Vegan Pesto and Bruschetta
Last Sunday Rob and I made vegan pesto (with our very own basil) and some great bruschetta too.
Vegan Recipes
Burrito Art
Today we made delicious Thai Tofu Burritos inspired by our frequent trips to Burrito Art in East Atlanta back in the ’90s. (Burrito Art was a cozy, funky place where you’d eat weird gourmet burritos by candlelight.)
Tempeh-Bacon Sandwiches
On Saturday we made the most delicious tempeh-bacon sandwiches using this recipe I found on 101 Cookbooks and tweaked just the tiniest bit. We piled some hearty whole-grain toast with mashed avocado, baby spinach, homemade tempeh bacon, and Matt’s Wild Cherry tomatoes roasted in olive oil, brown sugar, and salt.
Vegan Jam Bars
The other day Mom gave me some homemade strawberry-fig jam that was way too good to eat on toast or anything boring like that. So I made delicious vegan jam bars with it! I’ve been eating them every morning for breakfast. They have a crumbly, buttery, sugary, oatmeal-y crust, and the recipe called for the whole jar of jam.
Vegan Snickerdoodles
On Sunday night, Rob baked cookies, which is so comforting to me. I like to sit at the kitchen table and watch him carefully sift and measure. Rob was making vegan snickerdoodles, and our cat Carl was sitting on the table, watching too, and I was petting Carl and calling him “Snickerdoodle” just to make myself mad.
Vegan Butterscotch Cookies
On Saturday we finally finished painting the picket fence around our pond. It took five hours in some truly brutal heat, but we got it done and it looks beautiful!
