What with the holiday travel and cooking and a now 1 year old baby… who you callin’ lazy?
No one but the Vegan Month of food Mini MoFo challenge with this topic.
I’m thinking what do I do that could be construed as lazy?
Chocolate Goo comes to mind: when a sweet tooth hits, I grab nut butter, cocoa powder and liquid sweetness like brown rice syrup or agave mix it up in a bowl and dig in with a pretzel or cracker or even a spoon.
Or Freezer Cookie Dough, because I also tend to get distracted when making cookies in multiple batches. So, instead of forgetful burning, I make one batch then freeze the remaining dough in ziplock bags: flattened for eazy sliced bar cookies to satisfy my cookie cravings.
I’m also thinking about the baked goods I shop for when I don’t have time to make my own- ready made pie crusts always; puff pastry and polenta for easy appetizers; the cornmeal crust, Trader Joe’s tahini sauce and frozen mushrooms that work well when I run out of fresh veggies or Daya cheese for pizza.
Then there’s my friend, Alicia Casas who just started Jaguar Baker, I’m reserving a pie for the next party!
