Metal cookie cutters seem to work the best -- they're thinner and sharper. But we also had good results with a small plastic cookie cutter (Little shmoo cut out hearts for me :-).Jennifershmoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08663322884550580226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1131592838711924062005-11-09T19:20:00.000-08:002005-11-09T19:20:00.000-08:00Having both worked with jicama my boyfriend and I ...Having both worked with jicama my boyfriend and I are astounded that you were able to get such perfect looking leaf shapes from them.

They changed the recipe back for their nuggets, and I heard a rumor that they were going to change their patties back to vegan. We haven't even looked at them since Boca changed their recipe to make their chicken free patties vegan.

I baked them for about 8 minutes in the oven, then packed them with a loose foil covering in the lunchbox. I just double-checked with the shmoo, and he tells me they weren't tough at school.<BR/><BR/>Hi, dayna. Re. carob, if you've never tried it it may take a little getting used to. It has a sweet taste but doesn't taste exactly like chocolate. You can substitute carob powder for cocoa powder in recipes, or make it into hot carob cocoa, or throw a spoonful into smoothies. Roasted carob powder has a better flavor than plain carob powder, but either one will do. I really enjoy the taste of it, especially with banana. If you're vegan, watch out for whey or milk in storebought carob chips and candies.Jennifershmoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08663322884550580226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1131584796775673712005-11-09T17:06:00.000-08:002005-11-09T17:06:00.000-08:00Wow, those jicama fall leafs are the best thing ye...Wow, those jicama fall leafs are the best thing yet, and I don't even like jicama that much. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1131584192433049212005-11-09T16:56:00.000-08:002005-11-09T16:56:00.000-08:00Gosh.
