Just a little porn I forgot about.

11 August 2007

Most of this is stuff I’ve been to lazy to post. I didn’t make any of these recipes up.

Did I tell you my biggest vegan chef crush, Lolo, is coming out with a cookbook? It’s going to be published the guys over at Herbivore. She has a slew of kids from the ppk forum testing for her. I’ve done a few recipes, but I’ve been lazy for the most part. This is her Crispy Sweet N Sour Tofu. I’ll let you know when the book comes out. It’s going to be killer.

So for my friend’s birthday/last day in town, I felt inspired to stay up all night so she could have the one thing she missed since becoming vegan — a good, homemade cinnamon roll. And thanks to rachaelrayforever’s cinnamon roll recipe, Brit got her cinnamon rolls. Warning: the dough for these rises twice, so you definitely have to have time to dedicate to these guys. But man oh man — they’re totally worth it. There was also a cream cheese icing involved, but they didn’t last long enough to get photos.

More porn after the jump.

Congratulations, Brittany!

My friend (from the Pumpernickel’s post) just graduated college! Here’s the carrot cake with (tofutti better than) cream cheese icing I made her! I used the Vegan With A Vengeance carrot cake (replaced macadamia’s with walnuts, omitted coconut) recipe and just experimented with the icing. It was great (even though her mom bought 3 cakes from Sticky Fingers bakery.)

By the way, I used some kind of all-natural food coloring for the “green” icing, but it looks terrible, I know. Oh well.
