Creamy Potato Peanut Stew with Soy Curls and chickpeas. I know it's 150 degrees outside and not exactly stew weather, but serving it with a cold glass of Brown Sugar Limeaid helped with the heat. That, and eating it inside our nice, climate controlled house. (bleh... move along, summer)
A more season-appropriate dish from Viva! is this cold Quinoa Salad with kalamata olives, red onions, spinach, corn, tomatoes, lime juice, and some seasoning. The lime juice makes the flavors extra sparkly.
Potato Pancakes with Peanut Sauce and a side of kale. Dios mio.
Despite out love for Latin food, our fall-back is almost always Italian inspired. Here are a few shots of a recent calzone, made with a whole wheat crust. I used a basic pizza crust recipe, this time from the Bob's Red Mill Baking Book I borrowed from the library. The 'zone is stuffed with tomato sauce, Daiya vegan cheese, kalamata olives, onions, and vegan Smart Bacon. So good.
And huge.
You know what's good to have after consuming a five pound calzone? A couple of vegan maple cream cheese cinnamon rolls!

Wow! This all look great! I would eat that stew in 200 degree weather! :) Looks great. I will have to check out Viva!
I recently won the Viva Vegan and just made the Vanilla Coconut Flan last night! It's so good!!!!
Those potato pancakes look so appetizing and everything else you made.
Goodness gracious, that all looks delicious!! The pic of those potato pancakes with peanut sauce made me hungry.

Oh man, that 'zone is rockin'! And all those latin eats look super good too--I could go for that stew any day, hot or cold! (also, the word verification is "holla" which I figured was super appropriate for an Atlanta blog, hehe)
Haha, "Holla!"
Yummmm! I'm loving the Viva Vegan cookbook too - I haven't made the recipes you have here yet, but your pics are making me drool and run to crack that book open again!
