Day: 8

So I've become a little lax on my posts here--even though I'm still 100% following this elimination diet! Without people checking the site, I've lost my motivation to keep it up quite like I had it. The time involved documenting my journey was becoming too much--but, I want to keep a log with a few pictures and at least links to the recipes, because I've stumbled upon a few really good ones I'd love to repeat (and well, a few not so good). Forgive my back tracking! And I've also decided to pretty much just document the dinners. You all probably don't care about every single meal of the day! I may get to that point again, but for now I'll keep it simple. ;-)

Dinner: Vegan Singapore Noodles

I must not have made these correctly, because this was positively gross! The picture makes it look way better than it actually tasted. It was partially error on my part. I cooked the noodles too long and they were a soggy mess. I do think the recipe was way too strong though, I didn't love the intense combination of curry, garlic and soy together. I couldn't eat more than a handful of bites. 

On the up side, it was my first time baking with tofu, I did like how that turned out! The tofu tasted great! I loved the idea of first baking the tofu at a high temperature (to get rid of extra moisture) and crisp them up a bit. 

Bottom line, I would never make this recipe again. But--I'll keep the pointer on the tofu for future reference!
