Supper/Dinner Time! What's on the menu ?

I've been craving pasta for a while. I'm making some tomato sauce from scratch today. It will be really simple, but really delicious. The tomatoes reduce in a little olive oil and minced garlic until the desired consistency.

I really should make some homemade pasta, but I'm not going to. However, I should be able to find some fresh 'vegan friendly' pasta at my neighborhood grocery. If not, dry pasta it is, which is still fine with me.

I now use the Follow Your Heart Parmesan, but I used to love real fresh grated Parmesan Reggiano on my pasta. I've learned to live without cheese. I think it was the hardest thing for me to give up as a vegan though. I have vegetarian friends that want no part of being vegan for that very reason. It is true though, vegan cheezes do have a ways to go yet. Nonetheless, I've tasted some pretty good ones. They work for me.

I was craving pasta too and I bought some fusilli yesterday. I am just going to use a jarred sauce as I have an arabiata one I bought. I am going to add olives, broccoli and vegan cheese. I'm not sure if I can wait until dinner so I might make it for lunch instead.
 
late brunch so last night was silken tofu onion soup dip (w/garlic pwd & dry chives too) / hummus with hot sauce / breadsticks and plain rippled potato chips for dipping and jalapeno stuffed green olives on the side - dark chocolate for dessert

Nut roast, roasted potatoes, agave parsnips and carrots, broccoli & peas in cheese sauce and gravy.
I'll be right over! ;)

I had a Beyond burger (no bun) with the last of the corn on the cob and some spinach sautéed in garlic and a little olive oil. Trail mix for dessert. I might have some fruit later, unless I end up making apple crisp. :grinning:
