As per "the plan" I set some veggie curry from the freezer. Now I know that potatoes will change texture etc in the freezer, and I don't go out of my way to put them in there. I saw someone else had it listed as part of their once a month cooking vegan plan, so I ninja'd it as a cheap vegan meal to get us started. That said, we both sat down to eat it and just couldn't. I usually joke that my pookie is like mikey who will eat anything, but this appears to be his culinary equal to kryptonite.Having abandoned the plan, he decided to just fend for himself, and chose triscuit thins and some colby jack cheese. I was a little discouraged about the meal, so I decided to stick to the vegan meal part of the plan. I grabbed a homemade sausage (turned out to be one of the eight andouille sausages that I had made & forgot to sort), 1/4c of the tofu sauce, 1c cooked whole wheat pasta, and 1c steamed normandy blend veggies. It was fantastic!
When I made the sausages I had a bit of a snafu, might as well share. It required a steamer. I have one but just the microwave tupperware one lol. I also have a metal strainer and a huge stock pot. I just assumed that I would be golden so set to making them. Turns out I should have made sure that the strainer would fit inside the pot all the way. While I still gave it a go (since the sausages were ready for steaming action!), it didn't quite turn out. The other two batches I put into a bag and refrigerated. The next day was our grocery day *thank heavens*, so I bought a steamer. So some of them are spongy and some are apparently delish!
B- Breakfast burrito (6), mango lightfull smoothie (1)
L- Andouille sausage (2), 1c steamed veggies (1), 1c ww pasta (3), tofu sauce (2)
s- LF popcorn (1.5)
D- leftover baked chicken drumstick (3), baked potato (2), salad with light dressing (1)
The tofu sauce link is to the original recipe. I however have changed it quite a bit so my (counts) will never be accurate when compared to the ingredients in that recipe.

This sounds like things I do, I will save things in the freezer and when it is time to eat it...we just stare at it....lol
Sorry about your sausages...That is discouraging. But your pasta dish sounded lovely! I was going to tell you on the last post that we love Aldi's organic soy milk, it is so good, by far much better than some name brands...Hope you have a lovely day!!
