Pinterest Meals, Day 1
Pinterest is my latest time suck. It makes Facebook look like nothing because you FEEL like you’re doing something when you’re on it. I’m SUPER crafty thanks to Pinterest, granted I haven’t attempted that many of the actual crafts (I did make Kennedy some matching Christmas pants and I have five days to get mine finished). I find awesome recipes, funnies and things that I want to do around my house.
So, this week while I was planning my meals I decided to make all of my meals from Pinterest recipes that I’ve pinned. For the uninitiated that’s when you find a recipe either from someone elses board or the web and you mark it and add it to your board. Most of mine are sweets because I enjoy baking, but I’ve added more dinner recipes.
Tonight I made Matthew’s Delicious Tofu, Roasted Green Beans, Roasted Cabbage and brown rice. They were all on my Recipes board.
I didn’t get pictures of anything (because I couldn’t find my camera). I’m excited to say they all turned out pretty good. I really liked the tofu. It called for a non-stick pan to sautee the tofu in, which I only have one of, and it’s tiny. So, it probably took me longer to do it because I kept having to move tofu in and out. I also pressed the water out of the tofu which I think gives it a firmer taste.
I recommend all of them. They were all easy and yummy. If you’re experimenting with tofu know that you can go ahead and buy diced tofu, which I like because I’m lazy. The green beans really need the parmesan on them, but if you don’t have fresh (I didn’t) the stuff out fo the can works just as good. The cabbage is super yummy when it’s roasted. I’ve been eating it for lunch for a week or so now. It’s just so easy. The cabbage gets really buttery and parts of it get crispy which I like.
I give tonights Pinterest meals an A.
