http://veganyumyum.com Another Tasty Vegan Flog Fri, 03 Jul 2009 00:37:28 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en I thought I needed only one pancake recipe. Man was I wrong. Now, I'm not the plan-ahead type. It's really a challenge for me to prep food for the following day; not only am I lazy, I'm also pretty fickle. My cravings can disappear nearly as quickly they arrive, so ... http://veganyumyum.com/2009/07/slow-rise-pancakes/ Sorry for the absence, I got pretty sick and needed to take some time off from... everything. Before asparagus season passes us by (it will be gone before you know it!), I thought I'd offer up this simple but flavorful and beautiful side dish. There are lots of times where ... http://veganyumyum.com/2009/05/chili-almond-asparagus/ My husband and I have been watching The Sopranos recently (yes, I'm apparently 10 years behind the curve here), and I can only listen to the characters talk about manicotti and baked ziti so many times before I get a serious craving for some Italian food. It got me ... http://veganyumyum.com/2009/05/rustic-bread-eggplant-lasagna/ I adore this recipe. When I went vegan a little over five years ago, I had a minor panic attack when I realized I'd never eat another Cinnabon again. I remember I used to ask my dad to bring them home from the airport for me when I was ... http://veganyumyum.com/2009/05/perfect-cinnamon-buns/ Spring is here, and it brings with it two of my most favorite seasonal items: morels and fiddlehead ferns. At $28/lb here in Boston, fresh morels are definitely a splurge. But you only need to pick up a few to have them in this dish, and it's well ... http://veganyumyum.com/2009/04/pan-fried-gnocchi-with-morels-and-fiddleheads/ I never was a potato salad person. I'm not sure why. I think it's partly because when someone else makes potato salad, you're not exactly sure what's in it, and it's just this mass of white lumpy stuff. Plus, people tend to add raw onions to potato ... http://veganyumyum.com/2009/04/potato-salad-two-ways/ I always have trouble finding vegan graham crackers at the store. Nearly every single brand has honey in them. The one version that doesn't is full of icky ingredients. When I got my Dandies in the mail, I knew I had to make my own graham crackers ... http://veganyumyum.com/2009/04/graham-crackers-and-dandies/ I have a knack for inventing things that have already been invented. I made my husband an apple pie for his birthday, and was reminded how annoying it is to peel, core, and chop a lot of apples. But I really like pies made with fresh fruit, so ... http://veganyumyum.com/2009/04/apple-pie-coffee-cake/ I've gotten a lot of great comment and emails about the last dish I posted, along with pleas for post more "simple and easy meals." So here's one more. I wasn't going to post this here, because it's SO easy and SO straightforward, I thought it wasn't necessarily ... http://veganyumyum.com/2009/04/simple-fried-rice-with-japanese-seven-spice/ I asked my twitter friends if they'd like to see recipes made for one, and the response was overwhelming; absolutely. A lot of you seem to make lunch for yourself, or have several weeknights where you're cooking solo and want to throw something fresh together without a lot of ... http://veganyumyum.com/2009/03/broccolini-cherry-tomato-and-butter-bean-udon/
