BIG B

tofu scrambo.
reg toast.
avocado toast.
roasty, toasty, smoky, spicy homeboyfries.
blackened tomatoes.
y'know what that's  called?
yup.
the big B.
i needed it before i could begin to brave the bad weather and worse vibes of
a mountain valley early winter snowstormy day.
yup.
a snow day.
but also, an ice day.
and also, a darrrrrrrrrrk day.
with added wind for added discomfort.
expert?
nah, man. that ain't it.
anyway, my guts were prepared more than my skeleton body.
look:

WOOOOOOORD.
that's sourdough, from-scratch, toasted up-with raspberry jam,vegan butter,
and some slab-style sriracha-and-sesame sprankled AVOCADO jauns.
wu-TANG!
that's straight up boomfire for your face.
the tomatoes are just fried with a splash of olive oil,
because they're dope all on their own.
the scrambo?
well, that's some other other sh!t.
black beans, onion, bell pepper, poblano pepper, jalapeno pepper,
cilantro, and scallions,
plus exxxtra firm 'fu, with turmeric and GPOP and smoked paprika
and black salt and pepper....
if you measure spices for tofu scram', you're a genuine bummer.
i stand by that statement.
-
and those skin-on red new roasted homeboy potatoes??
maaaaaaan,
that's 3 bad spuds, cubed,
and tossed with olive oil, cayenne, smoked paprika, GPOP, black pepper,
and a lil' baby bit of ground coriander,
all roasted on a parchment lined tray at 375℉, until they were crisp and golden.
did i pan fry them just a bit before i added the cilantro and scallions?
i did.
did that make them better?
it did.
did i eat all the food with my big dumb face?
i DID.
and is that an expert way to begin a real bummer of a day?
it IS.
ha!
i love good food.
i may not make as much superfancy unnecessary magic anymore,
but when i do, i really remember how F*ing awesome it feels to enjoy
a real whole-food home-cooked intentional and inventive vegan meal.
i had a moment in the morning.
and i liked it;
never quiet, never soft.....
