I've got 3 more Vegan with a Vengeance recipes for you, one of which is my new favorite VwaV recipe. I know! The Pad Thai has dropped to second place already.
______________________________
Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Toastaed Garlic (sides, pg 125)
Isa says: "Believe me when I tell you these are amazing. No, seriously. Roasting the brussel sprouts give them a popcorn-y flavor."
Sara says: "Pretty good, but I still like steamed sprouts better."
I like sprouts a lot, and this is the first time I've had them any other way than steamed. I liked these, I liked the garlic with them, but I'm sticking with steamed. Sorry.
What I did differently: Nothing.
What I'll do differently next time: Nothing. Maybe more garlic.
______________________________
Herb Roasted Potatos (brunch, pg 25)
Isa says: "You can't have brunch without potatos."
Sara says: "You're damn right, Isa."
These were really great. They got a nice brownness and crispness which I loved. My taters cooked much faster than the recipe, at the point where the potatos are to be tossed with the herbs and cooked another 20 minutes, mine were done.
What I did differently: omitted the thyme.
What I'll do differently next time: keep omitting the thyme.
______________________________
Pumpkin Waffles (brunch, pg 40)
Isa says: "...the best vegan waffles you've ever tasted."
Sara says: "These are NOT the best vegan waffles I've ever tasted. These are THE BEST WAFFLES I've ever tasted!"
I want you to stop what you're doing, click on this link to the recipe and go in the kitchen and make these suckers. These are the best, the best waffles I've ever had in my life. The pumpkin is not an overpowering flavor in the waffles, but it's there in the background, holding hands with the ginger, cloves and nutmeg. Seriously, these are super fantastic.
What I did differently: Made a half batch.
What I'll do differently next time: Make a full batch.
I know, I promised you Tempeh 2 weeks ago. It's coming next week, promise!
