Happy Halloween

Green Bread & Pumpkin Pasta

 

Almost every Halloween we start the day with Pumpkin Pancakes and then have Pumpkin and Sage Pasta with Green Slime Bread.  I have had to come up with vegan versions of these recipes and they turned out just as delicious.  The slime for the bread is a bag of organic spinach blended up with about a 1/2 cup of Earth Balance.  Spread it on a loaf of bread and bake it at 375 until it is bubbly, about 10-15 minutes.  Just make sure you check your teeth after eating it so you don’t have a green slime smile.  I hope that you all have a happy and healthy Halloween.

 

Grandma’s Sugar Cookies

Grandma's Sugar Cookies

 

 

This has been a crazy week of packing up my Mom and trying to see all my friends and family.  Today the kids and I took a break and made some sugar cookies for Halloween.  I used a recipe given to me by my husband’s Grandma, of course I had to make a few changes to make the cookies vegan.  The kids get very few treats like this, so they were very excited and had a great time helping.  I think they had more frosting on them than got on the cookies.
