andy and i went to braxton today, so i decided to make dinner and take down since it is mother's day tomorrow. i got up early and made a big pan of vegetarian stuffed shells- half cheese and half filled with textured vegetable protein. for the cheese filling i pureed 3 or 4 garlic cloves with some fat free cottage cheese, italian herbs, cracked black pepper, some egg beaters, red pepper flakes and fresh baby spinach that i julienned. the tvp shells had minced red and yellow bell pepper, more garlic and a little tomato sauce to help bind it all together. they were pretty good - i was able to find whole wheat shells from the bulk food store, so i was pleased about that.
i made sure to go back to the bulk food store today before we came home - made lots of great purchases - i was able to find toasted soy beans but i'm not sure that's the same thing as the soy nuts i've heard about. we decided to try taking max into the store with us, so i put him inside my purse (i have a big vera bradley tote). he fit inside very nicely but he was terrified! that lasted only a few seconds before andy took him outside to explore the parking lot.
well i'm off to bed - max and i are worn out!
