Autumn Vegan Potluck

Ashley organized another fun potluck at Candler Park the weekend before Halloween. I was working on stuff for the Boston Vegetarian Food Festival, so I made Kevin make the food. He made little individual open face pot pies. Yummy! Here it is in the center of my plate surrounded by tastes of a bunch of other yummy dishes.

I really did try to take it easy and not over eat, but it’s so hard to do at these things! I mean, look at the dessert spread:

So, of course, I had to try and taste as much as possible of those as well. *blort*

And here’s a crappy picture of everyone where you can’t tell anything because it’s crappy. But seriously, there were a bunch of people at that table in the shadows where you can’t see anything because the pic is crappy.

Perfect Potluck

Actually, every vegan potluck I’ve been to has completely rocked. And this one was no exception. Outside, at the park, nice Spring day and a ton of excellent food. This thing happened way back on Sunday. I know, that’s like 5 years ago in internet time. Also, I’m a dumbass and didn’t take any pics. But that’s okay because other people did.

I brought these crustless quiches. I did make some changes to the recipe. I used olive oil instead of cooking spray in the pan. Also, I doubled the recipe, but instead of doubling the mushrooms I added broccoli. Oh, and I think I sprinkled some extra nutritional yeast in there. And, I tossed together a quick citrus grain salad that was basically just wild rice/brown rice blend mixed with some quinoa, scallions, toasted walnuts, tangerines and blood orange with a sesame citrus dressing.

Thanks to Ashley Nicole to pulling this together. I’m sorry more of our vegan lunch group didn’t make it. They missed out!
