* 2019-11-12 [https://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2019/09/11/pumpkin-mac-cheese/ pumpkin mac and cheese] 2x, but I baked it with breadcrumbs like in [http://www.theinventivevegetarian.com/pumpkin-mac-and-cheese/ this previous recipe] plus http://hellyeahitsvegan.com/vegan-pumpkin-bread/ vegan pumpkin bread] and [https://lilluna.com/pumpkin-chocolate-chip-cookies/ pumpkin chocolate chip cookies]. The mac was OK - easy to make, but kinda plain, even though I also added the spices from the second recipe too. The hunt for a good vegan mac and cheese recipe sadly continues. The bread and cookies (with icing!) were great though! All together it still only used about half the pumpkin puree from a pumpkin though - we still have 2 pots in the fridge... | * 2020 March, April, May, June - open house cancelled due to covid-19 shutdown. Stay safe, stay healthy. | ||
* 2020-02-29 [https://www.yummly.com/recipe/Thai-Eggplant-Mushroom-Curry-1524819 Thai eggplant mushroom curry] 4x. Used limes instead of lemon and dried shiitake mushrooms which were soaked in cold water for at least 1 hour. Also used a mixture of coconut cream and powdered coconut milk with the mushroom water in place of the coconut milk.

Plus some [https://www.onegreenplanet.org/vegan-recipe/cardamom-carrot-cake-with-kombucha-frosting/ vegan cardamom carrot cake] for desert. The rice was good but interestingly more plain that I remember. The curry was great, very unusual making it, but lots of flavor at the end, the cayenne pepper really gives it a nice kick. The carrot cake was AMAZING. | |||
* 2020-02-11 [https://knowledge.hacklab.to/w/images/4/42/DanDanNoodles.JPG Traditional Dan Dan Noodles] from a Sichuan cookbook. Plus hackbread and vegan brownies. We added some extra veggies to the pasta, and of course subbed in Tempeh for pork (to make it vegan - original inspiration was this [https://www.onegreenplanet.org/vegan-recipe/vegan-and-gluten-free-tempeh-meatballs/ tempeh meatball recipe] from the wishlist). It was good - not as spicy as you might expect, but the flavor grows on you over time, my opinion of the dish was a lot higher at the end than in the first few bites. Frustratingly the recipe seems to be somewhat broken - half of the ingredients, it doesn't tell you what to do with them, so we just added them to the pasta. The brownies were very googey, but tasted great otherwise. | |||
* 2020-02-03 [https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/238662/slow-cooker-jambalaya-vegan/ vegan jambalaya] 3x with [https://holycowvegan.net/golden-roasted-curry-mustard-potatoes/ golden roasted curry mustard potatoes] a repeat 2x and [https://www.noracooks.com/vegan-chocolate-cake/ the best vegan chocolate cake] for dessert. We were *way* off recipe with the jambalaya, but it was good anyway. No seitan or vegan sausage, so we subbed two kinds of (dried) mushrooms and some chili bamboo slices. Then forgot the rice. Also added some lemon juice at the end, and of course didn't use a slow cooker. The potatoes, great as always, super yummi, we should consider making them a favorite. The cake, by ATrain, quite good! | |||
* 2020-01-28 A recipe from the archives [https://www.foodfaithfitness.com/moroccan-cauliflower-soup-with-carrots-apples-and-pistachio-cream-vegan-paleo/ Moroccan cauliflower soup with carrots and apples] separated the pistachio cream, all x3. Roasted the cauliflowers and carrots before combining. Probably needed more salt and probably needed more apples or omitted them since they were barely noticeable.

