what the hell _does_ a vegan eat anyway?

Dinner 11/05

Tofu Piccata
(from the Candle Cafe cookbook)

Grilled Asparagus

Risotto Cake
(fried patty pan risotto -- ring mold alert!)

Verdure al Forno
(recipe from Giada De Laurentiis -- for the heavy cream we used a combo of soft tofu and soy milk, and subbed "follow your heart" mozzarella)

Biscotti alla Parmigiana
(another Giada recipe )

Dessert

Magnolia's Vanilla Cupcakes (additional pic)
(we made a half recipe -- and subbed flax seed "eggs" -- ground flax seed mixed with water -- in place of the eggs, and used Rapadura sugar, which made them slightly more brown, but no less tasty)


You can tell that Liz was watching Giada's show this morning ;)

The last two items can been seen in the wide shot -- we cut the recipe in half and subbed unsalted soy margarine and vegan parmesan (Pamazano) for the wonderfully delicate biscotti.

as for dessert... <homer>drooool.. cuuuupcakes</homer> ;)
