* [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 :-) | |||
* two dinner Eric didn't make - they were apparently good, but I don't know what they were :-) | |||
* 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... | |||
* 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. | |||
* 2019-10-22 [https://jessicainthekitchen.com/thai-green-curry-vegan-gluten-free/ thai green curry] 4x and [https://cookieandkate.com/thai-pineapple-fried-rice-recipe/ thai pineapple fried rice] 2x (no eggs). 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. Work, for sure, but would make again in a heart beat, totally great. | |||
* 2019-10-15 [https://healthiersteps.com/recipe/vegan-white-bean-soup/ white bean soup] 3x with [http://www.breadman.com/recipes/specialty-breads/beer-bread.aspx beer bread] and [https://www.thelifejolie.com/rice-krispie-treat-turkey/ rice krispie treat turkey]. The beer bread, disaster, it didn't rise at all, and so was super dense. Our resisdent beer brewing expert says that probably there was a preservative (or similar) chemical in the beer which resulted in the early death of all yeast. Need to check ingredient labels in the future. The soup, great, and easy to make too, would make again. The "turkey": hilarious, and fun to make too. Happy Thanksgiving! | * 2019-10-15 [https://healthiersteps.com/recipe/vegan-white-bean-soup/ white bean soup] 3x with [http://www.breadman.com/recipes/specialty-breads/beer-bread.aspx beer bread] and [https://www.thelifejolie.com/rice-krispie-treat-turkey/ rice krispie treat turkey].

* 2019-10-08 [https://cookieandkate.com/creamy-vegan-butternut-squash-linguine-with-fried-sage/ butternet squash linguine] 2x a favorite repeat, this time without the fried sage, since the store doesn't sell sage. Added some roasted tomatoes as recommended. It was great as usual! Plus garlic rosemary bread. | * 2019-10-08 [https://cookieandkate.com/creamy-vegan-butternut-squash-linguine-with-fried-sage/ butternet squash linguine] 2x a favorite repeat, this time without the fried sage, since the store doesn't sell sage.
