@PTree15 I would be worried about the chocolate sticking to the liner if it's just regular liner. That said, over the weekend, somebody on the What Fat Vegans Eat group of FB posted that he did his with regular liners and oiled them a bit. They weren't pretty but he said they tasted great.

Lol, thanks for the tip! I will pick up the parchment kind. I'm so making these. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe. :)
 
@PTree15 You're welcome! I am so tickled by the response to that recipe. I guess it has that nostalgic factor. I thought creme eggs were the most clever easter thing ever. lol

I used to love the Cadbury ones years ago, so this was a great idea on your part. I'm eager to try them. I think they would make a great dessert for dinner guests as well. Just the right amount.

In tiny amounts for me! Even the original was too sweet for me. I used to keep them in the freezer to I could eat it bit by bit.

I did the same! I could eat only half at a time.
 
Yesterday:

B- oatmeal w/cranberries

L- past at w/a creamy mushroom sauce (leftovers from the night before)

S- a pear

D- rice topped w/ fried onions and peppers, kidney beans, roasted potatoes, roasted carrots & BBQ cauliflower
 
I made lasagna last night with Tofutti's vegan ricotta. It's not wonderful and I doubt I'll buy it again.
 
Breakfast: Peanut butter on toast and a cup of coffee with soya milk.

Lunch: Lemon & coriander houmous, :lick: green salad and toasted pitta bread.

Snack: Two kiwi fruit and a packet of ready salted crisps.

Dinner: I'm drinking cider and I have some leftover Chana Masala and mango chutney in the fridge that I'm going to have with brown basmati rice.

I really went overboard when I was traveling last week and felt like a lead weight. Spent this week eating so well. Feeling really great.

Brekkie: Green drink with kale, celery, apple & coriander leaves (felt soooooo healthy!)
Lunch: Salad with avocado & this delicious pumpkin seed & ginger pate
Dinner: Wild garden burgers (home made with a huge pile of fresh nettles, sweet potato, gram flour & nutmeg) - really delish.... and another big dense salad.

Few snacky things inbetween and some millet flake (breakfast cereal) this evening.

I would have to agree with you. I was very disappointed in it. I will definitely stick with making my own tofu ricotta.
 
Breakfast: Apple pie oatmeal :D Oats, almonds, unsweetened apple sauce, chopped apple, hemp seeds, chia seeds, cinnamon, ground ginger, almond milk, unsweetened shredded coconut, vanilla extract, and a tiny drizzle of pure maple syrup. Heaven in a bowl :)

Lunch: Kale salad (mix of kale, brussels sprouts, red cabbage etc) with pecans, a chopped pear, half an avocado, mushrooms and balsamic vinaigrette. One of the best salads I ever had! :D

Snacks: Frozen fruit, baby carrots, and snap peas.
 
So far today, we've only managed breakfast! And it's 4 in the afternoon!

It was a chickpea quiche with spinach, red peppers, nooch, and tomatoes. I <3 quiche.
Later we're planning to have tacos! Just Yves ground round, tomatoes, lettuce, onions and some Daiya cheddar :-)
I believe we're also going to have Shamrock Shakes too. I just posted on my blog: http://www.marystestkitchen.com/vegan-shamrock-shake-avocado-almond-milk-mint/
But it's really just avocado + vanilla almond milk mint extract +sweetener +time in freezer + more almond milk + blending + straw :-)

I made these (luckily since we burned our mouths on some vindaloo that was a little too spicy lol) and the shakes are great! :)

Yesterday, I started the day eating more quiche from the day before. Two pieces :-)
Had a long day of work helping my friend who is starting a nutrition coaching business so it was really fun but I was exhausted afterwards. So dinner was a grilled cheese sandwich with minced jalapenos and onion. And ketchup. And sriracha :-)
