They Might Be Vegans

If you read my other blog, you know that last week was a nightmare of dueling web servers, infidels and more. After everything was finally working late Friday, I needed a break from blogging. Now, we’re back in action and trying to figure out what vegans eat for their Easter feast!

We have already eschewed the boiled and dyed real eggs and instead put stickers on plastic ones. I had vegan cookies and vegan chocolate in the boys’ baskets, but now I’m wondering what to cook for our feast. I’ve got a stocked pantry and fridge, but no motivation.

This site has some yummy looking recipes, but I don’t have nutritional yeast flakes, nor do I have the energy for these ambitious treats. I’m definitely going to make this mushroom lasagna (adapting to be vegan), but it will have to be later this week since the prep time is long (no-boil noodles need to sit).

This pasta will probably be on the agenda for the week, and this stuffed french toast recipe looks divine (though we’d use something instead of the sugar–what does beet sugar do to recipes in terms of taste? is there a weird flavor?). I’m drooling over these potato pancakes, and I can’t wait to try this peanut butter coffee cake. Note to self: get a food processor and a mixer.

For now, I think we’ll whip out the green salad and veggie burgers, but I can’t wait to try all these new things. Happy vegan Easter to you!
