Sorry I’ve been away, the Christmas season can be super busy.  I’ll be busy making stuff for the family Christmas Eve dinner so I won’t be on much, but look forward to some awesome stuff!

So last time I decided to make a different version of the vegan Mushroom Stroganoff  I made before, but this time use different pasta and adding some peas.  The peas were a success for sure, it helped cut the super rich flavor of the sauce and gave it some nice texture.  

The pasta was something I wanted to try that I found at Target.  Which is a surprise because target is terrible with Gluten Free stuff.  They just never have anything.  Their brand Archer Farms started carrying GF pasta, which you can’t find on their website.  We actually found it by accident trying to get away from the christmas crowds and went behind some aisles to find 3 of their GF Spaghetti with a bunch of candy.  Very random.

Went looking in their pasta section, couldn’t find anymore. There wasn’t even a sticker.  The 12 oz spaghetti was under $3, which is pretty nice for GF pasta.  It’s a corn and rice mixture.  I accidentally over cooked it a tad but it still held together well.  It had a great texture and the sauce stuck to the pasta.  

All in all it was a great find, which I’m not sure I’ll find again.  Anybody else have more luck finding this pasta?

This noodle stir-fry is a delicious short-order lunch, with a sweet and savory flavor profile and a little crunch! Serves 3.

Ingredients:

1 onion, coarsely sliced

1/2 apple, chopped

1/2 red pepper, diced

5-10 baby carrots, minced

1/4 cup sweet-and-sour sauce

1 stick celery, diced

2+1 tsp curry powder, divided

1/2 tsp salt

2 packages ramen noodles, broken into quarters

1 tbsp oil

Water

Directions:

Combine all vegetables 2 teaspoons of the curry powder in a bowl- mix. Pour in sweet-and-sour sauce- mix. Boil noodles in unseasoned water and drain. In a seperate bowl, mix salt and remaining teaspoon of curry powder with the noodles. Cover.

Heat oil in a saute pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, pour in the vegetable-sauce mixture and saute until the onions are translucent at the edges and lose their round shape. Decrease heat to low and pour in seasoned noodles (add a tablespoon of water if necessary). Mix in pan until thoroughly combined. Serve immediately.

This can be made vegan and gluten-free if you use rice noodles instead of ramen.

My friend Melissa, who regularly transports rescued shelter animals, was just called down the animal pound today to pick up a hen who was horribly debeaked as a chick. As with all hens in the egg industry, this hen had her beak painfully seared off with a hot blade at a young age. The hen is unable to eat or drink normally and was likely abandoned as a result.

However, Melissa has secured a sanctuary home for this little angel hen but she will require copious vet care before she can be allowed to live with fellow birds. Please consider making a small donation to help her!!

Please consider donating $5 or more to help this sweet and gentle hen get the vet care she needs to live out her life in peace and comfort: http://homelessanimalfriendfunds.chipin.com/debeaked-cacc-hens-medical-care
