Fried Mochi

I just got an email from Olivia Wilde that made me sooo happy!  She is currently in Santa Fe working on the film Cowboys and Aliens... Here is what she wrote me:
 
"The catering chef on set here in Santa Fe has been using your book to cook for me...I've been hardcore vegan the whole time without having to compromise due to lack of food. For a snack today he made me your Fried Mochi. To die for. For dessert? Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups! Heaven. Sam Rockwell has been ordering what he calls the "vegan surprise" every day, along with many of the crew. So cool. Yesterday Jason the chef made your rice crispy treats!"

Choc PB Cups

This makes me so happy I can't even stand it!!!!!
 
Laura Linney, who was my costar in Time Stands Still on Broadway, is doing the same thing on the set of her new show, The Big C. She is having the catering people make a whole section of vegan options, using recipes from my book!

I love these women!!!!!

I just made my very first recipe from this book... my very first vegetarian recipe at that.... and it was delicous!!!! I made the Seitan Picatta w/white wine and capers and it was delicious. I was so inspired to try new and fresh things- I even made brussel sprouts! (first time ever... my mom didn't make us eat "green things!" My tounge and my tummy are VERY content!

What section of the grocery store would Mochi be in?  I haven't been able to find it

YAY! Tara! That's wonderful!! How fun!! I didn't get to make my cauliflower steaks tonight, but, surely tomorrow. I also am going to try the peanut butter cups! mmmm :)

Erin.....I haven't been able to find Mochi in any of my grocery stores. Someone here said that they have it at Whole Foods, but, that's a 45 minute drive for me.....sooo...I'll wait until I'm in the area and plan accordingly so as not to waste gas just to go buy Mochi! Very un earth friendly...hey? LOL!

I love that date apple cinnamon oatmeal too!

and i am yet to find mochi. oi dont have a car, and the only place i can think of that may have it is a good hours walk from my flat.

one day soon mochi will be found. i cant wait to try those waffles.

I got the book from the library, read through it, decided to try it for a month and just ordered it on amazon...I'm on day 3 of vegan eating-made the collard greens with pine nuts and raisins for dinner last night-delicious! Made the peanut butter brown rice crispy bars and everyone took one for lunch today! Tonight I'm going to make miso soup...I'm excited to see how I will feel.  I'm in the middle of a bad cold/cough just now but looking forward to feeling better...

I just got my book can't wait to try these :D:D

I espeicially love Olivia Wilde and I'm so glad you have support like this from your peers.Bless you

Oh, and that pic of the chocolate peanut butter cups-- to die for :p yum
