Hearts of Palm Crab Cakes

No, vegans are not crabby cakes, they are happy cakes! Happy that they can eat these delicious morsels!

Whether you are vegan or not, these will delight your palate and you won't miss those crab creatures one bit. The secret here is the Hearts of Palm. You can find Hearts of Palm at Trader Joe's, BJ's, Wegmans, Amazon... Hearts of Palm does not have a POW, hit you in the face flavor. But the texture is amazing. With all the seasonings that are in this 'crab' cake, it tastes like a crab cake.

Try hearts of palm in salads, I love to have it in the summer with fresh garden tomatoes and avocado.... divine!

VEGAN CRABBY CAKES

1- 7 ounce container Hearts of Palm

1/4 cup seaweed shreds (you can buy them like that or shred a sheet of nori yourself)

½ teaspoon salt, plus more as needed

½ cup panko crumbs
2 egg replacers equivalents (ie. 2 tablespoons ground flax seed meal and 4 tablespoons warm water, mixed before you add it to the main ingredients)

2 tablespoons Vegan mayo

2 teaspoons minced fresh parsley

2 teaspoons vegan Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon dijon mustard

1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

2 tablespoons your favorite frying oil

Cut up the hearts of palm into rings. Set aside. Mix all together, then the hearts of palm. Shape the crab cakes and let them sit for about fifteen minutes. This will give the panko time to absorb moisture and set it a bit. Fry in oil.

Mexican Style Tofu Scramble Bowl

A really easy bowl to make and super delicious! I really like the recipes I see out there for "bowls". It's kind of funny because this is what I have pretty much done on my plate for a long time now. I would stir it all together, much to my children's chagrin. Well, at least one of my children. She does not like things touching each other. She is not especially a fan of curries for example. Now, though, as she gets older, she is not quite so outraged about touching food. The bowl concept is a pretty sexy one, I think. So pretty, sitting there in the bowl. Fun to see all the components and then mixing the beauty together with the noodles or rice or whatever underneath. I think what makes a good bowl is the blend of something crunchy, something piquant or spicy, something salty and something creamy. Just lovely! Mexican Tofu Scramble Bowl makes 4 bowls 1 brick of tofu, pressed for 20 minutes, then crumbled 1 tablespoon taco seasonings 1/2 cup garlic sca

BBQ Carrot with Pineapple Salsa

I found this idea at the cafeteria of the place I use to work at. I thought it was pretty genius. No author to site, sorry to whoever you are. I did experience some things that didn’t work in that recipe and changed it up quite a bit and added a trick I use for vegetables that so, all in all we could safely call this my recipe. In the original recipe, it called for roasting carrots. I did that and really by the time they are tender, they are drying out from the roasting. They were cut in about 3/8ths slices. A good way to do it if you want to do it all in the oven is to cover the carrots for a little while and let the steam cook them without drying. Then about 10 or 15 minutes in remove the cover and let them roast the rest of the way. Matter of fact... I may make it today. All I need is the zucchini... BRB. BBQ Carrot with Pineapple Salsa 1 cup pineapple, diced fine 1/4 cup red onion, diced fine 1 Serrano pepper, chopped fine 1/4 cup chopped cilantro 1 clove garlic

Saying Goodbye To The Old And Saying Hello To The New

When my daughter was two or three I started Lori's Lipsmacking Goodness. I loved that blog. At that time I was a stay at home Mom and desperately in need of a creative outlet and something I could look at and feel a sense of accomplishment. So many years ago. I poured my heart into that blog. There were so many blogs that started at the same time as mine and seemed to sky rocket. My blog, just plugged along. Never reached 'rock star status'. Many times I was bummed by that because it is how I saw myself in the world of professionals after leaving my social work job to stay home with the kids. If my blog failed, it meant I wasn't any good. Boy, was I hard on myself. Many times I thought to leave blogdom, be done with it. But I kept going, thinking that some amazing success would happen with my blog. Something amazing would spring forth. Some company would sign me on as a recipe developer. Or my hits would go up and I would make money doing my blog. Or I
