week 4 recap
As I predicted, last week was a crazy, crazy week. As in very, very busy. But several great things happened:
- I was interviewed by @CindyKing and got to talk about CulturallyTeaching.
- We had an awesome turn out at our January SIETAR-NC event.
- Chapel Hill got 5+ inches of snow. It’s been a beautiful weekend.
And I did my week 4 thing: I cooked a new vegetarian meal.
Here’s what I made: baked tofu with mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy. I’ve never marinated and baked tofu before but it actually turned out well.
Next time I make it, though, I’ll broil it because even after 50 minutes at 375 the tofu looked as white and squishy as when it went into the oven. But after about 7-10 minutes under the broiler the tofu finally browned and the edges got crispy.
It was filling, satisfying, and will become one of my veggie comfort food meals.
