I know it has been a long time since my last post. While work was busy the silence was mainly because I wasn’t feeling inspired and that translated to my cooking. I had a lot of blah sort of meals but fear not, I found my inspiration just in time for Virtual Vegan Potluck. I actually found this recipe in my photo archives. This is another one of my quick and easy dishes. Click here for the recipe.Ingredients
