Vegan Dad's Ultimate Vegan Hot Wingz

Today was a pretty tame day, silly cat kept me up all night jumping on the bed, so I just took it easy today.

Found a few more meat things in freezer (turkey sausage, turkey bacon, turkey burgers) so I made some fiber one pancakes to have with it. I missed my green monster =(

B- Fiber1 pancakes (3), icbinb (1), 1T Maple syrup (1), 2 Turkey sausages (2)
L- Turkey burger(3), 2 slices of Nature's own wheat bread (1), 1/2c Annie's mac n cheese(3), 1/2c corn (2)
s- 4 VD's ultimate vegan hot wingz (4)
D- Mexican pork chops with veggies (5), baked tato (3)

28/26

I made the hot wingz today because I hadn't added anything to the freezer in awhile. Convenience type foods that I can nuke and be done with aren't that important to me, but I do like them on occasion. I am a fan of the boca & morning star farms faux chikn patties, and am trying to find something I can make at home to take it's place. Yep, I find the price too high (side note- Boca's Bruschetta patties are to die for).

I have already made the chickpea cutlets from veganomicon, but pookie gave it low marks *said it was blah*. I think they have great potential, and may try them again in the next couple of weeks.

Today boo came home to vegan hot wingz, leftover mac n cheese, sesame sauteed kale. He first asked what's in it, lol. Guess he's just a little weary of my experimenting ;)
He ate one, said "Enh, I can eat it". Had some with the sides, commented, "You are feeding me like a child". Welp, I thought mac n cheese was a good fit, as they tasted sorta chicken nugget-y.
Either way, he said he could eat it every once in awhile, so that's boo's review.

I thought it had a nice enough texture, but would have liked it a bit more crunchy. I am freezing them and going to try baking it to reheat and see if that doesn't add some K-runch.
