Green Girl Catering

I'm starting up a vegetarian and vegan catering company, pretty crazy. I've really been thinking about it for a while now and then i started thinking that I could probably actually do it. So I started thinking of a name and making a website. I really like Green Girl Catering and a friend is coming up with logo ideas. I'd say thinking of how I want a website to look has been the hardest part so far. I haven't really had the time to spend on it though because of work. I'm hoping when I choose and name and logo for sure it will come together. We will see.

Here's a recipe for peanut butter cookies:

1 1/2 cups flour
1 tbsp margarine1 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup oil
3/4 cups sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
3 tbsp water 


Mix all ingredients in a bowl, roll the dough into 2-inch balls, place on an ungreased cookie sheet, and bake at 400°F for 10 to 12 minutes.

Vegan Stuffed Mushrooms

Last night I decided to try making stuffed mushrooms, they turned out o-m-g good. Mushrooms are one of my favorite foods, I could probably eat them with anything and when you combine that with garlic and bread crumbs what can go wrong? 

1 pkg large mushrooms
1 onion
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp bread crumbs
1/2 tbsp nutritional yeast
1/2 tbsp crushed garlic
parsley
oregano
salt
pepper
vegan parmesan

Cut out the stems from the mushrooms and chop them up, chop up as much onion as you have stems and saute in a pan with 2 tbsp olive oil. Add garlic and seasonings and continue cooking for about 3-4 minutes. Add bread crumbs, yeast and cheese and stir, if mixture is dry add 1 tbsp of olive and spoon into mushroom caps.
Cook mushrooms in oven at 375 for 15-20 minutes!

Mac and Cheeze

Mac and cheese is basically the best food on the planet so I had to try and make a rockin mac and cheeze dish! I used whole wheat shells for the pasta to make it slightly healthier but you can use any kind.


1 box pasta
1½ cup nutritional yeast
1 cup veggie oil
1 cup water
¼ cup soy sauce
1½ cup milk
½ tbsp salt
1 tbsp paprika
¼ block of tofu (firm)
bit of mustard

Preheat oven to 350℉. Cook pasta, drain, dry. 
Combine all other ingredients in blender and blend until creamy. 
Add pasta and sauce to pan and cook for 15 - 20 minutes.
