Lunch.

Gardein vegan meatballs simmered in BBQ sauce and pineapple over instant mash. Quick and easy lunch!

Tuscan minestrone soup.

Recipe from The Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen. I left out the pasta and used potatoes instead.

Simple yet so satisfying!

Another view of yesterday's raisin bread. So flavorful and tender.

Boiled raisin cake and tea.

3 pm and I'm beat taking care of baby. He's down for a nap right now. Looked forward to this all day. Easy to make boiled raisin cake and a hot cup of tea. I used half sultanas and half cranberries. You can find the recipe at all recipes.com. 

Hank is growing up so fast. 8 weeks old now.

Broccoli, kale and white bean soup flavored with Italian herbs, garlic and olive oil. Yummy.

Another hummus, beet, avocado sandwich!

Another beet/hummus sandwich!

Wacky Cake.

If you google "wacky cake" you will find a depression era recipe for chocolate cake that uses no eggs, but instead vinegar and baking soda to make the cake rise. A lot of vegans swear by this recipe. It makes a delicious and tender cake. The frosting recipe is just margarine, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, vanilla and soymilk whipped together.
