I spent half the day at the Mall of America trying to update my wardrobe. I stopped for lunch at Tiger Sushi and had the best seaweed salad ever!

Vegan MoFo: Day 18
I went out to eat at Amazing Thailand tonight after seeing it on another Minneapolis vegan’s blog. I especially appreciated the tip to ask for the vegan menu.
My main dish was a peanut curry that was fine, but nothing I’d order again. I still want to try the Tom Yum and Tom Ka soups and the crispy noodles though, so I’ll be back.
And the sticky rice dessert was AMAZING!
Vegan MoFo: Day 17
Some days you just don’t have a lot of time. For those days there are Amy’s frozen foods.
Vegan MoFo: Day 16
My favorite way to eat those big blocks of mochi isn’t the pan frying from The Kind Diet, but baking them and stuffing them with (vegan) cream cheese.
Vegan MoFo: Day 15
I miss my Austin co-op. The Minneapolis local one is good, but has significantly fewer vegan options. They do tend to have some nice vegan scones and muffins though. This one is pineapple coconut along with some chai tea.
Vegan MoFo: Day 14
Choconanas!
I think I may have actually had an effect on my local co-op’s purchases. I buy about 3-4 boxes of the dark chocolate ones every time I go (maybe every 3-4 weeks). They used to have both milk chocolate and dark chocolate, but the last few times I went they’ve only had dark chocolate ones, and plenty of them.
Vegan MoFo: Day 12
Vegan orange chicken by Vegetarian Plus
I’ve had this and their black pepper steak. I liked them both pretty good. Neither will be a regular purchase since they’re not amazing and Rick doesn’t really like them, but they’re nice to have around for when I don’t feel like cooking.
Vegan MoFo: Day 11
Candied Lime Sweet Potatoes from Vegan Yum Yum.
This recipe did not work out for me. The sweet potatoes didn’t really get candied and I didn’t notice any of the flavors that much, so I wound up with some basic plain tasting sweet potatoes which were fine I guess, but nothing to bother making again. Maybe my slices were thinner or my potatoes were bigger so I should have doubled the sauce? (or tripled, or quadrupled…)
