Ellie's Mousse

Whoever says they don't like tofu is a dummy. Do you like rich, creamy, decadent things? Tofu can be your saving grace. It's the perfect, healthy vehicle for creamy sauces, dips and soups. Here Ellie Krieger uses it in her accidentally vegan chocolate mousse.
(There's some major chocolate porn here too. Just sayin.)

Once had to cross the border to buy this deliciousness! Now available in Canada. Bless.

Guy's Fries

Next time I'm in Asia I'm hitting the streets immediately and looking for these. 

p.s There is something meta about a television not only in the background of a cooking show, but the fact that it is left ON and nobody's watching it. Leave it to Guy Fieri to not only tickle our bellies but also share some sort of existential experience.

Paula's Avocado Salsa

Just as SNL's Stefon would say: this has everything. Bobby Deen double dipping with a giant spoon, Paula's eyes literally lighting up at the sound of crunchy chips, a kiddie-pool sized bowl of produce. Ok, maybe that's it. Nonetheless, these two make salsa exciting!

Ina's Caponata

What's more fun? Watching Ina cook with a 6'4 giant OR seeing her transform an astronomical amount of sweet and savory ingredients into the best caponata ever? Forget it; we can have BOTH. Together. At once.

Cookie Butter a.k.a. Biscuit Spread is a real thing, and it's often accidentally vegan. Who invented this? Who invented ground-up cookies for spreading purposes? Marry me.
Thanks to Ella Kitty for sharing!

Bobby's Crunchy Avocado

Y'know those crumbly chip crumbs at the bottom of your bag? They ARE A GIFT. Now you have every excuse to make Bobby Flay's vegan bowl of fun. Dare I suggest adding a bit of corn? Ya got a complete meal y'know. No more wonderin what's for dinner.
