Easter Dinner

Nothing like an awesome Vegetarian Dinner! It was really yummy! 
Here's the low down:

Chickpea Deviled Eggs

These were REALLY good! I left out two of the yokes, and added a little more chickpeas. I also replaced the Mayo with Veganase or Nayonnaise. And I topped them with Paprika! YUM!
Definitely something you could entertain with! (need to remember this!)

Pasta Primavera


8 oz. Quinoa Pasta or whatever pasta you desire

1) Cook Pasta.
2) Cook Onion and Garlic until soft.
3) Add broccoli and wine. Cover and simmer about 4 minutes. Add the rest of the veggies and tomatoes, and herbs. Cover and Cook until desired consistency. (I like mine crisp tender).
4) Stir cooked pasta into veggies, stir in 1/4 C chopped Parsley and Basil. Lots of Salt and Pepper. Top with Parmesan Cheese if desired.

Pecan Sweet Potatoes


3-4 Large Sweet Potatoes/Yams
The Juice of One Orange

Clean Potatoes. Poke with a fork and cook in microwave until fork inserts easily (about 5-8 minutes). Slice potatoes and put in blender with Juice, Ginger, Salt, and Maple syrup. Blend until all pureed. Put in 8 x 9 casserole dish. Spread with Pecans, 2 Tbl Sucunat or Brown sugar, 1 tsp Cinnamon and 1/2 tsp Nutmeg. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.

ENJOY!
