Sometimes everything you want to use up just happens to taste good togther

So Aliza came over last Thursday for dinner right after we received our share from the fruit and veggie co-op. Sarah had also asked me earlier to try to start getting rid of our cheeses, because we had probably 12 different types of cheese in our fridge, and she was afraid some would go bad if we didn't start working on them. Earlier I had also decided that we needed to use nori sheets somehow in our dinner.

The thing that I had been most excited about from fruit and veggie was a leek. I don't know why, but I really wanted to find something interesting to do with it. We also got a big bag of apples, which I thought would go well with the cheese. The only protein we had in the house was a big chunk of tempeh; We decided to combine all of the ingredients into one dish.


We sauteed the leek until soft, and then mixed it in a bowl with ground up tempeh, a mix of 4 different kinds of goat and cow's milk cheeses, and chopped apples with a bit of salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.

This was all put together in a pan with some milk and 2 eggs, in order to make some kind of crustless tart. We shredded and fried the nori and stuck it on top.

It was pretty good, though some of the goats milk cheeses were a bit too smelly for my taste
