Sunday

This weekend my parents and co. went on a couples’ trip to the mountains. SN: I can’t wait to get a real boo just to go on these trips that my family raves about.  This prompted me to play babysitter/homemaker, successfully making two new recipes. The first was granola. On my lifelong journey of becoming vegan, I figured granola was a good starting point. I found this recipe on good ole Pinterest, but made it my own based on the ingredients I had at home.

The recipe was simple: mix all wet and dry ingredients separately; then combine it all in one bowl and spread on a cookie sheet.

                                                 

Bake for 45 minutes and then let it cool. The results: crunchy, savory greatness. This barely lasted the week!!

Then, for dinner, I made seafood enchiladas. My mom made them a few weeks back and…well, don’t they say the best form of flattery is imitation?

I made my own variation of sofrito and added alfredo sauce, shrimp and crab.            

Now. At this point, the pot looked so good, I was tempted to stop cooking right then. We could’ve skipped the extra 30 or so more minutes it would’ve taken to finish the meal and just ate straight out of the pot. But alas, the chef in me wouldn’t let that be, so I trudged on. The hardest part was assembling them because the temptation was strong. We even went Live to document the process.

In the end, we barely let it cool before devouring it. The only change I would make is substituting the tortillas for lasagna noodles. Anyway, it was the bomb.com.

I may be onto something with this cooking thing..
