A little late in the post. Last weekend, we had a little party at home for Halloween, fall, late Deepavali - vegetarian and Vegan dishes were on display. One of our friends made very pretty halloween-based cakes and I feel bad about not getting a photo. There were costumes - creative and fun ones! Ours were easy and funny!
Some dishes I made were the Chaat that most people enjoyed. It had a little 'kick' to it too.
Also, pumpkin cookies adapted from this recipe on vegweb.com. I substituted 1/2 cup of applesauce for 1/2 cupe of oil. I did not add nuts and I used craisins and chocolate chips instead. Like all the comments in the recipe, it is slightly more like a 'muffin' or 'cake' than a cookie.
The muffin is from this recipe. I did not change much this time. The last time I made it, it was dense - like a bread. But, this time around - soft, tarty and sweet.
Bean dip adapted from this recipe. I used black beans rather than white because that's what I had. I used 2 cans of beans instead of the one can that the recipe indicates. I also added some chipotle in adobo sauce and vegan sour cream to the recipe. Served it with chips, of course. The leftovers turned into the base for the tortilla pizza for the past 2 days!!
I hope you are doing well and the shoulder get unstuck from your hip, Em.
I love anything pumpkin so I may just have to try these cookies. I find that pumpkin and chocolate is a very good combination even though it does not sound very good. How was the dip?
ReplyDeleteThe dip was really good. I think it may have been better if I had only one can of black beans to 8oz of roasted red pepper. I added some salt at the end and it was a little too much - but, that is easily corrected!
