Pumpkin Everything!

So, you know how pumpkin-everything has become a "thing" now? Well, I had a pumpkin to make some recipes and I ended up using canned pumpkin instead... So what am I doing with all this pumpkin? Look down below for some ideas!

1. Pumpkin seeds!
You can put anything you want on pumpkin seeds, bake them in the oven, and they will taste amazing!

2. Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies

Recipe can be found at Two Peas and Their Pod

3. Pumpkin pasta

Recipe can be found at Vegan Richa

4. Pumpkin chili ramen

Literally chili ramen with huge chunks of pumpkin (seasoned with garlic powder and Cavender's Greek seasoning )

5. Pumpkin mexicano wrap

Pumpkin, Amy's Kitchen Sonoma veggie burger, olives, and salsa verde

7. Pumpkin peanut tomato stew

(See previous post for recipe)
The first picture is the stew by itself. The second is served on rice cakes!

I hope you have enjoyed this post about everything pumpkin! I'll be updating it as the fall continues and I figure out other things I can do with pumpkin.

Tempeh Protein Noodles

I have been making large batches of food and eating them throughout the week to cut down on my time spent cooking on a daily basis. This is something I made the other day and love! Ingredients 1 package Edamame mung bean noodles 1 package black bean noodles 1 package Tempeh 1/3 cup textured vegetable protein 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter 2 tbsp Sesame seeds 2 tbsp kimchi 1 tbsp Chili oil 3 tbsp soy sauce 3 tbsp Bragg's liquid aminos 1.5 tbsp Sriracha Directions • Cook noodles according to package directions and drain. • in the same pot, mix the noodles with the other ingredients (it works best if you add the powdered peanut butter and tvp first so they are easier to mix once you add the liquids. • Serve with extra sriracha for a spicier dish, or add a fruit salad for some sweetness to contrast with the spicy saltiness. Makes 8 servings at about 310 calories

Creamy Lemon Garlic Pasta

Well, I'm back with another recipe, this one full of garlic! Ingredients: •Cooked pasta (enough for about 4-6 people. I used mafaldine) •Baby Spinach (I used about 2 ounces, but 4-6 oz would be better) •10 cloves of garlic, chopped •13.6 oz can of unsweetened coconut milk •2 tbsp olive oil •3-4 tbsp fresh oregano •1/2 tbsp dried basil •pinch of salt •lemon juice to taste (I used about 1 tsp fresh) •garlic powder Directions: 1. Cook pasta and set aside 2. In a pot saute garlic 3. Add coconut milk and stir until fully incorporated 4. Add in oregano, basil, and spinach. Simmer until spinach is cooked 5. Add rest of the sauce ingredients 6. Remove from heat. Add pasta. Serve with your favorite vegan meat substitute. (I used seitan chorizo, but gardein meatless meatballs, Boca crumble, beyond sausage, or TVP would all be good)

Fellowship Of The Ring Eat-athon

Fellowship Of The Ring Eat-athon, Part One! (We are pacing ourselves with small portions... It's the reason for the half apples or cupcakes!) We begin with a hobbit chomping into a cake! We started by eating half of a vanilla cranberry cupcake! And there's a number of times tea is made in the Hobbiton, so go ahead and make a whole pot (we drank this lovely Earl Grey blend from @adagioteas fandom blends) Bilbo Baggins turns 111! So we eat the other half of the cupcake! Merry eats an apple to look nonchalant while stealing fireworks with Pippin. After seeing some elves in the forest, Sam can't sleep on the hard ground and eats some bread in the middle of the night... My kind of hobbit! Then, as we make it to Bree, we see Peter Jackson take a huge bite out of a carrot... We had baby carrots😂 Pippin's infamous Second Breakfast scene gives us another opportunity to eat an apple! ...
