The Brownest Thanksgiving Ever or Uncle Epidiah's Old Fashioned Stuffins

I generally celebrate Thanksgiving by myself and this year I wanted a plate of brown carbs. Success! Mac and cheese with Uncle Epidiah's Old Fashioned Stuffins. Stuffing stuffed with the punk rock chickpea gravy from Vegan with a Vengeance and baked in muffin tins.

The Stuffin.
The Stuffin opened. I wanted a thicker gravy so it wouldn't run all over the place. Frankly, it's a bit hard to see in the pile of brown that is my plate, but it is there and is most delightful.

Mr. Bran Bakes with Bisquick: Waffles

This is our final week with breakfast from Mr. Bran! This week he wanted to go with something classic and simple. Waffles:

2 c Bisquick
1 1/3 c soymilk
2 T oil
1/4 c. soy yogurt

Mix all together and cook in a waffle maker. Couldn't be easier.

The verdict: pretty dang good. Again, I served with apricot ginger preserves which I think improves the taste of most things.

Mofo Monday: Food I Eat


Another old favorite is the chickpea spinach curry from Vegan With a Vengeance. This bowl is looking a bit ghostly but that's because I was in a hurry to take the picture so I could eat. Thus there is still steam streaming off the curry. Always a good choice.

Vegan Product Sunday: Soapwalla Kitchen

I thought I would take my mofo Sundays to post about some small businesses that are both vegan and run by vegans. Panda With Cookie is never paid for endorsements because we like to keep it classy.

Today's featured shop is Soapwalla Kitchen, which specializes in vegan and natural bath and beauty products. I am currently using the cardamom and ginger bar soap shown here, but all her scents are fabulous.

I am also hooked on Soapwalla's natural deodorant cream. I've been using it for roughly a year and love it. And I know some of y'all have been looking for the panda seal of approval before buying deodorant. This is your time!
