So it’s definitely November and I’m COMPLETELY in denial about it. There’s so much going on this month, like my sister-in-law’s bridal shower next week for which I volunteered/was asked to make a hundred cupcakes. Still haven’t chosen exactly what to make yet for that, thanks for asking. It’s going to be an interesting week. I’m probably going with the chocolate and vanilla cupcakes from the Bravetart cookbook namely because they are the best, but also because they each make a batch of about 40 cupcakes. I think then half will be chocolate frosted and the other half will have salted caramel buttercream. I’m also thinking of making a batch of the maple cupcakes that are in the blog archives because everyone loves maple and they are one of my favorite cupcakes of all time!
Anyway, enough about cupcakes!! Let’s talk real food and this week’s healthy vegetarian meal plan. Here’s what we’re cooking:
- cheesy vegan broccoli soup – basically drooling over this
- easy vegetable teriyaki stir fry – take-out at home, yaaasssss
- roasted sweet potato kale salad with avocado and jammy egg – so in love
- roasted vegetable harvest salad with sesame chili sauce – make a big batch and eat ALLLLL week
- easy parmesan pasta – total comfort food
Happy eating!
