Here's my post-grocery haul (from previous thread)....

I'll be making Loaded Breakfast Potatoes with Mushroom Gravy, from Vegan Yack Attack... with a few exceptions/substitutions, i.e. evoo instead of coconut oil, baby arugula AND spinach, Wondra flour instead of corn starch, & no liquid aminos.)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's Freesia's haul (and company)

Hey, Freesia! Whatcha gonna make??

 

[MadamSarcastra]

I'm gonna start on the mushroom gravy shortly, just in case it needs any tweaking tomorrow.... public radio has an hour of jazz at 2, then Science Friday at 3, Fresh Air at 4, All Things Considered at 5.... I won't lack for listening material. Tomorrow is a different matter entirely. LOL

 

[MadamSarcastra]

All set for makin' some groovy gravy....

(unlabeled are the mushrooms, onion, garlic, & unsweetened coconut/almond milk)

 

[MadamSarcastra]

Groovy gravy? Check.

Additional spices: Rosemary, thyme, dill, parsley, sage, & Mrs. Dash... and a bay leaf for overnight.

Well, that's done! Catch you crazy cook-festers here tomorrow! Woo-hoo!!

Wow, that looks awesome!

 

[MadamSarcastra]

Smelled amazing, too... and it's vegan! I'm just a strict vegetarian, but I figured I'd go total vegan for this recipe.... in the spirit of community & togetherness & blah, blah, blah.... not that I think it matters... I'm just happy to be simultaneously making nummy brunchy stuff with my global friends here. Very excited for tomorrow.... but it's later today for some! LOL
HAPPY COMMUNAL COOK-FEST!! Cook with love & think of the rest of us doing the same....

I'll be back in several hours, after I eat & sleep & stuff.... LOL

 

[Freesia]

I will be probably the last cook, will get up early tomorrow and start prep etc... that means I will start in 13 hours.

 

[MadamSarcastra]

@Freesia Enjoy! Can't wait to see paella pics! It's 2:45 AM here & I'm off to beddie-bye.

Can I come over ?

 

[Moll Flanders]

Yum. I'm just having a nice cup of Earl Grey tea after eating all of that.

The marinated mushrooms were gorgeous! I wish I had made more of them but I wasn't sure if I would like them because of the maple syrup.

The strawberry pizza was also lovely, it tasted a bit like cheesecake to me. I made two small ones instead of one large as I hadn't made it before and I wasn't sure if the base would burn if it was too thin.

 

[KLS52]

Well done, Moll! The strawberry pizza is especially appealing to me.

That looks beautiful. Well done Molls.

I was inspired to make a brunchy/desserty/breakfasty dish so here it is. Not my official entry, but a just in case I can't get back here to do the Thai Curry Vegetable Stew.

Whole wheat pancakes with bourbon barrel maple syrup and a dollop of coconut whipped cream, a sprinkling of glazed pecans with a cherry on top! It was outstandingly delicious!
