Two More Recipes



Still trying out recipes from my new cookbook (Idiot's Guide to Vegan Cooking) I baked some blueberry corn muffins. These were made with spelt flour and cornmeal, and were actually supposed to have mixed berries, but I used all blueberries. I made the muffin batter up the night before, so all I had to do in the morning was bake them! They were good, although the kids didn't like them too much. I think because they don't like blueberries cooked.


Another great recipe was for the Spinach-Walnut Pesto. This was so good!! I made penne pasta and also cut green beans in the same shape as the penne, and I added them to the cooking pasta in the last few minutes. This was my attempt to hide the green beans, I figured with the green pesto sauce the kids would not notice. They noticed, but the pesto was so good they ate them anyway (green beans are not a favorite of my kids, for some reason). This dinner was so quick and delicious, I am actually making it again tonight! (Also, sorry for the "fuzzy" photo, a storm had just finished so my camera lens kept getting steamy!)
