I mean, come on, he's a nuclear engineer!<br /><br />MS, it might make good meatloaf. A small loaf with other veggies in it maybe. I'm not a big fan of meatloaf so I don't foresee me experimenting with that one. I'll leave it to you.<br /><br />Anony, short of breaking into my house for more, yes, you had to stop once you snarfed them all down.<br /><br />Buzz, eggplant/onion/mushroom paste is one butt ugly food item. This is where we lose the Food Texture Issues folks. But it really is very tasty.<br /><br />Dani, as always, glad I could help.<br /><br />Syd, for you I suggest you call them faux oyster meatballs....if that helps.Big Shamuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15297361034783510191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930710315732568255.post-56919840196021252532011-04-14T15:49:23.165-05:002011-04-14T15:49:23.165-05:00Damn Dani!

I would try these, as long as they weren't called "vegetarian". As soon as something is labeled "vegetarian", I have a mental block and immediately hate it.Sydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06288677537002934173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930710315732568255.post-6116137160489774282011-04-14T13:16:06.154-05:002011-04-14T13:16:06.154-05:00Thank You!!

But if I do anything othere that grilling or breading and frying, it looks horrible (like the above picture). I might give the meatballs a try for a change of pace. <br /><br />Top Chef Masters had a meatball quickfire and I think one chef went with a vegetarian meatball. But they only had 20 minutes.Buzz Killhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01443964019621130222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3930710315732568255.post-72847446977559867332011-04-13T22:29:44.197-05:002011-04-13T22:29:44.197-05:00These are fabulous!!!

The current experiment was a combination of ramen noodles, dried mushrooms, fritos and some spices and, wait for it, tuna. Dear gawd!

Always an experiment - this time I used a slurry of rare onions and garlic and lets chopped dry mushrooms in with it (left over from The Engineer's latest camping experiment).<br />They turned out pretty well. No idea what the next experiment will go.the dogs' motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11512888563325865616noreply@blogger.com
