#167: Parsnip Apple Soup

Oops! I accidentally skipped this recipe. But here it is.

#166: Apricot Walnut Coffee Cake

Not a fan of this one. It was good, but not a winner, u know. I made only a halved recipe.

#165: Choice of salad and Teresa’s Dressing

#164: Harvard Beets

I've done this once before and this time it turned out better. First time I used canned beets and they were in a  vinegar broth (as they usually are here) and the result was way too sour. This time I boiled the beets etc and the result was good!

#163: Wolffie’s Cocoa Cake & Chocolate Fudgey Frosting

A note to self: whenever there is soft tofu in a cake batter, the result is always good!

#162: Faux Fish & Veganica.com Cajun Sweet Potato Fries



I didn't have any kelp powder, so instead I'm using some wakame seaweed in the broth. Also I thought about marinating the faux fish in miso-mustard-marinade over night. Let's see how it turns out!

The sweet potato fries were really tasty, but I guess the oven should have been in a higher temperature, because the fries were a little too soft!

#161: Breakfast Brown Rice Pudding

#160: Cinnamon-Spiced Roasted Veggies

We've made this receipe before, so I'm skipping it. Also I skipped the Pickles-receipe, 'cos it sort of freaked me out!

#159: Eileen’s Sesame Ginger Stir-Fry

#158: Anything Goes Fruit ‘n’ Nut Smoothie

Tasty!

I didn't have any frozen fruit, so I used frozen red currants and kiwi.

#157: Emira’s Speedy Gourmet Kale & Tofu Delight

After making this receipe I realized what is the difference with kale and cabbage! Here I used a few too many chili flakes, so the result was a little too spicy for my taste. Also I found that the cabbage was a little too hard, so I sauteed it 10 min extra and added ½ cup of natural soygurt to soften the chiliness!

#156: Choice of salad and Wolffie’s Balsamic Vinegar Dressing

#155: Coconut Pie Pancakes & Economy “Maple” Pancake Syrup

Loved the coconut milk in these pancakes. In the search of the perfect pancake, I would mix coconut milk, cardamom, raspberries and walnuts, oh!


#154: Sarah’s Green Split Pea Soup

I really liked this one. It was a tasty everyday dish. Instead of split peas, I used crossed green peas.

#153: Berry Oat Squares

Tasty! I used raspberries, blueberries and raspberryjam.

#152: Monday Morning Meusli

#151: Vegan Fruit Juice Flavored Jell-o-Tin

I hate Jello, so I made only like 1/4 of the receipe. But it was good to try The Veg Set for the first time.

#150: Curry Fennel Cauliflower Bake

Yum! I didn't have enough cauliflower, so I added some green beans.

#149: Tomato Cabbage Soup

I thought this one would suck, but it was surprisingly tasty. I substituted the caraway seeds with fennel seeds and they really made the dish.

#148: Chocolate Pecan Cookies

Only after making the dough I realized that there was no fat going into the batter, only the soft tofu, wow! But there was something wrong with the recipe: the result was not crunchy but more like a cake batter..

#147: Festive Stuffed Butternut Squash

I've been complaining a lot about the amount of different pumpkin recipes, having trouble finding any kind of pumpkins and the prices. Then out of the blue I ran into reasonably priced AND organic butternut squash at my nearest supermarket. Wow!

I liked the recipe. Maybe the filling could have been better with something that would have given it more moisture, like soft tofu or yoghurt.


#146: Quinoa Black Bean Salad

#145: Chocolate Walnut Truffles

This receipe was super-easy! Gonna make it again.

#144: Dilip's Stuffed Manicotti w Roasted Red Pepper & Porcini Mushroom Sauce


#143: Bountiful Beans & Brown Rice

#142: Cinnamon Donut Holes

#141: Cauliflower Red Lentil Soup

#140: Margo’s Veggie Peanut Stew

You really can't go wrong with peanut butter in a savory dish, can you?. This one reminded me of another repeipe. I didn't blend the stew, I thought it was better that way.

#139: Not for the Faint of Heart Hot Chocolate

Here we go again - one month's entrys in one weekend. Girl, when are you gonna learn!
