Another tester recipe with chicken-style seitan, for a sandwich spread or eating with a spoon.  I’m not even tasting cooked food anymore, so will have to check back to see how well it’s loved!  :)

Urban’s Back! Fat Free Papaya Salad

urban-vegans-fat-free-payaya-salad

Admittedly, I’m mad about most fresh foods, but this salad just hits the spot and is perfect – better than any papaya salad I’ve had in a restaurant!  I’m really excited and would like to thank Urban Vegan for creating this.  I’m going to make it more often; this was the first time I had worked with green papaya.

Shown here with radish (including a heart one I made for my boyfriend but figured I’d eat it myself :) ), snap peas, carrots, tangerine, lime, Thai basil, purple kale, and cilantro, along with the ingredients for the salad.

Urban Vegan Tester – Nicoise Salad

(Modifications made to be raw)

It’s not unusual for me to eat a whole salad spinner bowl full of salad, and I didn’t stop with this one, either.  I love the combination of ingredients for this salad and also the dressing!

Urban Vegan Tester – Spicy Udon Noodles

It’s the first food blog picture taken at Lando’s house!  With his black plates.  :)   This definitely smelled good and I was able to snatch up some whole-wheat Udon.  I think Lando will like it and it was very easy to make.  :)

Urban Vegan’s Creamy Avocado Dressing

Before I knew it, I ate a whole avocado in one sitting like it was nothing!  But it was easy with this dressing, the raw nori, sprouts, carrots, and kale.  I sealed the handrolls shut with lime juice. 

I’ll have you know I took about 35 photographs and felt none did the concoction justice, but you CAN see how creamy and smooth the dressing is, at least.  It does have one non-raw ingredient.  100% rawness aside, it was definitely worth it and I enjoyed this snack.

Urban Vegan’s Raw Slaw

I’m not a huge fan of cabbage, but I will be eating this raw slaw!

Urban Vegan’s Jicama Salad

I can’t decide whether to eat this for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, but I might decide on all three!  It’s very unique and tasty.  Lots of texture, too.

I tested the recipe for the dressing from www.urbanvegan.blogspot.com.  It’s delicious and very healthy.  I served it with spinach and arugula.
