Hi! Happy weekend!
We have a packed day today, mostly because we’ll be traveling to NJ to go to my sister-in-law’s bridal shower. Not to brag, but I baked ONE HUNDRED cupcakes for it last night and my back may never be the same. Also, I suspect I’ll be finding sprinkles on my floor for at least a decade. In case you’re wondering, I made the white cake and Devil’s food cake topped with the marshmallow buttercream (both vanilla and chocolate variations) from the Bravetart cookbook, as well as the maple cupcakes with maple cream cheese frosting from my blog.
After seeing how much butter went into the buttercream (errr TEN STICKS), I need a hit of some health food and am SO EXCITED for this week’s meal plan!! Here’s what we’re cooking:
- balsamic glazed sheet pan tempeh – obsessed with sheet pan meals!
- VEGAN cream of broccoli soup – totally slurpable
- roasted winter vegetable quinoa salad with cider vinaigrette – eat the rainbow
- curried chickpea stew with rice pilaf – so cozy
- gnocchi lasagna bake – yessssssss
Happy eating!
