Atomic Potatoes, Fiendishly Good Tofu

The Chef: Lyndsay

The Menu: Breaded tofu, cheesy mashed potatoes, and a big green salad filled our plates today. Ms. Lyndsay marinated her 'fu before bathing it in breading and frying it up, and she applied her patented chopping method to a nice, big head of romaine for the salad. The potatoes, as you can see, came out a very vibrant orange, but more on that later.

The Goods: Okay, it's later. So, as you may already know the VN crew attended the San Francisco Green Festival over the weekend. The Green Festivals are great opportunities for us to not only get the word out about VegNews, but also to get the scoop on new products, meet new people, and so forth. One of the new products we discovered was an instant mashed potato mix from Road's End Organics, flavored with their signature Chreese. The product is so new, in fact, that they weren't quite able to perfect the amount of orange, though we have it on good authority that once the insta-taters hit the shelves, the effect will be more mashed potato, less sweet potato.

Chreese Please!

The Chef: Jenny & Lisa

The Menu:
Road's End Organics Dairy Free Penne & Chreese cheddar style brown rice pasta piled next to a heap of garlic vinaigrette-tossed spinach and baby greens and some nutty green-wheat pilaf.

The Goods:
On a windy, busy day, nothing tastes better than a genuinely tasty and nutritious heat-and-serve lunch, especially when we know we can't work late. Tonight is Karen Dawn's official San Francisco book launch party for Thanking the Monkey, which will be held at SF's newest veg venue, The Usual Suspects. After a hectic party-planning week, we are looking forward to being guests, and we are happy to be supporting a fellow voice in the animal-advocacy community. Hope to see some of you there!
