So, slight change of plans for lunch. My friend from class was having car trouble and was stuck in Orlando and couldn’t make it :(. But once I start thinking about certain food and restaurants, I just have to have it—so I went by myself! They have wireless in the restaurant so I sat and got caught up on some emails while I ate. For lunch I decided on the same sandwich I had last time I went to the restaurant—Sabrina’s Favorite. Oh man, is it ever good! I always order the half portion and it is way more than enough. It’s raw onion bread filled with raw hummus, cashew cheeze, sprouts, romaine and avocado. I seriously crave this sandwich, its soo tasty. I also had a ginger green tea to sip on.
My mom surprised me by an early birthday present this afternoon—an Anthro gift card!!!!!!!! I bought a new outfit with it—jean capris and a cute green tank top. Pictures later 😉
It’s only 4:15 here but I’m already sipping on a homemade cosmo and watching horse stuff on tv. Should be a fun and interesting night with the fam! Time for Big Brown to run!!!
(Dexter rode alongside me in the car this morning. This will not happen again. He’s just a little too curious! He actually chewed right through the other carrying case I had for him though!!!)

June 7, 2008 at 9:52 pmI remember you saying something about freezing tofu. I have never actually done this, but I can’t always finish a package of tofu. I know this may sound silly, but how do I freeze tofu?

June 8, 2008 at 1:03 amThat’s a yummy looking sandwich! It’s a little out-of-the-way, but if you ever find yourself in Vancouver, there’s a DELISH vegetarian restaurant called Naam. It’s sooooo good- Whenever I visit, I go! They have these yummy avacado enchiladas- so fabulous!

June 8, 2008 at 2:12 amMmm oh my goodness I want that sandwich!!
And I second Janine’s question about freezing tofu. I think I remember about how to press it and freeze and all but if anyone can re-explain it for me I would be greatful 🙂

June 8, 2008 at 2:47 amOn freezing tofu:
its SO easy, girls!! All you need to do is right when you get home from the store, drain the tofu and line a plate with a couple paper towels. Put the tofu on the towels, top with a dishcloth and about five of your heaviest cookbooks. Let it sit for about 30-45 minutes. Then, slice into four equal pieces and freeze each piece individually in a little plastic baggie. Then, when you want a piece for dinner, all you have to do is pull the plastic baggie from the freezer and let it defrost in the fridge overnight. Presto!
Ashley,
Trying to think of how to explain this………its very creamy, sort of “zesty”, and really really good. it tastes very rich and with a complex flavor profile (not bland at all) and a little goes a long way. I would love to try to make my own but I don’t have a food processor :(. I want one SO bad!!!! I bet you could go on http://www.vegcooking.com and search for a recipe though because I think its pretty easy to make. I actually like it better than real cheese. Its very delicious. The onion bread is actually dehydrated onions (I think?) and I’m honestly not sure how they make bread out of it because it is 100% raw. Its very chewy and tastes sort of like a very flavorful and thick tortilla. I think thats the best way to describe it.
