Valentine's Day Murder!

It killed my blender! On Valentine's Day! This smoythie hath no heart!

Pineapple Raspberry Smoythie

1/2 cup fresh pineapple

1/2 cup soy yogurt

1 cup soy milk

1/2 frozen banana

1 cup frozen raspberries

Blend without killing your blender. Sweeten as desired.

Reading week...or cooking week?

And... it's February break. Was planning on going to Cuba, but instead am remaining in Edmonton so that I can get some assignments and reading done. Oh joy.

Always one to find that silver lining (and here, it was especially hard, giving up sun, fun, friends and hot cabana boys for books) I decided that this will be a "cooking week" as well as a reading week. the semester gets insane from here on in (read: I become a sad little library troll/hermit). But with help from "freezie" (that is what I've named my deep freezer, no, I'm not joking) I will be able to stay fed and healthy in an affordable way. Yay!

At least I get to use this new soup mix I found on sale... :P

Vegan Pizza!

I was really wanting some pizza....so.....

I got some spelt pizza crusts at Planet Organic ($12.99 for 4 12' crusts, not a bad deal), pizza sauce, some "Vegan Rella" (this melts the best out of the other options, I think) some veg pepperoni and then I threw on some mushroom slices and some kalmata olives that were hanging around my fridge...

Then I baked it at 350 F for 20 minutes.

You can get creative with this, really, you can put on whatever you prefer... but all together, this was much cheaper than ordering...
