vegrecipes [ krisann ]	8:37a	Vanilla soymilk in vanilla pudding? Have any of you ever made vanilla pudding with vanilla soymilk? I am making this eclair casserole thing today for our party tomorrow night and just realized that I forgot to get milk (which we never buy otherwise) but I have plenty vanilla Silk lite. Will it be too sweet or weird? (4 Comments |Comment on this)

vegrecipes [ larivee22 ]	12:33p	Mazurek Mazurek Adapted from Anna Thomas's The Vegetarian Epicure. 2 cups flour 1 cup sugar 1/4 tsp salt 1/2 cup butter 1 egg 1/4 tsp almond extract 1/4 tsps vanilla extract 1 cup milk or cream 1 cup currants 1 cup dates add cinnamon to your own taste Combine dry ingredients in bowl, then add the egg, butter, and cream. Add the vanilla and almond extracts. Fold the currants and dates into the batter. Bake at 350 for at least 40 minutes. I made this as cupcakes, as I'm travelling over the holidays and have had far better experiences traveling with muffins or cupcakes than I have had with cake, however, you're supposed to make this in a bundt pan. Glaze Mix confectioner's sugar together with warm water diluted orange juice. (Comment on this)

vegrecipes [ friedgrntomaino ]	3:07p	Stuffed butternut squash Hello all! I've always wanted to try stuffed squash but never have. Butternut squash has always been my favorite, so I'm wondering if any of you can provide some simple, not too fancy or expensive but yummy recipe ideas for dinner for my dad and me tonight? We're trimming the tree and I thought it would be nice to surprise him with a nice sit-down dinner which we haven't had together in probably a year. Thanks in advance! Also: More complicated recipes are also welcome if you think they are worth trying. I don't necessarily have to try them tonight! (5 Comments |Comment on this)

vegrecipes [ hopeleslove ]	1:00p	Mushroom halp! Hey all! I find myself in possession of nearly three pounds of mushrooms. I would hate for any of these to go to waste but I'm sort of stumped for ideas. I'll be making a nice mushroom soup, but that will only use up 2 cups. As an added dilemma, my sister HATES mushrooms. So, your challenge if you chose to accept it: What are some sneaky ways I can use mushrooms? A less challenging challenge: what are your favorite mushroom recipes? (24 Comments |Comment on this)

vegrecipes [ kiega ]	4:59p	Creamy Marsala Wine Sauce Recipe I'm trying to modify a wine sauce recipe (needs to be vegan) but am not sure the best way to go about it. Normally, I would reduce a bottle of marsala wine, then add 1 pint heavy whipping cream. That's it. It makes a very nice sweet sauce When I have attempted to make this with 2% milk or anything less fatty/caloric than heavy whipping cream, it would tend to curdle a bit so I'm a a little scared to use plain old soy milk. Does anyone have any ideas as far as using soy/rice milk / yogurt / flour..? / tofu / etc as the second ingredient? Any ideas on lowering the acidity of the wine before adding the second ingredient to reduce the chance of curdling if I do use soy/rice milk? I'm really craving it but I'm in the process of cutting dairy from my diet (if nothing works, I might settle for free-range, hormone-free, happier cream, but I really want to avoid that...)
