Phenomenal French Toast
Everyone raved about this French toast at our recent Half
Moon Bay camping trip – hey, if we can make it at camp,
you too can make this at home!
2/3 cup low-fat nondairy milk
4 tsps whole wheat pastry flour
1 1/2 tsps Red Star Vegetarian Support Formula (T6635+) nutritional
yeast flakes
pinch of salt (optional)
4 slices whole grain bread or whole grain sourdough bread
Mix the first 4 ingredients in a small mixing bowl, using a
wire whisk to beat into a smooth, thin batter. Pour the batter
into a wide shallow bowl. Dip the bread slices, one at a time,
into the batter, making sure that both sides are well-saturated.
Mist a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray, or coat it
with a thin layer of canola oil. Place the skillet over medium-high
heat. When the skillet is hot, add the soaked bread slices in
a single layer. When the bottoms of the bread slices are well
browned, carefully turn each slice over using a metal spatula.
Cook the other sides until they are a deep golden brown
Macaroni and Cheeze
When Wendy asked for ‘favorites’ for the July VFP,
this recipe, from the classic Farm Vegetarian Cookbook, was one
of our top picks. It was one of Tammy’s ‘favorite’ recipes
to make when she first became vegan. And, funny enough,
Mary made the same exact recipe for the party, too!
Cook 3 ½ cups elbow macaroni
In a saucepan, melt ½ cup margarine over low heat. Beat
in ½ cup flour with a wire whisk and continue to beat
over a medium flame until the mixture (called a roux) is smooth
and bubbly. Whip in 3½ cups boiling water, 1½ tsp
salt; 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1½ tsp garlic powder, and a pinch
of turmeric, beating well to dissolve the roux.
The sauce should cook until it thickens and bubbles. Then whip
in ¼ cup oil and 1 cup nutritional yeast flakes.
Mix part of the sauce with the noodles and put in casserole
dish, and pour a generous amount of sauce on top. Sprinkle top
with paprika and bake for 15 minutes in a 350 degree preheated
oven. Put in broiler for a few minutes until cheeze sauce gets
stretchy and crisp.
