pshaw_ravenI was going to make the blackberry tart last night, but neglected to chill the can of coconut cream. Actually, I'm not sure I needed to do that, but at absolute worst, I can still let the stand mixer beat the cream and eventually it'll warm up enough to lighten up. Now that I'm thinking about it, I wish I'd just bought a tub of So Delicious whipped coconut and saved myself the effort. But I'll put the tart together this morning and it will have enough time in the fridge to be set for this evening.
So far I've also made spicy peanut butter tempeh bowls with brown rice and a red cabbage-lime slaw, and will likely make some more sweet corn muffins. I also made a pan of protein bars.
I discovered a few days ago that broccoli leaves are not only edible, but pretty tasty and just as good for you as broccoli florets. And I don't mean the little leaves you often find on florets from the store, I mean the big leaves further down the stalk. They have a very mild broccoli flavor when raw, and when cooked have a slightly peppery taste, Considering how much broccoli I have growing at the moment, we'll have plenty of greens for a while. I have not tried them in a smoothie yet, but I imagine that as mild as they are, a handful of fresh berries will be enough to hide the taste.
Depending on how bored/stressed I get I may make a blackberry cake with a vegan cream "cheese" and lemon frosting. If I don't have enough blackberries left after today's recipe I will make up the difference with blueberries. I'll have plenty of Meyer lemon juice, because my tree has another couple of lemons on it, and it just bloomed, so hooray for everbearing trees?
