Monday, August 13: Tonight Alex makes some delicious mushroom hoagies. Usually he makes mushroom tacos, but since we are out of tortillas, he turns the recipe into sandwiches.
First he chops a huge number of mushrooms into tiny pieces.
Mike grates some carrots. They put the grated carrots and mushrooms into a large saute pan and cook them up. Alex adds red pepper flakes, chili powder, garlic salt, oregano and some jarred pasta sauce.
After the concoction is steamy, we pile the mixture on a hoagie bun, along with fresh baby spinach, tomato slices, and Goddess dressing, for a delicious vegan sandwich.
Afterwards, the boys play some pool, and I begin to watch You’ve Got Mail, with Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks, until I get sleepy….
I’m not a huge mushroom fan, but I’d give this a go.
It’s sort of like a sloppy joe in taste, though not in texture! It was yummy! My boys are teaching me how to eat vegan, most of the time anyway!
How colourful you are in America, Cath! Love the red foliage (and adore mushrooms)
Thank you Jo! It’s so nice to be home, if only for a short time!! Thanks for coming by to visit me here! 🙂
That looks delicious! I think I’ll come to your house for dinner. 😀
Please do! We’d love to have you join!
Oh no, more food! Good looking, too! I find that chopping up is part of the fun! People around me don’t think so when I had the little screaming voices though, ha ha. Imagine the fun when I use the juicer, especially for carrot juice 😀
We have the blender going quite frequently in our house too! It makes our dog go crazy!! That amount of chopping takes a lot of patience, more than I have! 🙂
It does? If only the dog could chase its tail at that speed? Uh – or maybe not. They once said something about patience being a virtue? Not always sure where exactly that gets you?
Yes, patience is a virtue, just not one that I happen to have!! 🙂
He he welcome to the club 🙂
