Nutty Pantry Sandwich

Today has been a good food day, I’m not going to lie! It all started when I realized I didn’t have time to make lunch last night – uh, oh. We actually have a café at work, but the no-meat no-dairy selections are pretty thin. Surely, I can figure something out, I just went grocery shopping!

I started going through the pantry, pulling out ingredients that sounded good. The Wheat Germ & Cinnamon are something I had on a sandwich a while ago and it’s such a great nutty/spicy/sweet flavor, just what I needed!

This was a delicious surprise at lunch today – such a yummy, pull-things-out-of-the-pantry kind of meal! I’ll be making this one for lunch again…on purpose this time.

Dinner was at the request of Kirk – this was the Tofu Nuggets & Lulu’s Mac N Cheese from Peas and Thank You Cookbook, a new staple in the Blackmon House.

This week I used PepperJack Daiya Cheeze and added 2 fresh Jalapenos at the end – a nice spicy kick!

Dipping the Tofu Nuggets in BBQ Sauce was the perfect complement!
