Chili Daiya Rigatoni
Brussel’s Chipotle Bean Burger
Happy Saturday night!
Utilizing store bought Chipotle (frozen) ‘burger’ patties, an enhancement to their subtle Chipotle flavoring took place.
A seasoning mixture was produced. Chipotle Powder, Sea Salt, Pepper, (Good) Sugar, Garlic Powder and Paprika were thrown into this old tin-like shaker as happy as could be:)
Shaved Brussel’s Sprouts were prepared to be roasted as well as pan-fried. The pan-fried method required a bit more oil, but it was worth it. Olive oils, Brussel’s Sprouts, Onion and the created spice were sautéed amazingly.
The ALDI Chipotle ‘burger’ patties were ‘grilled’, topped with the Brussel’s savory sauté solution before being smothered with DAIYA and another sprinkle of the SPICE.
Served with delicious Potatoes, no condiments were required in my sandwich. The enhanced Chipotle//rooty Sprouts flavor simply imploded the entire sandwich. Stay safe and don’t forget to moisturize the mind with a God Beer, responsibly.

LBⓋ 29 Bruncho Taco
Low Budget Ⓥeganism is self-explained once typed out.
The key to LBⓋ is simplicity. All you need is Good Beer, Good Tunes and Good Positivity. The texture was great:)
- Tortillas [(Flour (20] @ $2.19 = $0.11 per serving
- Peanut Butter (11) @ $3.79 = $0.35 per serving
- Celery (2) @ $0.88 = $0.44 per serving
Squeezable Peanut Butter helps this simple idea more taco-ish. $0.90 per serving!

Taco Pizza Salad
Life isn’t what it once was, but for hopefully all of us, still thriving through this global pandemic.
(Vegetarian) Refried Beans were warmed with Veggie Broth, Crumbles, Pepper, Garlic Powder and Paprika.
Small Pizza Crusts were then topped with the Bean Sauce, Jalapeño and Daiya:)
A Taco Salad Shell was warmed and stuffed with a mixture of Arugula, Spinach, Iceberg Lettuce and Corn.
To further Tacofy (?) this Salad…. Avocado, Tomato, Onion and Olives were added.
The Pizza was the angel to the christmas tree…..
STAY SAFE. MASK UP.

Happy November!
The world, at least mine, is still a mess, but let’s make some comfort food and calm our nerves with a quality drink.
Evolution is such a beautiful thing. As humans, we are evolution. And as long as we’re on a planet, it will never end.
My drinking habit has evolved to still include great beverages, but allowing my “man-boobs” & “beer-gut” to dissipate. For the last six months, I’ve been enjoying sugarless//maltless hard seltzer’s between beers. Instead of drinking four craft brews in one night, I might have a hard seltzer or two and a beer.
Try it. Who wants to be overweight anymore. Just something that works for me.
In water, Carrots and Potatoes were boiled with Sea Salt, Pepper & Garlic Powder. Wild Rice was cooked separately and drained. Jasmine Rice was added to the Potatoes and Carrots and cooked appropriately.
Once the Rice has been cooked, Corn, Black & Red Kidney Beans, Celery and Onion were added and stirred in with the Wild Rice (previously cooked).
The taste and smell of this dish was amazing, but the texture achievement (after all of the ballots were counted:) stole the show.
Daiya Waffle Tortillas were made in a waffle maker:):):):)

Shepherd’s Ⓥice
A Ⓥegan play on Shepherd’s Pi was created with many flavors and textures coming together very nicely.
The Ⓥice was a mixture of Jasmine & Wild Rice, Ⓥ Broth, Garlic, Carrots, Lemon Juice, Basil & Parsley, Sea Salt/Pepper/Chipotle Powder/Lemon Pepper, Capers, Earth Balance, White Wine, Corn & Peas and Meatless Crumbles.
The Mashed Potatoes were prepared simply combining Ⓥ Broth, simple Seasonings, Parsley, Paprika, Instant Mashed Potatoes and Corn Meal.
Ⓥice on bottom and Potatoes on top were panned and baked. I tried them upside down and right side up. Both were delicious!

Ⓥizza Burger
Marinara was heated with Ⓥegan Crumbles and simmered. A Beyond Burger patty was tossed into a hot pan. After a few minutes, the patty was flipped once and doused with the Meatless Sauce.
And then topped with Daiya and Spinach. A toothpick was utilized to keep the slippery Daiya in place. Covered and infused:)
The Bun was lathered with Earth Balance ‘butter’ and panfried before spreading Meatless Sauce on the fried Bun. Combining with texture and exploding with flavor, this sandwich was quick, easy and fun.
I have survived my second desert summer and the hottest Phoenix summer ever recorded.

Chipotle Tempeh & Grilled Daiya Taco
Happy September and Taco Tuesday.
Easy. Earth Balance lathered bread was filled with Vegenaise and Daiya and grilled on both sides. I’ve found the best way to melt Daiya is to cover.
Chipotle Tempeh guidelines are in the link above, Zelda. (Nintendo joke (I quit playing video games like 20 years ago, almost;))
Lettuce, Onion, Tomato and Olives complimented the dice Grilled Daiya Sandwich and Chipotle Tempeh to celebrate a Vegan Taco Tuesday.

Chipotle Tempeh Elotes Taco
A chipotle marinade was whipped up by combining; Vegenaise, Ketchup, Chipotle Powder, Onion, Sea Salt//Pepper, Garlic Powder, Paprika, (good) Sugar, White Wine Vinegar and CILANTRO.
The Tempeh was marinated for a day. The Chipotle Tempeh Was roasted twice and cut in between.
ELOTES was extremely close to this past post.
Daiya, Radish and CILANTRO was utilized to garnish these amazingly delicious Taco Shells.

LBⓋ 28 – Tom Ⓥurger
From the Sonoran Desert, I am rain dancing (pacing back and forth in the A/C w/ 114 degrees outside) for the clouds/moisture/rain to flow from the Northeast.
Time will tell. During all of this dancing, an easy Low Budget Vegan sandwich was put together.
Tomato Bun (8) @ $0.88 = $0.11 per serving
Mustard (99) @ $1.78 = $0.02 per serving
Vegenaise (32) @ $4.49 = $0.14 per serving
Organic Tomato (3) @ $1.34 = $0.45 per serving
Daiya (11) @ $4.79 = $ 0.44 per serving
Organic Spinach (8) @ 2.99 = $0.37 per serving
This sandwich includes a little more effort than a fast food joint and a little more expensive then their probably drive thru menu, but Who wants to kill themselves with fast food, anyways…. $1.53 per sandwich and maybe 15 minutes when melting the Daiya.
CHEERS.
