Where's the craft?

This site is called veg food and craft, but there is no craft on here.
I put all my projects on my ravelry page.
So if you want to see what you can do with non animal yarns have a look!

Meat's not green.

It is becoming more widely known that the farming of meat is not good for the environment. Here is a video from PETA explaining why. Pass it along!

Tofu Scramble

I had tried a recipe for this once before but it failed miserably, but after having the courage to try again, I hit the mark.

I have based mine on this recipe but I feel you can use any sauce you like. I have even done it with a little extra olive oil and lots of chives, salt and paper. Served on toast it makes a delicious and healthy breakfast or snack.

I added some olives, sundried tomatoes and capsicum during the second and third folds. The result is simply amazing. It may take a while to make, but that is mostly in the risings. But, as they say, all good things come to those who wait, and this is good.

I have been getting back into using TVP after a break and have found some great and very fast and delicious recipes in Dorothy R Bates cookbook "The TVP Cookbook" (published by The Book Publishing Company1991). I have only tried so far, the stroganoff and the Italian Meatballs, but both have been very simple and delicious. If you're new to using TVP, this is a very handy book.
