Mmm fall

In honor of fall, I made two new recipes! Both super easy to make.

Stuffed sweet dumpling squash

2 squash, cut in half carefully, spoon out the guts

- Place cut side down on non-stick foil on a baking sheet in the oven at 425 degrees for about 25 mins or until you can stick the outside with a fork and it goes in easily

1 bag of boil in bag brown rice (approx. 2 cups cooked)
1 - 2 c. morningstar farms "sausage" crumbles (depending on how meaty you want it)
1 large onion, diced
2-3 stalks celery, diced
1 medium sized apple, i used gala, diced
salt, pepper, sage

- Cook rice. In skillet, saute onion and celery with spices til onion is translucent. Add apple and sausage. Saute til sausage is thawed. Stir in your cooked rice. Stuff your cooked squash, place back in the oven for about 10 mins to get it slightly browned on top.



Hominy Griddle-cakes

1 can hominy
bisquik
vegan butter (earth balance, check the label, they aren't all vegan)

-Drain hominy, saving the liquid in a bowl for mixing later. Saute the hominy in a skillet with 1 Tbsp. vegan butter til lightly toasted. Mash it with your reserved liquid, there will still be lumps, it's ok. Stir in enough bisquik to make a thick batter. Cook like they are thick pancakes, you want them golden and crispy.
