15 Sept 09: Pork, pork, pork

Kinda a repeat. Not bad. Poor Emily peeled a lot of garlic, though.

Pork Loin with Orange Juice and Garlic
(covered, as hot as the oven goes, for the whole shift. Surprisingly well cooked)

Seitan with Same
(didn't take as well to the treatment. Had to rescue by chopping and stir frying at 6:50. Yea awesome assistants doing all the clean-up and set-up while I salvaged this!)

Roasted Cauliflower Soup
Bland. We didn't have veggie broth, and I forgot the paprika.

Sauteed Cauliflower Greens
A triumph of non-wastefulness. Sasha honestly almost labeled these incorrectly as "chard" even though she'd had a hand in cooking them. Served with pine nuts; should have had raisins, but we were out.

Chickpeas Romesco from the mighty Veganomicon
Times Ten. All Sasha's doing. Perfect.

Spanish Rice from the mighty Veganomicon
3 qts long grain Brown Rice, 4.5 quarts water, onions, lots of garlic, a little turmeric

Spinach Salad with Garden Cucumbers, Craisins, Blue Cheese, and Pear Dressing
A perfect use for the overripe pears: six of them went in the food processor with some apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and a tiny bit of olive oil. You never would have guessed that they were probably a day short of inedibly rotten; this was actually my favorite part of the meal.

Millenium Cafe's Chocolate Almond Midnight
with all nuts swapped out for peanuts. And Strawberries instead of Raspberries. My second favorite thing.
