The night I made the artichoke pie I also made a few other things. The artichoke pie just upstaged them. I thought I would share pics of them anyway in case anyone was interested. I had a tomato that had to be used before it went too mushy on me. It was actually perfect. I could have stopped there and just had the sliced tomato with oil and salt but I also had an English cucumber so I sliced that up and added it to my salad. It was a light accompaniment to the rest of my dinner.... the over fried tofu and the artichoke pie.
Last night I made the artichoke pie with asparagus, mushrooms and sweet onions instead of the artichokes and it was very good and very pretty but a bit soggy. I will post a pic of it later.
Since the main course was vegetarian I made a salad with mixed greens and thinly sliced and marinated beef in a light Cesar dressing with toasted almond slivers. That was as good as the pie!

The tomatoes and cucumbers look delish!!!
The tofu doesn't look too good, does it? It was also very bland. I love it in restaurants but I am not sure what to do with it at home!
I only like tofu at Chinese restaurants- spicy with black beans!
Oooh reading this made me hungry and i just had a good lunch! Go figure. I had some lentil-kale soup that Noah made with some salad of all organic stuff from our CSA share. mmmm good. I downloaded an artichoke pie recipe and can't wait to make it...and now to know i can use other veggies, yes! Tofu can be very tasty, one just needs the right recipe. I have a barbecue tofu recipe that everyone, even non-tofu eaters, like.
Someone must send muffin a good tofu recipe because I have the same problem! And I just love it...but only when I eat out because I can't make it right at home.
