I have been taking a break from Vegan Ventures for a long long time and I am sorry but I needed to neglect my food blog because I just had too much work. I am all caught up for now (as best as I can be at least) so I can finally add my pictures. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, whether you had tofurky, Chinese food, or PB&J for your feast. My grandma brought the turkey (no comment) and I was in charge of making all the sides. I made pumpkin crusted tofu from VWaV for my main food, mashed sweet potatoes, corn bread, sugar snap peas, creamed spinach, and a pumpkin pie. No one in my family knew the sides were vegan and my grandparents even ate the tofu, and liked it. All in all it was a very successful first vegan Thanksgiving.
Yesterday was my birthday and I was going to make brownies but, again, I was too busy writing a huge paper for bio. My mom made vegan chocolate chip cookies from this allergen free mix (ie. no wheat, eggs, dairy, soy, peanuts...). I am not allergic to anything but at least they were vegan and very tasty. I am going to try to do some baking over Christmas break.

Kate, that all looks and sounds delicious! I am interested in the pumpkin seed-crusted tofu--it looks amazing. I have never tried it, but I guess I need to now!
Happy birthday! That's so funny that your mom used an allergen-free mix to make your cookies! It was definitely thoughtful though.
I know what you mean about school. The semester is nearly over though, right? At least mine is! I can't wait! Hang in there...
I want to make another pie already!
Happy belated Birthday! I hope it was a happy day.
Your sides look great - it's it funny that as long as people don't know the food is vegan, they eat it and enjoy it?
so yummy!
Welcome back! And happy birthday! Your dishes all look wonderful.
I really did have pb sandwiches on Thanksgiving!
