Baby Polenta Pizza's

Look yummy? Yeah, thats what I thought too. Mum got these 'egg rings' (I think that's what they are called) the other day and immediately I had this recipe idea. Unfortunately I got halfway through before I realised that I should have been writing the recipe out. So I'll tell ya what I did kinda but if you want the recipe proper, you'll have to wait until I make them again.

• I made a thick, savoury seasoned polenta mixture and spooned it into egg-rings to create the bases.
• I topped it with tomato paste.
• I sautéed onion, capsicum, eggplant and zucchini and put that on top.
• Then I put some grated tofu (optional)
• And soya cheese on the top. 
• Then I just grilled them until the cheese melted.

YUM YUM YUM!!!!

I shall be making these again!

Macaroni and "Cheese"

I don't know about you, but I'm kinda sick of Cashew "Cheese". I don't know why, maybe because it's never really blended smooth enough, maybe I've just had it too many times, or maybe it's because I don't like the flavour. Well, here is my new favourite! The title says that it's Macaroni "Cheese" but I'd say you can use it for anything! If you put it in the fridge, it will set - to an extent. The consistency goes something like jelly. Use it as a spread, as a white sauce, as topping, on macaroni, on veggies, anywhere!
Try it! I know you'll like it!

TIPS: This recipe is quite tangy so if you want a more subtle taste, you could use perhaps half of the lemon required in the recipe.
