Not "make shit cook.". The mea culpa meal: Winter Squash Lasagna with Kale, Sage, and Caramelized Onions. Posted by Maven at 7:58 PM. Oh hello, internets. Remember me? I'm the owner of this here blog, which languished all summer. I do have a reasonably good excuse for some of the absence: I got married 4 weeks ago, and while I was not CONSUMED by wedding planning, it most certainly did absorb some energy. Also, it was summer, and I was doing summery things, like not cooking. And then I remembered an amaz...

The Makeshift Cook: October 2008
http://makeshiftcook.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Not "make shit cook.". Posted by Maven at 1:09 PM. Recently, I have had my socks knocked off by humble, nearly unadulterated cauliflower- twice. The first time, I roasted it, which I'd never done before, and was rewarded with tender, delicious, caramelized vegetable goodness. The texture and flavor of this was incredible. Delicious, comforting, and super-duper easy. I realize dieters have known about pureed cauliflower forever. Don't let that scare you off. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Makeshift Cook: May 2009

Not "make shit cook.". Advanced Green Smoothie: Grapefruit, Spinach, Avocado. Posted by Maven at 2:55 PM. I am very inspired by accounts of foraging for food at Riana's. But so far haven't had many opportunities to get my forage on, apart from occasionally sampling whatever weeds I pull up out of the backyard. For a desk jockey like me, the kitchenette at work is the closest I really get to foraging- that's where all the leftovers from catered meetings end up. Blend and serve. Makes 2. Links to this post.

Not "make shit cook.". Hardcore breakfast: Crockpot Wheatberries with Coconut Milk and Mango. Posted by Maven at 1:12 PM. This is extremely easy and hearty as can be, but will give your jaw a workout. 1 cup wheatberries (I used hard winter wheatberries). 1/3 cup coconut milk. 1 cup frozen mango chunks. Put it all in the crockpot before bed and set to low. When you wake up, breakfast will be ready! You could also make this with fresh mango (add in the morning? Links to this post.

The Makeshift Cook: Note to self.

Not "make shit cook.". Posted by Maven at 2:25 PM. This unattractive, oddly satisfying snack you're eating- leftover pureed butternut squash mixed with Trader Joe's soy chorizo- would, with queso fresco, make a great dip for tortilla chips. Or skip the cheese- it would still be good. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. What the hell DOES a vegan eat, anyway? Cuca's Puerto Rican Kitchen.

The Makeshift Cook: Better the next day: Curried Chickpea Stew.
http://makeshiftcook.blogspot.com/2009/06/better-next-day-curried-chickpea-stew.html
Not "make shit cook.". Better the next day: Curried Chickpea Stew. Posted by Maven at 2:25 PM. Anyway, you might call this a "stewp," since it starts out like soup and ends up like stew the longer it sits and absorbs the liquid. It's definitely more delicious the next day. And it is easily veganized, and goes great with nooch. Olive oil for the pot. 1 medium onion, diced. 1 big carrot, diced. 1 celery stalk, diced. 3 fat cloves of garlic, minced. 1 fat inch of fresh ginger, peeled and minced. Note the sa...

Not "make shit cook.". Breaking the blog silence: Sundays in the kitchen. Posted by Maven at 4:18 PM. Hi internet. I disappeared under a pile of snow for awhile there, and now I am basically buried under my jobs. One of those jobs is in my field and fulfilling and wonderful, but it also necessitates that I live out of a suitcase Monday night through Thursday afternoon in a place with no kitchen. No recipes today, but I thought I'd at least let you know what I'm making:. I've been using this recipe as a s...

The Makeshift Cook: Roasted Green Tomato Curry with Chickpeas and Brown Rice.
http://makeshiftcook.blogspot.com/2009/11/roasted-green-tomato-curry-with.html
Not "make shit cook.". Roasted Green Tomato Curry with Chickpeas and Brown Rice. Posted by Maven at 9:41 PM. Anyway, grocery shopping. I'm just not on top of it yet and it seems like there aren't a lot of ingredients in the house, at first glance. But I had a batch of roasted and pureed green tomatoes in the freezer, and I started thinking they'd make an interesting base for chili, or stew, or something. What's that you say? You've never roasted green tomatoes? Oil for the pan. 1 onion, diced. Picture to...
