Solstice Dinner Party

Here is the spread from my winter solstice dinner party the other day. It was a potluck. I made the cabbage rolls, and slow-cooker cranberry-walnut stuffing, and my friends brought: roasted veggies, mashed sweet potato, a salad with orange-ginger dressing, chili, and a spagetti squash stuffed with purple potatoes and other vegetables! Oh, and lots of dessert, which I forgot to take a photo of..


and from the other side..

Sweet and Sour Neatmalls on Mashed Potatoes

Comfort food out of my comfort zone! I'd never tried this recipe, or anything similar. I'm so glad I did try it!
This is an edited version (as usual) of the "Sweet and Sour 'Neat' Balls" in The Everyday Vegan. I didn't use roasted garlic or carrot, and I added a handfull of hulled hemp seeds. I also used a bottled sauce.

"Peanut Butter in my Chocolate" Cookies

This is kind of a crappy photo, but this is a GREAT recipe from Eat Drink and be Vegan by Dreena Burton!
