To and from London

Sorry about not posting anything on Sunday.  I know I said I would post an attempt at a Pinterest recipe but after our long journey to London I didn't have the energy.  Although on Thursday night I did attempt at making zucchini ravioli but failed.

I tried making this :http://www.pinterest.com/pin/125045327128557421/

but I failed miserably.  Well thats not true.  One came out perfect but the other ones did not.  The reason for that is because I did not have a proper vegetable peeler.  Since we just moved in we don't have many kitchen tools and who would have thought that a vegetable peeler would be that important to making food.  

I ended up just taking all the thick zucchini strips and placing them in a baking dish and layering it like a lasagna.  I also made some lettuce wraps again and a few egg rolls.  I actually didn't make real egg rolls as I didn't have the egg roll wrappers.  

I ended up making a vegetable stir fry minus the soy sauce and sesame oil and all the other flavours that denote a stir fry and placing them in the middle of pieces of white bread. 
I took the white bread beforehand and flattened it as flat as possible to make it resemble some sort of dough.  I place the stir fry in the middle and tried to roll it up.  Fried it a little on each side in a frying pan and let it finished in the oven.  

They ended up looking a little worse than this.  Think more bread like.

I've been using Nutritional yeast for everything to try to cover our protein needs.  I am attempting to eat less meat every week with more fresh vegetables.  So far it seems like my fiancé doesn't seem to miss the meat but who knows what cravings we might have later. 

I think I'll try making this for Sunday:  http://www.pinterest.com/pin/125045327129386989/ 
Looks good doesn't it.

For now here is a video of our trip to London.
