But I do have a few ...Well now, this was EXCELLENT! But I do have a few notes:<br />1. Tofu drained or not? I drained it and didn't have the leftover liquid you mentioned. I got a nice, cohesive mixture.<br />2. How BIG is your "little cast iron skillet?" Mine is a 12-incher and again your recipe outgrew it. (I had this happen with another of your recipes) Next time I'll whip out my cast iron dutch oven or fryer. <br />3. Pie plate? More like 9x13 pan. And now I have plenty of awesome leftovers.<br />Substitutions (they all worked):<br />1. Trader Joe's corn pasta because my guys HATE whole wheat.<br />2. Trader Joe's marinara sauce instead of tomato sauce because I forgot to buy the other.<br />3. Drained 14 oz can of fire-roasted tomatoes because my fresh tomatoes are about played out for the summer and the grocery store ones suck.<br />4. Baby red, yellow and orange bell peps because I needed to use them up.<br /><br />And OH MAN! Thank you for mentioning Boca crumbles! I've used Morningstar Farms since I went vegetarian 2.5 years ago and I've always thought, "There's gotta to be something better." THIS IS IT! We love it! They aren't gummy and they have a great flavor.<br />Oh yeah, I also added a bit of salt to the tofu mixture and then to the tomato mixture. I felt like the tomato mixture seemed a bit bitter. The salt evened it out pretty well.<br /><br />Great job!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10211499536333065569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120799145024687094.post-69475834898809230302011-01-26T09:37:29.215-08:002011-01-26T09:37:29.215-08:00Made this last night!

Do you have a recommendation for replacing the wine in the recipe? Thanks!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12836780499413751906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120799145024687094.post-83987912015154436122010-06-07T06:03:20.832-07:002010-06-07T06:03:20.832-07:00First, I've been enjoying your blog - I also o...First, I've been enjoying your blog - I also own an edition of the classic red Betty Crocker cookbook and I've been able to successfully veganize many dishes, even meat dishes, from it. <br />Second, though - your comments about the original spaghetti pie sound a little snobby when maybe they shouldn't be... I should say here that my aunt used to make a version of this that I really disliked - with saltine crackers as the top crust and Velveeta cheese. And since my midwestern small-town days of velveeta spaghetti pie, and cottage cheese and hamburger lasagna, I managed to become something of a food snob. <br />Then, I went vegan three years ago. And I had to hear people telling me how "it's not really lasagna if you use tofu..." or it's not really piccata without the real piece of veal or pounded chicken breast, blah blah blah. <br />I'm just saying, I have a newfound appreciation and sympathy for my mother and aunts now who dare to cook "authentic" recipes with cottage cheese and Velveeta and who make cheesecakes with Jello pudding. I'm not saying it's good - I'm sure it's still just as awful as ever - and honestly, my tofu/seitan based cuisine is much tastier and appetizing, probably because I also actually use herbs and spices, :). I'm just saying I can relate now because I have had to make similar bastardizations to classic dishes. <br />I also really dislike Boca burger, I think it tastes like cardboard, no matter how what you do with it. I would use tempeh crumbles, myself. :) <br />Anyway, just my .02. Looking forward to the rest of the recipes.Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10014319280739686738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2120799145024687094.post-6814175867359757542010-06-04T22:32:26.818-07:002010-06-04T22:32:26.818-07:00YUM!!
