Meal Ideas: Vegan Fajita Quesadilla

 

I love quesadilla. Not only does it taste like heaven, it got me through my poor busy college years. I probably have made about a hundred of quesadillas in my life, and it was time to make another hundred or more in vegan style.

First, grill your veggies (I used red and yellow bell peppers and onions) in a pan with olive oil until they're soft. Set them aside in a bowl. Add some vegan cheese (I used Daiya chedder cheese) to your bowl of hot veggies and mix well. 

Place your veggies/cheese mixture in a tortilla and fold them in half. Place the tortilla on a pan and grill until your cheese is melted well. 

To upgrade your quesadilla, top it off with some avocado, sauce of your choice (my sauce is a mixture of veganaise, sriracha and ketchup), and cilantro. 

Now you have a beautiful quesadilla that you can bring to parties and impress your non-vegan friends! Or if you're like me, you can just eat the whole thing by yourself.

Enjoy!

Meal Ideas: Baked Vegan Sriracha Cauliflower Wings

Superbowl is not complete without a set of "wings"!! That's why for this superbowl season, I decided to use cauliflower to make some spicy hot "wings" to go with some football! 

First things first, you make the batter. I used about 1 cup of flour and 1 cup of water along with paprika, garlic salt, and pepper. But this is completely up to you; you can adjust the flour to water ratio to get the thickness you want. Just a tip is, the thicker they are, more batter will stick to cauliflower. Also, feel free to use different types of flour to suit your taste. 

Nicely coated. Wouldn't you say? Then they went into the 400F oven for about 20 minutes.

When they're done, the next step is to toss them into some kind of hot sauce to go with. I didn't have any Buffalo sauce at home. So being an Asian that I am, I used a 1:1 mixture of sriracha and coconut oil. Coconut oil taste tend to be strong, so you can use other types of oil if you don't like that.

 Toss toss toss! And back in the oven they go for additional 8-10 minutes until they're nice and crispy. That's it! Serve with some celery sticks and vegan ranch, and they're good to go!

 Be careful! They're hot!
