Did you have a good day today? I did but I was extremely busy! It was not the kind of day where I could take Skylar and play on backyard swing sets since we were busy running errands, cooking, cleaning, and catching up on laundry. She’s my little helper.

From my earlier post today about my online order , it got me thinking that I need to get busy making some Nooch Recipes now that I have my stash replenished.

I need to make some more Spicy “Doritos” Cheezy Dip

Or maybe I should whip up another Cheezy Vegetable Bake

I have about 15 nooch recipes compiled, here

Since I eat so many salads and dressings really help make the salad and keep things interesting, I made a Creamy Honey Mustard Dressing.

I combined:

1 part Vegan Slaw Dressing (or just use Vegenasie or Mayo if you don’t want to make a batch of homemade vegan slaw dressing)

1 part mustard

1 part honey (I did a post here on Honey , i.e. Raw/Local honey, Vegans & Honey, etc.)

Stirred. And poured over my salad

Pair the Salad with Sweet & Sour Honey Lemon Tofu

And I also wanted to roast a sweet potato but couldn’t decide if I wanted sweet potato rounds, i.e. chips…

….Or

Sweet Potato Fries

From my last post on Online Ordering and Mini’s . It was fun to hear what you’ve ordered lately. And what mini foods, or things, you like. No one likes a mini bank account, though, right?

Questions:

  1. Do you like nooch (nutritional yeast) and if so, what’s your fave way to use it?

Yes, see my Nooch Recipes . I adore it!

It’s one of those foods I discovered through blogging a couple years ago and have no idea how I ever lived without it!

  1. Do you like mustard?

Oh yes! As you can see from my salad dressing concoction.

And I posted here how I was reunited with a long lost love after 10 years!

  1. Do you like sweet potatoes and if so, what’s your fave way to eat them?

I find that exactly how one prepares them has a huge impact on finished product, especially when roasting them…

how thick or thin you cut/slice the potatoes

shapes used, sticks/wedges/fries/rounds

covered/uncovered

to oil or not and whether you spray, coat, drizzle, toss in oil, etc.

flip or not

heat/temp

time

…All make SUCH a big difference in the finished product .

I need to make some cinnamon and sugar sweet potato chips, soon! I love eating sweet potatoes that way.

And then I could dip them into the salad dressing mixture I made. Sweet, savory, mustardy, all rolled into one.

How do you make your sweet potatoes?
