The fudge icing makes them...they are pretty bland really without icing! They need more chocolate other than cocoa powder I think!! But maybe I just like things chocolaty

[pusskins]

I third Assaye. They look amazing, xwitchymagicx

[escarmalanes]

[xwitchymagicx]

I was incredibly bored last night and made the biggest chocolate cake! It's literally 30-40cm tall! It might look like a mess but it's yummy!

Btw this cake looks like my sort of cake!!

What are those things in the cups escarmalanes. Am I the only one who is always more interested in dessert than anything else?!?! lol

Mmm marshmallows...in a way, I'm glad they are too expensive, it means I appreciate them more. lol

"Spaghetti Bolegnese" - with brown rice pasta...this is the recipe I always turn too as it is super easy to make!

^ what's in the quesadillas? Is there a cheese substitute? Quesadillas used to be my go to meal. Haven't had one in over 3 years.

its Houmous and Salsa, although I have made them with Tofutti cream cheese, salsa and soya chicken and they were fantastic.

[DiaShel]

^ Oh that's brilliant!! Thanks, I can go back to my addiction now.

[hbunting86]

Gah why can't I find anywhere to eat/shop vegan in NZ

[DiaShel]

^ where are you in NZ? I might be able to help.

[pusskins]

Just made a load of Choc Peanut cupcakes:

[hbunting86]

I'm in Auckland... Albany on the North Shore Thanks!

[DiaShel]

^ check out happycow.com. There are tons of places in Auckland. Golden Age is my favorite. There was a natural food shop that I really liked a lot. I wish we had stuff like that in Nelson. Not a single even vegetarian restaurant.

[DiaShel]

Oh, and if you join the NZ vegetarian society and get the newsletter you'll get information about happenings in the area. Good luck

xwitchymagicx- those cinnamon buns look so good! I would say they are plenty photogenic!
Firestorm- that paella looks delicious!

[Blueberries]

xwitchymagicx, those buns look really good, you can see how moist and delicious they are! Was it easy to make them g-f?
Firestorm, that 'egg and cheese' sandwich looks really nice! It reminds me of the cheese, onion and egg-mayonaise rolls I used to buy in my vegetarian days.

[hbunting86]

thanks for the advice DiaShel - I'll have a look this evening! Great photos everyone... I could eat everything posted on here!

[Firestorm]

Pickles? Where? That looks really good. Are the Jimmy Con Carne crisps any good?

[Firestorm]

The picked onions and gherkin are next to the salad. the Jimmy Con Carne crisps are O.K, they're better than the Frank Roast Dinner ones (they're the only 2 that are vegan), but I was just using them up.
I bought a 35 gram bag, liked them so bought a 6 pack, but by the time I got to the last pack I was getting a bit bored with them.
I'll be going back to my old staple - 1 pack of Salt and Vinegar Crisps, 1 Small pack peanuts, mixed and crunched up together - heaven!

[Risker]

I knew what you were referring to really

[Firestorm]

Sorry my sense of houmour has evaporated lately!!!

[Gwydion]

1 pack of Salt and Vinegar Crisps

Just to check, the above not being Walkers?

[RubyDuby]

Vegan "Fish Filet" (panko breaded tofu)




Served with lemon, Tartar Sauce and steamed cauliflower (covered in Buffalo Sauce)

[Firestorm]

Just to check, the above not being Walkers?

No not Walkers, I dont like milk in my crisps. I like to use Frisps, Golden Wonder, Hula Hoops, Squares, McCoys, Seabrook, Kettle

[Gwydion]

Haha, sorry. Just thought you'd prefer to know if that was the case.

[Firestorm]

Haha, sorry. Just thought you'd prefer to know if that was the case.

Thanks. I would have wanted to know, it was a sad day when they started adding milk to them, its almost up there with the fall of green & blacks.

[RubyDuby]

[pusskins]

Mmmmm - yes, the Rolos are lovely!

[Firestorm]

Dinner last night in work - pasta, potato, Lincolnshire style mini sausage and a Biona lucky star. After finishing this I also had a pack of peanuts poured into a pack of salt and vinegar crisps and
a grown up milk shake (soya milk and Kahlua mocha) which aren't pictured:

[Firestorm]

Breakfast in work Tuesday - Oaty Yogurty thing:


Lunch Yesterday - Chikin, Sheese and Coleslaw Barm (looks awful but tastes divine):


Dinner tonight - Thrice cooked potatoes, Sausages, Gravy and Veg:

[Gwydion]

Like your style Firestorm!

[emmapresley]

Rocky road, made from the marshmallows the lovely emmapresley sent me!

cool!!

[Risker]

Steamed broccoli, nut roast, cranberry jelly, mustard, horseradish, mint sauce, peas, sweet & sour red cabbage, roasted red onion, roast carrots, roast potatoes, roast sweet potatoes, roast jerusalem artichoke, roast garlic. I did add gravy as well but it made the picture look a bit unpleasant.

Unfortunately, just after serving I realised that it wasn't Sunday but was in fact Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday so it was disposed of rather quickly.

[Firestorm]

This food doesn't look great, but tasted it.

Yesterdays Dinner - Barbeque, Sausage and Pineapple Pizza:


Lunch Today - Baked bean quesedilla:


Dinner Tonight - "Chicken and Chorizo" Cannelloni, in the dish, then plated:

[RubyDuby]

Cannelloni looks great! Which cheese do you use?

[Firestorm]

Cannelloni looks great! Which cheese do you use?

I used a slice of Tofutti Cheddar mixed into some warm soya milk with some cornflour to thicken it.
It was a bit runny today cos I used too much milk, but its usually better than this.

It does taste great cold as well, I just grabbed the leftovers out the fridge and finished them with a cup of hot chocolate

[pusskins]

Dinner last night - homemade spring rolls, baked tamari tofu, noodles and sweet and sour stir fry veg:


And then I made some shortbread:

[xwitchymagicx]

xwitchymagicx, those buns look really good, you can see how moist and delicious they are! Was it easy to make them g-f?.

Actually, it was not too bad, I find a gluten free recipe online that contained eggs but I just removed the eggs and they were great! I just had to turn our oven down as it gets too hot...as the second time I substituted the egg and cooked on the temperature they suggested and they weren't as good as they got to dry as I wanted to see if it made any difference...so I suppose you have to know your oven to get them the right texture!

Here is the recipe on another forum: http://forums.glutenfree.com/viewtopic.php?t=4537

xwitchymagicx- those cinnamon buns look so good! I would say they are plenty photogenic!

Thanks!
