Wow, this sounds amazing!  I don't grill, so I guess these could be pan-fried,

yes?  I just adore Thai food!

 

I should introduce myself.  I'm Angela, and I've been a member of this group

before.  (I only left because I was trying to reduce my groups, but I

missed this one so I'm back.)  I'm a vegan, again, since 1 Oct.  That's of

course World Vegetarian Day, which was actually a complete coincidence...or was

it?  LOL!  I've been a vegetarian off-and-on since I was 13, and a recent

viewing of PETA's latest investigation into Land 'o Lakes and their treatment of

cows made me determined to go vegan again and stick with it.  Already I've

dropped a few pounds, gained more energy, and have much clearer sinuses and less

allergy troubles, not to mention my conscience is clear and I know I'm following

the right path again.

 

I don't have any great new recipes to knock your socks off, but hopefully soon

that will change.  :-)  Anyway, thanks again for having me!
