Introduction

I had some extra vegetarian ingredients laying around the house and decided to see what came of it, and this is what I got.

I like things a bit plain, but you can add salt or pepper to taste and I'm sure it will be delicious.

this dish might actually be vegan... I think. But definitely vegetarian if not.
