Well, we had something similar at a friends’ place some time ago and his version was so darn tasty that I just simply had to try and recreate them. Did I recreate them successfully you might ask? I didn’t, but what I did make was tangy, sweet and salty. Read past the break for the ingredients list and the simple directions.

We spent some time scouring through tastespotting a few weeks ago and compiled a list of recipes we wanted to try. This is the second in our list, and as a pumpkin dessert fan, this was a rather new and unique twist on what people usually simply toss into a pie. The cream cheese cloud topping added a freshness to the entire loaf.
Be sure to enjoy it with a nice warm cup of tea!

Well, it’s American thanksgiving weekend, and oddly enough, we put together quite the feast last night and invited some close friends of our to celebrate with us. This was round 1 of the food, and what a round it was. This has to be the most delectable soup I have ever had, and it’s simplicity certainly helps seal the deal.

vegan apple toasty
So, I’ve been on this vegan kick lately. (Really, since I bought the Babycakes cookbook.) When I’m baking now, my thinking process goes sometime like this: if the baked goods are vegan, I can eat more of it and not feel guilty. And, I like that. Just because I’m saying that I eat more of vegan baked goods, I don’t want you to conger up this image of me eating the entire loaf within two days. I live with my partner, which means I have to share my baked goods. Right away, I only get to eat half of the loaf and it lasts for a week. In all seriousness, this apple toasty loaf is a delicious breakfast idea. Enjoy!!

can you guess what that can is lurking in the background?
Melanie was busy making some super duper delicious chinese dumplings (recipe to follow shortly), and after having shredded half of the cabbage, realized she had far too much for her recipe. I decided to take the cabbage off her hands, and whipped together an impromptu bowl of carrot and cabbage slaw. The addition of chipotle peppers gave the finished product some lasting heat.

Ricotta Stuffed Chicken Breast
We had some leftover pesto and ricotta in the fridge from a recent recipe that didn’t make it to the blog, so I decided to butterfly some chicken breasts and stuff them full of delicious basil cheese. The directions are a cinch and baking it in the oven is mess free!

Well, I can finally say that I have found the perfect recipe for banana bread. We’ve never had any bread come out this moist and still retain its shape! Don’t let the fact it’s Vegan turn you off, it’s so delicious you’ll quickly forget all about that.
