Weird Cravings Result in Two Innovative Meals
Starting up hormone pills tends to make you have some pregnancy-like symptoms. As I have recently taken up the birth-control pill to help with clearing up my acne, 
I have been having some weird flavor cravings lately.
Here are two of my recent fake-pregnancy craving meal creations that were quite delicious:
Soy Sweet Potato and Squash
* Microwave a sweet potato by poking several fork holes in it and using the preset cook time for a potato (about 4 mins.).
* Saute onions in oil, add slices or bite-size pieces of yellow squash and zucchini. While cooking, add salt, garlic, pepper, and soy sauce.
* Put cooked potato on plate: mash it, cut it, smash it to bite-able pieces, adding margarine and brown sugar.
* Scoop squash around sweet potato, pour all soy-onion juicy goodness over everything.
* Taste. I added a touch more soy sauce at this point.
Faux Breakfast
* Saute onions in oil. Add diced potatoes (I used frozen, pre-cooked ones; you could microwave the tater a bit to reduce cooking time if you use a fresh one), vegan sausage stuff (I used Amy’s brand), and diced yellow squash and zucchini.
* Add salt, pepper, garlic, oregano, margarine, and syrup. Yup, syrup.
* Taste it … what works here is the contrast of the salt with the sweetness of the syrup. When mine was all cooked and ready to go, I sprinkled on some more sea salt and syrup.
What do you think? I told you I was weird!
