The Pantry Pocket is a small blog inspired by myself and my friends' love for all kinds of food whether its vegetarian, vegan, snacks, desserts, or what have you. we post anything from food we come across, to the food we make or even just what we've heard about. hopefully we'll make a tradition out of featuring local restaurants we love on a regular basis. tell your friends, and enjoy! contributors: christina. chase. |
Chinese pizza! Why have I never tried to make this before? Ginger infused crust, garlic chili paste and sriracha base for the sauce and broccoli, green and red peppers and tofu soaked in homemade general tso’s sauce topped with roasted sesame seeds. (Taken with Instagram)
Sandwich time! Seasoned, fried tempeh, cayenne mayo, ranch, steamed carrots and portobello mushrooms, daiya cheddar, spinach and sriracha on whole wheat multi grain bread. (Taken with instagram)

vegan ramen!
you’ll need:
1 5 oz. package of curly soba
2 cups of broth (I used Better Than Bouillon’s No-Chicken broth)
Seasonings, to taste. (I used salt, pepper, thyme, red pepper flakes, and curry powder)
Dash of tamari
bring the broth to a boil, add the soba and seasonings. cook about 4 minutes until noodles are soft. enjoy!
“Roast beef” style seitan in brown gravy over spiced mashed potatoes and a fried salad with broccoli, onion, snow pea, toasted almonds, and bac’n bits.
Vegan fortune cookies dipped in a ginger glaze.
I love making Chinese food!
Vegan Asian feast from the Wild Cow and BE Hive. I could eat this every day.
boiled cabbage, potatoes, carrots, onions and cauliflower with tvp jambalya!
First meal at the new house! Veggie burgers topped with hummus and cayenne on toasted onion buns with a side of spiced sweet potato steak fries.
I tried pressing and “dry-frying” tofu for this stir fry dish because it apparently it’s supposed to taste restaurant quality. It was okay but not close to what I’ve gotten from other places. I may try and cut the slices thinner or press it longer.
I stopped by Heart and Soy in Louisville the other weekend and got some pad Thai and spring rolls. I think you can order just about anything on the menu to be vegan. Honestly, I was a little let down on the food because Thai Phooket in Nashville has spoiled me but they also sell an assortment of vegan baked goods. I got a large black forest cupcake and it was well worth the $4 I paid for it.
Breakfast cravings brought me to make this awesome meal. Pancakes with strawberry butter, tofu scramble with soysage and spiced hash browns.
