VeganMoFo: Weekend Cooking



I love to cook on the weekends. It's a leisurely thing I like to do on Saturday mornings. This morning I got up early and went shopping for ingredients to make the following:


Vegan Dad's mac and cheese! My favorite! With toasty panko bread crumbs on top.


With a side of beautifully roasted veggies: butternut squash, red peppers, baby carrots, onions, sweet potato and cremini mushrooms with olive oil, fresh rosemary and thyme.


I made these at 9pm last night to have for breakfast this morning! They are Vegan Brunch's "Bakery Style Berry Muffins". I used quebec wild blueberries and mango. They were perfection.


Buster likes to nap on the weekends. I tried to get a pic but he woke up and saw me!

    Everything looks so wonderful especially those roasted vegetables, Mmmmm. Your family is so lucky to have you:)

    What kind of mango did you put in your muffins? (fresh or dried) It sounds so yummy.

    I LOVE Buster's pic, he's the cutest!

    MANGO blueberry muffins? Awesome!

    I love it when I have time to go to the farmers' market on Saturday morning and spend the rest of the day processing my fruits and veggies. Enjoy your cooking and have a great weekend!

    Everything looks so great. The roasted vegetables would especially hit the spot right now. It's amazing that something so simple can taste so good.
