Pizza and gingerbread.

Picked this up on sale. 

It was ok. Loved the cheese but I'm not a fan of the gluten free crust. Wish they made them with regular crust.

First time trying this. Used 3 TB chickpea water for 1 egg. 

Didn't rise much at all but very moist. Taste wise, I thought it was too over the top with the ginger, a little too strong and almost bitter? I like gingerbread a little more subtle than this.

Got the ornaments out to decorate the tree.

Newest addition.

More weekend foods.

The usual pizza! Always delicious!

Love these cookies from India.

Can't let another precious day off go by without another fry up! I never eat breakfast on any normal day so this is a treat.

Baking will not be ignored! This is an orange flavored white cake with orange glaze using fresh squeezed orange.

Pizza pizza.

I had a pizza craving last night so I made this with the Trader Joe's dough and vegan mozzarella. I left it in the oven a bit too long so the cheese got burnt but it tasted just fine. Sometimes you don't want a bunch of toppings, just a good cheese pizza.

Cheeseless Bbq chicken pizza.

Last night I thawed out my pizza dough from Trader Joe's and made this delicious pizza. I spread a thin layer of bbq sauce on the dough then cooked up a bag of Gardein bbq chick'n wing and cut it up into pieces, then added red onion, grilled piquillo peppers, garlic and almond miso parmesan sprinkles. After the pizza came out of the oven, I sprinkled fresh chopped cilantro on top. Yum!

BBQ Chicken PIzza

Being a native Californian, I used to love BBQ chicken pizzas in my pre-vegan days. Specifically the one made famous by California Pizza Kitchen. Don't know why I waited so long to try this but it was simple. Trader Joe's pizza dough brushed with a light coat of olive oil and bbq sauce, then Trader Joe's vegan mozzarella, Gardein chicken strips that were sauteed in bbq sauce, red onion, a little drizzle of bbq sauce and some crushed pepper flake. Into the oven to cook and then sprinkled with fresh chopped cilantro when it came out. Was great!

With a big mound of arugula salad on top.

Huge Photo Post To Make You Hungry.

Was going through my food photos and I realized I neglected to share a bunch of deliciousness that I've been eating. Check it out!

I'll start with the black bean burgers I made tonight after work. Very simple, just black beans, onions, garlic, herbs, spices and oats to bind the mixture. Bake for 30 minutes flipping halfway and you've got a tasty burger. One can black beans makes 4 burgers.

Served with salsa and vegan thousand island sauce.

One weekend I made homemade hummus, tomato bruschetta and olive tapenade. Love eating this stuff with fresh bread.

The grape leaves are from Trader Joes and they come in a can.

A night out at CPK. The Tuscan hummus is vegan!

The roasted veggie salad is also vegan with the ginger hoisin dressing. So good.
