Happy sunny sunday!

Hello! This weekend has been awesome! Good music, movies, food, sunshine, and relaxing! I'm in denial that monday is tomorrow, but it should be a sunny week also. I have good things coming up in May and I kind of just want April to get lost.

I made Bittersweet's Meyer Lemon Bundt Cake this past week, mostly because I've never had a meyer lemon before, was really craving a lemony cake, and I wanted to make something in my new bundt pan. I've had this recipe starred in my Google Reader for awhile now, and it fit the criteria perfect! Cake came out perfectly, and I hesitated before making the frosting, as it looked a little thick and not as citrusy as what I was craving, but I went ahead and made it anyways. This cake definitely benefits from sitting overnight, as it tasted waaaaay better the next day. Meyer lemons are weird! It's like if an orange and a lemon got together and made baby lemon-oranges. Yum!


Sweet potato fries! Tempeh sammich in the background. I steamed some tempeh and then mixed it with some veganaise, sriracha, and salt/pepper.


Used the leftover tempeh and sweet potato fries from my sammich and made sushi the next day! also a pretty radish, carrot, and chive roll.


I had little collard leaves and a leftover meyer lemon so I made some 'lil collard wraps. I blended some cashews with the meyer lemon juice, a bit of olive oil, salt/pepper to make a spread and put some carrot sticks and chives on it. That spread rocked! If you can't find meyer lemons, just try an orange and a lemon. Seriously, yum! It got a little tangy on the tongue after eating six of those mini wraps though.



Giiiiant CSA pickup saturday morning. So many greens! Here is everything drying on my counter. I'm super-excited for all the Arugula I got. It's my fave!



Whole-wheat Foccacia tonight, from The Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen tonight. It called for white flour, but I'm trying to be a good little whole grainer lately, so I subbed all wheat flour and it came out yummy! Thyme, salt, pepper, and olive oil on top. That book is pretty good. I haven't made too many things from it yet, but there are a lot I want to make! I grilled some portobella mushrooms on the grill pan and made some sammiches. Nik and I picked up a whole bunch of nuts and dried fruits in anticipation of all the salads we will eat this week (all those greens!), so I made a yummy side salad with dried cranberries and sunflower seeds.
