Here are 4 things that kept us smiling on the way…. 1 Drive at night. We snacked on dried mangos. A fruit and nut mix, and peanut-butter pretzels. They ar...

Cajun Strawberry: Vegan Fried Eggplant
http://cajunstrawberry.blogspot.com/2014/03/vegan-fried-eggplant.html
Thursday, March 27, 2014. I love fried eggplant. It's hearty and meaty, and it makes one heck of a burger. But I don't like making it with eggs. This batter is light and crispy without that heavy, eggy, soggy texture. Eggplant is the meat-loving vegan's best friend. It happily takes the place of a variety of meats in many different dishes. To choose a ripe, not-over-ripe eggplant, look for a smooth, dark skin and firm, slightly spongy flesh. 1 large, ripe eggplant. Wash and slice eggplant. Set aside.

Cajun Strawberry: Sushi Fried Rice
http://cajunstrawberry.blogspot.com/2014/04/sushi-fried-rice.html
Friday, April 11, 2014. Our lunches are often thrown together from this and that, whatever I find in fridge and pantry. The results are often rather impressive. Today is one of those days. D brought home sushi a couple of days ago. I had leftover rice in the fridge. I tossed together the leftover dipping sauce and wasabi with a few pantry staples and -voila! Fried rice is one of my go-to recipes. It's much easier than you might think. The extra toppings turn a basic dish into something special. Today's T...

Cajun Strawberry: December 2013
http://cajunstrawberry.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 4, 2013. My mom used to make a version of these muffins. I LOVED the little bite of warm applesauce hiding in the center. I don't just limit myself to applesauce for these muffins. A spoonful of jam, preserves, pureed fruit, Nutella, or anything else you fancy turns a regular old muffin into something special. I used pear preserves in this batch, so I cranked up the spice to complement the fall flavor. 1 TBS flax meal. 1 1/2 cups flour (All Purpose or whole grain). 3 TSP baking powder.

Cajun Strawberry: May 2014
http://cajunstrawberry.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 9, 2014. As I've mentioned a few times recently, I am streamlining our homeschool, combining necessary tasks with the subjects we are studying The result of this is more free time, more room in our day to play and to add in extra lessons that we have not had much room for in the past. On of these new endeavors is Picture Study (or artist study later, but last month, just picture study). For this lesson, we read Kogi's Mysterious Journey.

Cajun Strawberry: June 2013
http://cajunstrawberry.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 24, 2013. I have found that my family will eat pretty much anything in mac and cheese form. This dish is vegan, egg-free, dairy-free, meat-free. No cheese or cheese-like product at all. I even slipped some greens in there and no one complained. The creamy sauce and mild flavor please everyone. Even my only-from-a-box husband. I'm calling that a success. 1 pound macaroni, cooked, drained, set aside. 1 cup butter or substitute. 4(ish) cups milk of your choice-I used almond. Hyperbole and a Half.
