Another one of those times when I had to get my DIL to bring me some silken tofu (not something I usually stock in my kitchen), & since the recipe was quickly & easily completed, that was no problem! We really enjoyed the combo of veggies here! Will be keeping this recipe around! [Tagged, made & reviewed as a recipenap in the Vegetarian/Vegan Recipe Swap 16]

I live in Knoxville, TN with DH, my beautiful son, and the most spoiled cat on the planet! I grew up in Cincinnati and landed in TN by way of Bloomington, IN and Santa Fe, NM. Needless to say, it's been a long, strange trip!!
To explain the name: I was veg for 11 years, vegan for 1. In the last year or so I started eating poultry and fish again, but my brother-in-law's nickname for me (smelly vegetarian) has always stuck.
Also...thanks a million to my Zaar fairy godperson :)!!!
