I guess I'll start with breakfast food, and go from there. Orange hazelnut scones, made by Heather, adapted from ExtraVeganZa:
This my look like just a bowl of fruit to you, but it is my favourite fruit salad right now. 1 banana, 4-5 strawberries, 1 red grapefruit (with any excess juice from cutting it up poured in). The strawberry/grapefruit combo is really complementary... and I can't get enough..
Some muffins, made by Matt's mom. The back one is blueberry, the front one is "morning glory" - some delicious combination of bran, carrots, pineapple, I think sunflower seeds, raisins? and who knows what else, but they're yummy.
Vegan junk food. Grilled tofutti "cheese" with fried onions and tomatoes, and breaded seitan chicken fingers. This is a terrible picture, sorry.
Quinoa Pine Nut Pilaf. This originally started as someone else's recipe, but I've changed it so much by now that it's .. no longer even close. I love it, though.
Lentil curry, loosely based on this recipe, on brown basmati rice.
Agave nectar cupcakes (VCTOTW), for mother's day. Pretend they're not in spongebob liners.
I made the blueberry mousse and tried to get fancy with it. The mousse gave me a lot of problems, though.. it was way too runny to begin with, I added 1 1/2 t of xanthan gum to try and gel it up a bit. It got much better, but still didn't quite keep it's shape for very long, and the tops tried to run away shortly after I assembled the cupcakes.. oh well.
Mocha mousse (VCTOTW), with melted chocolate on top. I think I like this recipe more than any of the cupcake recipes in the whole book, which is saying a lot. The texture of this mousse is so good.. I make it to eat by itself, nevermind inside a cupcake.
That's all for now. I promise to return to a normal schedule in July, there's so much stuff I want to make.