* 2020-01-21 [https://cookieandkate.com/mexican-quinoa-stew-recipe/ mexican quinoa stew] 4x and hackbread with nutmeg and "mexican" garlic bread. The stew was good, very filling, and a nice level of space (with only 6 of the 8 jalapeños, but they were big ones). The mexican garlic bread was basically onion + jalapeños + garlic + vegan margarine, worked really well, spicy, tasted great! There was also [https://www.womanscribbles.net/swedish-cardamom-buns/ Cardamom buns] for dessert, delicious! | |||
* 2020-01-14 [https://www.ilovevegan.com/cheesy-vegan-potato-broccoli-casserole/ cheesy vegan potato broccoli casserole] 2x with 1/4 of [https://simpleveganblog.com/vegan-cheese/ vegan cheese] to replace the Daiya. I forgot the salt, but otherwise it was great, a lot of work to thinly slice things, but satisfying in the end. Also, hackbread with tandoori masala, it was surprisingly good! And [https://afternoonexpress.co.za/recipes/vanilla-chai-fudge/2946 vanilla chai fudge], with some rampant off-recipe substitutions, it came out fascinating (with granulated sugar crystals!) but overwhelmingly sweet, just like fudge usually is :-) | |||
* 2020-01-07 [https://rasamalaysia.com/spicy-sichuan-noodles/ Spicy Sichuan Noodles] 2x and [https://www.chinasichuanfood.com/kung-pao-cauliflower/ Kung Pao Cauliflower] 2x (but with Broccoli). Both excellent, the noodles were indeed SUPER spicy, atoic even :-), would make them again, easy and awesome flavor. The stirfry, great as well, nice and fresh. | |||
* apparently there was a saving problem with an edit I made, and we lost 2 weeks of data. Plus we missed, Christmas, of course. | |||
* 2019-12-17 [https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/jerk-sweet-potato-black-bean-curry jerk sweet potato and black bean curry] a favorite repeat, 2x. Plus hack bread and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lD2OOTx2G9k&feature=emb_logo gourmet twinkies] (!) The curry was amazing, as always - this one was a little sweeter than usual, probably because I didn't measure the sugar, just dumped some hard lumps we had in. The "twinkies" were super fun to make, and good, but I think not as similar to twinkies as we were hoping they would be. We didn't have any cake flour (and therefore used white flour) so they were a bit heavier / chewier than the real recipe would have been, but even so, I don't think they were very close to twinkies... fun though :-) | |||
* 2019-12-10 [https://www.onegreenplanet.org/vegan-recipe/lemon-and-walnut-linguine-with-roasted-broccoli/ lemon and walnut linguine with roasted broccoli] 3x plus bread and chocolate chip cookies. 3x wasn't nearly enough, we ran out of food for the first time at the new space! It was good, VERY lemon. | |||
* 2019-12-03 [https://www.yumsome.com/quick-n-easy-vegan-tom-yam/ Vegan Tom Yum Soup] 8x, plus hackbread with cinnamon. We used this plastic bottle of Tom Yum paste, rather than making the flavor from scratch as this recipe does - worked out awesome, one of the best tasting dinners in awhile, AND it actually tasted like Tom Yum soup, despite the lack of fish paste. Would make again for sure - in fact, we only used half the container, so will HAVE to make again soon :-).

* 2019-11-26 [https://healthynibblesandbits.com/vegan-butternut-squash-curry-with-spinach/ Butternut squash curry with spinach] (remembered to include the curry this time) served with rice. Nothing added/removed from the recipe but I want to see if the dish still works without the crushed tomatoes. Also want to see if baking/browning the squash before adding to the curry would add more to its flavor but the combination of squash and spinach does go well with the rice.

* 2019-11-19 [https://www.mydarlingvegan.com/curried-pumpkin-soup/ Pumpkin soup with cashew creme]. Added some mushrooms but forgot to include the curry powder while cooking so it became just "pumpkin soup". The cashew creme didn't seem to do much besides provide a visual aesthetic. There was a comment about how it had some chicken flavor which had me worried whether I used a chicken bullion cube (instead of a vegetable cube) but hopefully the chicken flavor came from the mushrooms.

* 2019-11-05 [https://www.noracooks.com/easy-vegan-potato-soup/ easy vegan potato soup] 3x, made a full pot! It got an enormous number of compliments, more than any dish I can remember. I personally though it was medocre though. I added some extra spices at the end - some garam masala for earthiness, some nutritional yeast flakes for more creamy, some pepper, and some garlic powder. Plus lots of salt. Would make again - with a food processor it's not so bad to make. | * 2019-11-05 [https://www.noracooks.com/easy-vegan-potato-soup/ easy vegan potato soup] 3x, made a full pot!

The curry ended up positively *atomic* due to me adding just a random amount of green curry paste from my huge container; it was otherwise unremarkable. The pineapple fried rice was *wonderful*, this recipe actually causes the pineapple to be awesome due to frying it for a long time.
