weekend recap: muffins and dinners

I made Tropical Lemon Coconut Muffins!
example
I was a little wary of using pureed avocado in a muffin batter, but they turned out wonderfully! Coconutty, lemony, moist, rich, and filling, without a trace of avocado flavor. What a way to get in those healthy mono fats!

Dinner Friday night:
example
Yes . . . curried tofu from VCON . . . again . . . it's that good! Garlicky kale, mushrooms, and couscous on the side.

Dinner Saturday night:
example
Spelt topped with freshly grated parmesan, with tempeh, eggplant, red pepper, onion, and zucchini, soaked in the Mediterranean Marinade from a recent issue of Vegetarian Times. This dinner was definitely a home run -- everything was so flavorful and delicious! A variation on this dinner may be making a repeat while camping next weekend . . . !

Dinner Sunday night:
example
Tacos! It's hard to tell what's in there, but I promise those homemade tortillas are filled with homemade refried black beans, cilantro-lime rice, sliced avocado, queso blanco, salsa, and mixed baby greens.

Busy week ahead, even though it's only a four-day work week. We're going camping next weekend, and there's lots to get ready! Expect food pics and scenery pics upon our return!
