Emergency Ingredient Substitutions for Baking. Sweet Potato and Black Bean Burritos. After the brunchtime porkapalooza we experienced on Sunday, you’d think a weeklong moratorium on meat wouldn’t be unwelcome.
Halfway through this delightful, nutrient-packed burrito, we both agreed a little pulled pork would be exquisite, tucked cozily between sweet potatoes and savory black beans. Not that I mind rocking a vegetarian burrito for dinner, on occasion. It is so reminiscent to me of being a starving student in Allston, Mass in 1998, when I lived in an apartment full of crazy, smart, strange girls and boys. There was a lot of electronic music, a lot of art on the walls, a lot of pretentious dialogue, and very little money. You don’t have to be a vegetarian, a communist, or a Wiccan to enjoy these sweet burritos. Sweet Potato and Black Bean BurritosMakes 3 Ingredients: For the burrito: For the roasted vegetable salsa: Method: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Cauliflower Crust Pizza & Stick a Fork in It. I came across this cauliflower crust pizza on Pinterest, and was instantly intrigued.
A low-carb pizza? Sign me up! I was skeptical, of course, but curious enough to try it and see how it tasted. I was pleasantly surprised by the results. Now obviously, it is not quite the same as a traditional piece of pizza with soft, chewy crust, but it’s a great substitute when you’re watching your carb intake. My husband isn’t a huge fan of cauliflower, so I planned on making the pizza before he got home from work. So the general conclusion…Healthy, tasty and husband-approved? Cauliflower Crust PizzaYields: 1 serving* Ingredients: 1 cup cooked, riced cauliflower 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese* 1 egg, beaten 1 tsp dried oregano 1/2 tsp crushed garlic 1/2 tsp garlic salt Olive oil (optional) Pizza sauce Mozzarella cheese, shredded Other additional toppings of your choice *Many people have commented and said that the amount of cheese can be reduced by half, and still taste just as good!
Source: Eat. Avocado Fries. I have a particularly tragic memory of looking at rental houses with my friend when he first moved to LA and finding one that actually had an avocado tree in the backyard.
I mean, a tree that was taller than the house and was heavy with ripe avocados This memory is tragic because my friend didn’t rent the house. If he had, I would have had a never ending supply to feed my avocado addiction.BTW – what are avocados, a vegetable? Some weird fruit?

Baked Tofu Recipe with Soy and Sesame. This Easy Baked Tofu with Sesame and Soy Sauce is delicious and also makes great leftovers!
I had such good success when I tried a recipe for stir-fried tofu, I vowed I would cook it again soon, so this is my second tofu adventure. The recipe is adapted from a basic recipe for baking tofu in Mark Bittman's How to Cook Everything Vegetarian, and once again I was thrilled with how this turned out. If you're a tofu novice (like me!) This has to be the easiest possible way to cook it, and with only three main ingredients, this is definitely an Easy South Beach Recipe, headed for the section in the recipe archives where I file recipes with five ingredients or less. Baked tofu will keep in the fridge for several days, and it's a great addition to salads, stir-fries, or sauteed vegetables.
Start with a package of extra firm tofu, cut it in half crosswise to make two tofu "steaks" and blot dry with paper towels on both sides. I baked the tofu in my toaster oven to keep the house cool.
