Any weekend works for me. If I feel inspired at the time, I'll try something new. Otherwise, I have several soups I make on a regular basis and enjoy.

I'm not a cook. Can I buy the food instead?

You can always buy a bunch of canned or frozen veggies & just dump 'em all in a pot of broth.... LOLI'm not a cook. Can I buy the food instead?
Hell, the only things NOT canned or frozen in my crap will be garlic, onion, zucchini, spinach, & basil!
LMAODo you like pea soup? I know using dry split peas are a pain because you have to rinse & sort them & inspect for stones/pebbles.... but this recipe says you can use frozen peas! And it looks super easy!

If I get my act together this is my plan:
Vegan Buffalo Cauliflower Chowder with Herbed Crostini - Kitchen Treaty
And Artisan bread with homemade vegan butter instead of the crostini.

I doubt I will do any cooking this weekend, but I love soups and such. If you really like something, please post the link or the recipe!

I have been thinking a little about this. I know I will be cooking at some point in the next few days but not sure when..
things are a bit chaotic around here with builders, plumbers, neighbours, and others, randomly showing up on top of the usual busyness
so when I do cook it will definitely be a rush job but I will do my best to get photos both of the shopping and of the cooking.
Not entirely sure what I am making but I have a recipe for bean cassoulet and have intended to try it for years... so I might try and throw together a simplified version of it.

If you are thinking "what is a cassoulet" well here is an example though this isnt the recipe I am using...
Vegetarian Cassoulet Recipe
Usually it is an omni thing but there are plenty of veg versions around.

Yeah, it's like when I made that lentil "bolognese" a while back... you can veganize practically ANYTHING!

No effin' whey!
This weekend might be short notice for me, but late entries only prolong the celebration, right?
It was quite hard to find a recipe I haven't tried before! I think I will make one of these three.

I've never done it with red lentils and I love red. I always used regular brown. I will have to try red now!
I'm still considering what to make. I want to make something new.

I use brown in my Snobby Joes and red in my bolognaise. It ends up with a bit of a mushy texture as the red breaks down more than brown.. but I like it.
This is the recipe I use...
RED LENTIL BOLOGNESE
Except I dont know why they are saying marjoram, I use oregano.
OK, I found this, and it sounds really good. I'm going to use canned tomatoes, though.I'm still considering what to make. I want to make something new.
For a baked good, I am thinking of a bar cookie of some sort, something likely involving chocolate...or I could do scones. I will have to think about it.
