Cheryl and Dee were able to have fun together in New Hampshire recently. Cheryl took us to lunch at a vegan bistro near her work at the state capitol in Concord. We split the dishes listed in tan, beginning with the soup and salad. They were wonderful. I tried to recreate the Baked Fall Vegetable Medley and have a couple notes on that below.
Baked Fall Vegetable Medley
I decided to roast all the veggies listed in the fall medley instead of steaming. While they were cooking, I made a creamy sauce with almond/coconut milk, then added a small piece of leftover pork loin as we aren't vegan. I also cooked quinoa in chicken broth. The quinoa went on the bottom, with the sauce over it; the roasted veggies went on top. Since all the parts were cooked, I put it in the fridge for dinner the following day, as we were coming home about dinner time. We just microwaved our portions individually. I thought it was good, and Scott had seconds, and we have leftovers for another meal.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
