And from a bowl also came-eth a Pull Apart Bread from Joni's FFITVK stuffed with VF's Parsley Pesto Ricotta:

*bowl optional.

A bowl filled with ballz.

Bowl, uh, Whole Foods Haul**: 

So many options for your bowl!

Requisite Cat Bomb.

Put Melt in Yo Bowl:

This stuff is awesome!! Find a store that carries it here. I gotta find the Melt Buttery Sticks to bake with because I really don't like EB. Looks like I'm going to ShopRite.

Question: 

What do you call cheese that's not yours...yet is in your bowl?

You guessed it: NOT-CHO CHEESE. 

(It's a vegan queso. There are tons of recipes out there for it, this was mine.). It helped the Eagles win last weekend! lol

It's not a party without dogs...no offense to cats.

Bunny Dogs*** were damn good if you ask me. I ran out of yellow mustard so no cool mustard squiggles. Sorry.

Hellman's Vegan Mayo (!?!) fo yo bowl (o yo dogs):

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it at Wegmans. Can't wait to try it. And a re-up on mustard.

You might be ready to graduate to an even bigger bowl now.

I've got recipes for the Bunny Dogs, the Not-Cho Cheese, and the LoveYoMomma Marinara. LMK which one you guys wanna see first. 

If you fill your bowl all the way up, what do you get? 

You guessed it: A SUPERBOWL.

GO EAGLES!!!

**Haul totally rhymes with bowl. Right?

***Bunny Dogs are cat-free. 

Testers: Spicy Korean BBQ Jackfruit and Pull Apart Buns!

Here are three more testers from Joni's new book, Vegan Fusion!  This is an amazing Pull Apart Bread filled with Spicy Korean BBQ Jackfruit. I made all three recipes (the BBQ sauce, the Jackfruit and the bread itself) yesterday!

BBQ Bun Pull Apart Bread from Vegan Fusion

This was made from three recipes...

The Spicy Korean BBQ Sauce:

Delish!

The BBQ Jackfruit Story:

This was my first time working with jackfruit, it is very hard right out of the can.

Here it is just starting to cook with the sauce, etc.

 I couldn't really begin to break it up until it had been cooking a good while, though I got some of the pieces apart a little using two forks at the beginning.  Next time I may chop up the jackfruit with a chef's knife before adding it to speed up cooking a bit (I was a little impatient last night, if I had more time I wouldn't have worried about it, it gets soft as it cooks).

After 45 minutes and a bit of effort (with two forks as well as cutting it up with my spatula--I wanted to make those buns!) to break apart the chunks of jackfruit, here is the finished Spicy Korean BBQ Jackfruit! It was delicious!

And, I needed a snack while I was making all this, so I put some of Joni's Sweet Chili Sauce on my tofu from the Asian Market (the homemade tofu, which is always amazing) and had it over some organic "marathon" bread from Wegmans.

A super tasty snack!! That gave me enough energy to finish the buns!

And here are pictures of the bun making and baking and eating:

 This dough is so smooth and silky, a joy to work with!

 Time to eat!
