Hit me with your best shot


















Last night I tried Lachesis' Alfredo Stroganoff and it was gooooo-oood!

Alfredo

1/2 C Earth Balance, softened
2 C unsweetened soymilk (I used powdered that we keep around for baking/cooking)
1 pkg extra firm silken tofu
2 T white cooking wine (I used red 'cause that's how I roll, no, that's what I had)
2 T onion powder
1 T garlic powder
2 t salt (cut this down to 1 next time)
1 t pepper (cut this down to 1/2 t next time)
pinch of nutmeg
2 T cornstarch

Blend except cornstarch. Mix cornstarch with approx 1/4 C water. Heat sauce on stove. Add cornstarch mixture and bring heat up, stirring constantly until thick and just starting to bubble.

Serve over pasta.

This made a TON, like 3 1/2 C at 3 points per 1/4 C. It is rich.
I think I'll use the rest as a sauce in a casserole.

Every morning I see this guy on my coffee (yes, I drink instant).
Doesn't he look smug?
Or is he grimacing, because he knows he'll never get $15 mil like this guy...

Tried a new stitch for my short row scarf, hated it, back to my beloved garter.
