Yeah, I said carrots. I was picking the veggies that needed to be picked from the garden… tomatoes, various peppers…

and noticed one carrot popping out of the ground. Just one, I swear I saw only one. That’s what started it, the frenzy of what was to become my carrot picking/digging/thinning of the afternoon.

(on this one, there is a TON of carrots hiding in the pile)

I don’t know how many there were, but I’m staring at the two (heavy) bowls… (Doc was trying to swipe a few)

AND this is MAYBE a quarter of what’s left. Needless to say I’ll have to find some recipes with carrots, lots and lots of carrots. (I don’t even like carrots that much… what was I thinking?)

Mmmmm maybe carrot cake, I like carrot cake…

So I found the tofu scramble I wanted to make (originally for breakfast) for dinner. The original one I made included mushroom, but this one I decided would be onions, peppers and garlic.

Oh. My. Garbonzo. This thing was amazing. A little spicy from the peppers, and a wonderfulness from the garlic, all wrapped up in a delicious tortilla (it was green… I dunno, maybe spinach or garden or something?).

People have always raved about tofu scramble, and I always thought “what’s the big deal?” Well, now I know. The big deal is a total party for my taste buds.

First, I used a fresh pepper from my garden (yeah, I know!)

Then I tossed that into the skillet with a little oil and red onion.

Then the good stuff — TOFU!

I let that cook for a few minutes, then added the spices.

Finally, I put on the tortilla, wrapped it up and chowed down.

Anyways, it was good. (I can’t wait to have the left overs tomorrow!)
