I'm pretty sure I'm going to dig into the lemon meringue pie I made. I was going to bring it to Easter dinner but it's not pretty enough and my daughter's in-laws are not receptive of any of my vegan dishes. So I really need to taste it. If I like it, I'll bring some of it for my dessert and for anyone who might want to taste it. I'm bringing my own dinner, anyway. So here goes...going to go make the coffee and eat some pie...woo hoo!

I was invited for Easter lunch and had some courgettes with onions served with basmati brown rice. Ice cream and strawberries for lunch.
 
A grated carrot, chicory salad with evo dressing, nooch and fake bacon bits.

A strawberry, spinach soya protein smoothie made with Alpro oat milk.
 
Cooked lentils, some 50% whole-wheat bread (or maybe less... I couldn't tell from the label, but there was both whole and refined grain in it), a little canola oil drizzled on the toast, and steamed broccoli rabe.

Edited to add: I ate the last of my home-made whole wheat bread today.:( I wonder if whole wheat is different in different years? I bought the same brand whole wheat flour I usually do- King Arthur- but my bread seemed to taste a bit sweeter than in the past, even though I didn't change my recipe.
 
I forgot to get the English muffins out of the freezer last night as I was going to have them with jam and I can't have a green smoothie as my bananas aren't ripe yet.:rolleyes:

I will probably have some baguette with vegan cheese, spinach and tomatoes and a cup of hibiscus tea.
 
Thee most delicious pizza I ever made. I will never crave dairy cheese pizza again.

I will now go post about said pizza in every other appropriate thread.

^^^^And I will read those posts, trying not to drool on the keyboard....

and Shyvas, your salads are a feast for the eyes as well as the palate! "Vegetarian Times" magazine once (back in the 1990s?) had an article about cooking food to emphasize its vibrant color ("Cooking for Color" was the title of the article). And vegan food has so much to offer, visually.

Thank you. Vegetables and fruit certainly do have many vibrant colours and make tasty dishes.:)
 
The salads do look very nice.:drool:

I had a smoothie with a banana, almond milk and some cocoa powder.:lick:

An avocado sandwich served with a lamb's lettuce, chicory, apple, Greek olive salad with evo/lemon and nooch.

Strawberries for dessert.
 
I was inspired to make a salad too, I had it with some very garlicky mushrooms and two Linda McCartney rosemary sausages.
