Noodles with Greens and Rushmoon Sauce ♥

My Elflings love noodles, and their most recent, favourite dish was the “Noodles with Greens and Rushmoon Sauce” I made the other day. My middle Elfling commented that “…it reminded her of the mushroom sauce she used to have at her Oma’s house, only better. But please don’t tell that to Oma.” ♥

Rushmoon Sauce

¼ C safflower* oil

1 punnet of mushrooms*

½ C flour*

1 medium onion*

2 Tbsp coarse mustard*

2 C water

2 cloves garlic*

2-3 green onions*

salt and pepper* to taste

* = Organic

∴ Clean the mushrooms, then slice them thinly. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms to the hot oil and saute until they begin to shrink. While the mushrooms are sauteing, dice your onion, mince your garlic, and chop your green onions. Add your onions and mustard to the mushrooms and continue to saute. Add your flour and stir well. Slowly add your water (1 Cup at a time) and stir well to avoid lumps and sticking to the bottom of the pan. Once you’ve reached the desired consistency (alternating between adding water and/or flour), stir in your garlic, green onions, salt and pepper. Serve over noodles, rice, quinoa, etc. Enjoy! ♥

Sauteing rushmoons smell soooo good to me. ♥

I had to be super-fast to grab this picture! The colours turned out really well. We had such a great party today. Family came over to celebrate with us, eat some food, sing, and enjoy cake. Super-nice and super-fun. We also do an un-birthday for my middle Elfling, because her actual b-day is December 30. We do the same for the twinnigans in December, and we’ve been celebrating this way for 8 years. *happy dancing*

The cake before cutting.

Our spread of food. I made tortillas, black bean mash, guac, salsa, and tofu-quinoa taco filling for wraps. There’s some left-over, so supper is solved for tonight. Woot!
