Pumpkin Patch Cupcakes
Took the recipe for vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting from the website that is linked through the picture.
I added green food colouring to the icing, and bought the candies from bulk barn.
Root Vegetable Stew
Makes 2 or 3 servings
Ingredients:
1 small rutabaga
1 small onion
3 carrots
2 large potatoes
1 cup of vegetable broth
1 cup of water
Paprika, pepper, salt, bay leaf
Chop all the veggies and then just put everything except the potatoes in the oven for at least an hour at 375 degrees. If you find is drying up just put more water or broth. Then put the potatoes in and cook for another hour or until everything is tender.
First off, I LOVE tacos. I used to have them once a week, but not so much anymore. Had them for dinner tonight and remembered how much I love them! Mmmmm
Makes 6 tacos, hard or soft (7inch ish)
Ingredients:
1/2 pack of Yves Veggie Ground Roung
1/4 cup of chopped onion
3/4 cup of chopped peppers
1/3 cup of salsa
Cheese, lettuce and spinach for filling taco, depends how much you like of each.
Tacos (6ish)
First I fry the veggie ground round for about 5 minutes with some onion and seasoning to add flavour. At the same time preheat the oven to 350 for the taco shells to go into.
Chop all the veggies and place the taco shells in the oven for about 8 minutes.
That’s it! Just fill up the taco however you like it, and don’t forget the salsa my favourite part!
So quick, and easy!
Stirfry
I know I do a lot of these, but when I’m all out of food this is what I make haha, cause I always seem to have tofu lying around and some form of vegetable.
Ingredients:
1/2 block of tofu, cut into chunks
3/4 cup of chopped peppers, any variety
1 cup of fresh spinach
1/4 cup of chopped green onion
1 tbs of vegetable oil
spices
Put tofu into oil and brown slightly, add vegetables and spices and cook until tofu is golden brown.
Makes around 2 servings, not a heavy meal more of a lunch.

ontheflipsideimalright asked: I love your blog! I've been a vegetarian myself for a little under a year so these recipes are really helpful. I'm writing an essay about blogs for my class and was wondering if I could use yours as source to show the variety in blogs on Tumblr.
Either way, thanks for making this wonderful blog!
For sure!
I’m glad you like it!
