Some Random Goodies + Christmas 2019

Hi everyone, I’ve finally tried the vanilla bean dessert hummus with some pretzels, and it is so good! 

I’ve also been enjoying this chocolate that Zach got for me… 

And I tried this new-to-me vegan mac; I didn’t care for the pasta on its own, but once combined with the sauce, it was delicious! 

served with onion potatoes

Two Christmas dinners again this year – we went to my parents’ first…

chicken noodle soup

Field Roast celebration roast and agave-glazed carrots by me, green beans and roasted potatoes by my mom, and corn and mac by my sister

And then we went to Zach’s family and got to meet their foster pup Tatiana; she’s such a cutie! 

pickles, salad, cornbread, ratatouille, chicken and rice, shepherd’s pie

raspberry chocolate cake for dessert

Here’s Daisy… 

Peace. :)

Lunch at Franconia Heritage Restaurant

Hi everyone, no new recipe again, but I do have an awesome lunch to share! My mom, aunt, and I took my sister to Franconia Heritage Restaurant for her birthday this week. They have a separate vegan menu, so we ordered lots of good food and were pleasantly surprised to find that the portions have increased since a previous visit in 2018. They had two vegan soups, so I ordered the creamy broccoli and carrot soup while my sister ordered the vegetable chowder. The soup arrived in an overflowing bowl, and it was incredibly delicious! 

My sister got the vegan chicken Parmesan (a breaded cutlet this time instead of Beyond Chicken strips) with fries, and I got the vegan tortellini, which was another gigantic serving, and a much better pasta-to-sauce ratio than it had been before… 

I was only able to put a small dent into that after finishing the soup (and the fries, which were an unexpected side), so I had some really nice leftovers for lunch this week! 

Here’s everything all together… 

And here’s a sleepy Cringer… 

Peace. :)
