Beet Grillin'

Summer is officially here and I am excited that I grilled our first batch of beet's last night. Never grilled beets before but they are damn tasty. Beets were fresh from our CSA (community supported agriculture) with farmer Rob at Montalbano Farms.

Vegan Donuts Rule!

So we finally made our first batch of donuts this morning. We had to wait for the mini donut pan to arrive from amazon. Luckily it didn't take 4 to 6 weeks like they claimed it would when we ordered them. We used the recipe from vegan yum yum. We used 1/4 cup applesauce and 1 teaspoon baking powder as our egg replacer. We did not grease the donut pan and they popped right out. No sticking. The donuts turned out quite delicious. We topped them three different ways:

1. Chocolate covered. We used a 62% Scharffen Berger semisweet bar
2. Powdered sugar
3. Glazed with sprinkles. Powdered sugar, soymilk glaze with sprinkles (again from vegan yum yum)

My favorite was the chocolate, but Meg preferred plain with just powdered sugar.
