Vive and Vengeance (and some bread)

I recently made the brown rice pizza from Vive le Vegan. I used entirely different veggies, but it was so yummy!

The sauce was the Vegan with a Vengeance Pizza Sauce. I used fresh tomatoes because we were out of tinned.

Sourdough bread and veggies from the garden:

I'm going to try the sourdough thing again, I don't think the flavor was very sourdough-y, but the bread was SOOO good. There's still a few slices left!

Okay, you must try the Maple Mustard Potatoes and String Beans in VwaV! I loved them and my whole family did too, which is an accomplishment. I made extra sauce after they were done baking, but I think I may have used too many veggies in the first place because I had no idea how many potatoes equal 1 lb and how many beans to use. The beans were fresh from the garden.

Chocolate Chip Cookies from Vive le Vegan:

My brother was on crutches a few days ago and on Monday I was home with him all day. He was on the computer most of the day and in the afternoon he was hungry and said he wanted a chocolate chip cookie. I was wanting to try Dreena's cookies, so I got out Vive and made some. I gave him 3 cookies and he wanted more. So I gave him the rest of the batch and he STILL wanted more cookies. So I went and made another batch of chocolate chip cookies and the peanut butter cookies from Vive. Next time I'll make sure to make enough cookies the first time because this kid will eat 15 at a time!

I was home by myself one morning and I made some oreo-like cookies without the cream filling and crushed them to crumbs to make VwaV's peanut butter silk pie! This was SOOOOO extremely rich. I ate some for lunch and forgot to take a picture, so here it is with a slice (or a few) taken out:


Last night I also made Sunflower Lentil Pie with Sesame Mustard Tahini sauce from Vive. It wasn't very attractive and the camera was ALL THE WAY upstairs, so there's no picture, but it was very very very good. I took Dreena's suggestion and mashed the leftovers with Vegenaise and made a sandwich on my sourdough bread. Mmmm...I suggest adding the pie (and sauce) to your to-cook list.
