Eggs Benedict

i really love eggs benedict. what is not to love? english muffins - love. soft poached egg - love. hollandaise sauce - love love. the ham, not love. there's a possibility that someday i will start eating meat again but i will never. eat. ham. ever. that dark wrap around the outside, what is that? i will never know. there was still bacon leftover from the quiche side the other night, so ryan was happy to take care of that.

i know i could have been a lot better of a vegetarian here. like made these with spinach or some other vegetables. but the thing is that i wasn't planning on making this for dinner. but when 5:30 rolled around ryan was really hungry and i didn't feel like spending an hour in the kitchen or staring down a recipe all evening. so i think this was perfect for what we needed tonight.

and poaching an egg really is not that hard. just make sure to put vinegar in the water.

Baked Tofu

for dinner ryan had baked tofu, marinated in soy vay sauce, over basmati rice, with steamed carrots. i've never made tofu this way, and it was actually pretty great. i wouldn't recommend this for a first time tofu dish. it's easy, but nothing is disguising the tofu, so hopefully you like tofu. that's it. easy.
