Coconut vanilla chia pudding

https://mywholefoodlife.com/2014/02/04/coconut-vanilla-chia-pudding/

So I made this. I'm gonna have to give it a B minus. It was still very soupy this morning, after spending the nite in the fridge, so I added some rolled oats. That made it okay but not great. Maybe I just don't like the consistency of soaked chia seeds. They somehow remind me of something that I didn't like. Could have been in a previous life.

The recipe calls for coconut butter. The only coconut butter that I knew of was this:


Unlike Tide pods, you should not put this coconut butter in your mouth.

Here's a recipe for coconut butter, but I will warn you that you will think that your food processor/blender motor is burning out - and it might. You have to blitz this stuff for a long time (like 10 minutes). https://www.stupideasypaleo.com/2013/11/17/coconut-butter-from-scratch/

If anyone knows what to do with coconut butter, other than make coconut vanilla chia pudding or rubbing it on your skin, please let me know!!!

Meat substitute?

On our last visit to the international market here, we got some King Oyster Mushrooms. When I looked them up, I read about them being a great meat substitute, so I immediately became interested, in spite of their appearance.  That is about 10 inches long. You slice it, marinate it (we used a mix of mirin and tamari), and cook it in a skillet, then serve it over rice, which now only comes in brown at our house. We also stir-fried some other veggies to go with it.  The result was not meat-like, although had the potential to be tasty. I think grilling might work better, but it's in the teens here, so I think that will need to wait another day or two.  I have also pulled the dehydrator back into regular use. Slices of mango sprinkled with chia do well. I also like Asian Pears. I do not like red beets, but made some beet chips for Vicki because I am a wonderful person who will gladly pass the beets off to someone else. Hold the humanitarian awards for someone else. Ha

Looks are deceiving

So dinner looked promising: It was not.  Abject failure. I withdraw my earlier comments about the Minimalist Baker. The "mozzarella" was something akin to Elmer's. We put so much Tiger Sauce on it our lips burned - but so we couldn't taste it that way. The remainder was disposed of appropriately. Nothing to add to this. Fail.
