Super Natural Cooking: Five Delicious Ways to Incorporate Whole and Natural Foods into Your Cooking

Big Curry Noodle Pot : page 107

We love this recipe. I do agree that it needs some vegetables though. I usually add sauted mushrooms and bell pepper along with the tofu. Also good is roasted butternut squash. The broth is so delicious and fiery that I have drank it plain when I have a sore throat. It does depend on the type of red curry paste that you buy, some are hot and some kinda lackluster. I store the leftover paste in the freezer and it is ready to go for the next time.

The first time I made it with the tea, (I used orange spice black tea because it was in the cupboard) and it did add a floral note. But it didn't make or break the spring rolls for me. The dipping sauce was quite tasty though. What I really like about this recipe is the baking technique. I make them w/o the tea, or with my own vegetable mix in the oven while I stir fry on the stovetop. Everything is ready at the same time and no hot oil to deal with!

Dairyless Chocolate Mousse : page 178

Yum! Rich, decadent and vegan. I've never used the amaretto.

One of our favorite recipes. Can top with any sushi toppings that you like. We are partial to a california roll combo of tofu, diced cucumber, avocado, shredded carrot, and finely chopped pickled ginger, with a sprinkle of sesame seeds, toasted nori and the delicious citrus dressing. Yum!
