Spiced chickpea stew

This spiced chickpea stew was good, even though R and I were the only ones who ate it.

Magic cookie bars

I had some sweetened condensed milk leftover from ice cream making, so I decided to use it up making these Magic Cookie Bars. I don’t think it turned out because the milk was quite thick. I think it turned into dulce de leche in the can. Don’t tell E it was so old... haha. I’ll find a way to eat it though.

White bean dip

I made this white bean dip for work snacks. It was kind of bland so I won’t try it again.

Vegetarian pot pie

I think I was using up some leftovers from thanksgiving so I threw them together into this vegetarian pot pie. It was easy enough and though they all complained, everyone in the family liked it!

Thanksgiving 2019

I made:
Stuffing
Cranberry sauce 
Mashed potatoes and gravy
Served with a vegan roast.
The stuffing was good, but I reduced the butter considerably especially since I was using stale croissants and didn’t have some of the vegetables. It still turned out pretty good.
I didn’t care for the gravy, it was too thick. I’ll go back to my trusted mushroom gravy recipe.
Overall, a great dinner, but I was cooking all day!

Chocolate Ice cream

This chocolate ice cream was pretty good, but too cocoa-y for E. I’ll keep looking for another chocolate ice cream recipe...

Apple muffins

I had some apples to use so I found this recipe for apple muffins. The kids really liked it so I will probably make these again.

GF Pumpkin and Banana bread

I made some banana bread for a GF colleague at work.
I found this recipe to try out. The first time I tried I used bananas. I made it per the recipe fairy closely and added vanilla, cinnamon, and probably almond butter, but it was a while ago so I can’t recall now.

The second time I made pumpkin bars. I think I used at least one cup of puréed pumpkin with cinnamon and vanilla. I also topped it with some store-bought cream cheese frosting.

Both times it went over well and it was fairly easy to make.
