Easter Vegan Egg Time

So I've been gnawing on the Moo Free Honeycomb Easter Egg. It's at least 6 inches tall and hollow. The chocolate quality is great. I love Premier Chocolates but sometimes the chocolate bars can be a little waxy. I know Park+Vine. The vegan store where I work got a new shipment of easter stuff from them so I'll have to get their easter offering. I love the peanot m&m's though.

Vegan Chili and Corn Bread

I was flipping through my old Chickpea magazines and I decided to make chili and cornbread. Both turned out great.

In the chili I used Butler's soy curls but then it was like chick'n chili and I didn't like that but the seasoning was good and Bakersfield liked it.

The cornbread turned out a tad bit crispy on the outside so next time I will use liners.

Piping Gourmet Mint Whoopie Pie

This was delicious. Like an andes mint cake. I love how you can pull these out of the freezer and let them thaw out for a bit. A lot of times I just want cake and this is perfect to stash away.

Sticky Fingers in DC

An all vegan bakery in DC. Lucky me! So we had chocolate chip cookies and a devil's food cake. The cookies tasted like tollhouse. The cake was moist and a big portion. Bakersfield thought there was too much icing but he's always like that.

It's funny that vegan desserts also have to compete with the "other" desserts. My values are reflected in my food choices not my tastebuds leading my values or ignorance of animal abuse. Even if vehan desserts tasted like cardboard I'd gobble it down with a shit-eating grin.

Beyond Meat Southwestern Tenders

These were great. The crispy breading was spot on. They were kind of small and I thought I would eat the whole bag, but with a large helping of rice noodles and vegetables 4 tenders was perfect. The spice was minimal and I could have used more, but I will buy these again, definitely.

Mac and Broccoli with Kale

I really wanted Daiya Cheddar Mac one night and I also wanted to be kind of healthy so I added boiled broccoli and kale on the side. Daiya mac is my favorite.
