Impatient White Bean Burgers

White Bean Burgers 1 1/2 cups cooked white beans 1/2 cup walnuts 1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs * 1 tsp salt 1 tbsp oil 1 tbsp amino soy *The bread crumbs were left over seasoning from a chicken-flavored tofu crumb coating- smoked paprika, parsley, marjoram, onion, pepper, garlic. 1. All ingredients put in a food processor, in order, and combined on low. 2. Made 5 burgers, cooked in a pan with some oil.

Impatient Quick Breads (Banana Bread)

Basic Quick Bread 1 3/4 cup flour 1 cup sugar 1/4 tsp salt 1 tbsp baking powder 2 tsp lemon juice (or a vinegar) 1 cup diced zucchini 1 cup walnuts, broken Makes loaf, 6 large muffins, or 3 mini-loaves. Before baking my recent batch, I also dotted the top with walnut pieces. Bake at 375 (30 minutes for loaf, 20-25 minutes for muffins, 10-15 minutes for smaller muffins). Other than this, just been making more breaded, and fried tofu tacos, homemade baked beans; attempted chocolate earthquakes, but they were better with ice cream than alone. Making cinnamon rolls today but the dough is tough, so it may not work- sometimes if food isn't given enough undivided attention, it manages to tell you.

Impatiently Forgetting to Post (Pot Pie, Parm Cheez, and Salsa)

Image
The Pot Pie Make your favorite biscuit recipe, sautee some veggies, add some cooked beans, make a white sauce, place everyone in an oven-safe baking pan, place as many cut out biscuits as there are servings, on top. Bake how your biscuits want to be baked, something like 400F for 25 minutes. My cream sauce was made with oil, flour, seasoning, almond milk. Veggies were onions, peas and carrots, mushrooms, black beans, and tomato. Biscuits were flour, crisco, almond milk, vinegar, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, salt. The Vegan Parm-flavor Crumbles 90 grams salted cashew pieces (about 3 tbsp) 9 grams nutritional yeast (about 1 tbsp) Grind in coffee grinder. They amazingly taste like parm cheese, great in salads, on pasta, on bread sticks, pizza crust... ...adding this to an apple pie crumble top would be reminiscent of the cheddar slice on apple pie known in some areas. Salsa Whatever you have in the house you want to ma

Impatiently Pan Glop (Curry)

Image
Kind of a Curry , 3-4 servings Little oil in a pan, throw in 3 diced Roma tomatoes , a small diced cooked potato , and a zucchini cut in long strips. Let it sweat with some curry seasonings (cumin, turmeric, garlic, onion, pepper, salt, paprika, coriander), then if it gets dry add some water. Add about a 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice , and 1/2-1 cup of cooked lentils . This should all take about 20 minutes Let it all sit together, lid on, heat turned off another 20 minutes. If one appreciates sour cream, yogurt, or creme fresh, a dollop on top might be really good when serving this piping hot. ***As soon as I remember to pull pictures off phone, I will include whatever I can on the previous posts.

Impatient Dessert Mugs

Thought I may have posted a very long time ago on these but a search turned up a no. Mug Cake Base 1/4 cup flour 1/4 tsp baking powder 1/8 tsp baking soda 1/8 tsp salt 2 1/2 tbsp sugar 1 tbsp oil 1 tbsp "milk" *vanilla optional, squirt *if too dry, use more milk Microwave minute and twenty seconds to thirty seconds (1:20). Banana Bread : 1/2 tsp nutmeg 1/2 small banana or 1/4 large banana Carrot Cake : 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/3 cup minced, cooked carrots Chocolate : 2 tbsp cocoa I haven't tried the Peanut Butter yet, but it'll be 1 tbsp when I do. Dried and fresh fruit , also haven't bothered with, but 1 1/2-2 tbsp You may even consider adding pudding mixes for your flavor, about 3 tbsp , think Pistachio , or Butterscotch; and consider adding a tsp of candy chips, like mint chocolate, white chocolate, carob, peanut butter! Perhaps consider making savory mugs, also, exclude half the sugar, add cooked beans

Impatient for Winter! Food and Crafting Ideas I will work on this year)

Getting a tree this year, will have a party to decorate it. Food, drink, movies, games, snacks. So this year our local Luminaries event at the local state park will have hot cider and Mexican cookies, and they will be collecting toys for tots. So this is when I would hope to have company over because we can do stuff during the day, then pop over there, then head home-full and joy-filled. Luminaries Night December 9, 2017-Saturday 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM MST Things to make this year Tree decor House decor The Garden Advent Thing The Fall-Winter Food Fairy Bites-with blue and white sprinkles  and cut into balls or snowflakes! Hot Cocoa From the first book: Homemade Hot Cocoa 1 cup dried milk 1/4 cup cocoa 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup creamer 3 cups hot water Stir dry ingredients together well. Add to hot water. Makes about 4 servings. This can be used to make cold chocolate milk too, use 2 tablespoons of water to make syrup then blend in the rest of the water. Hum

Simple Impatience is Sometimes the Easiest (Pancakes)

The standard pancake/waffle mix of mine works fine, just exchanged the milk for almond juice, and deleted the eggs. I used to insist on nutmeg, allspice, or cinnamon, along with applesauce or bananas. No more, just too unreliable and usually gummy around guests. So for about 4-8 pancakes, depending on size, it is just 1 cup flour 1 tbsp baking powder 1-3 tbsp sugar 1/4-1/2 tsp salt 3/4 cup almond milk/juice I used to make these with whole wheat flour, also, still fluffy, just don't weight it down with oil, applesauce, or smashed banana- no need! Local store didn't have whole wheat, hopefully next week! Also ordered a 5 lb package of vegan "shwarma meat".  Had it on homemade naan this weekend, then put it on rice for spouse lunch, then added some to homemade goulash (tomato, carrot, onion, garlic, red bell pepper, salt, pepper, paprika, broth, fat elbow pasta. This stuff is fantastic, I can see it in cottage pie, pulled sandwiches, beef and broccoli... Sure
