PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY COOKIES

This week I Made:

PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY COOKIES for DESSERT.

Recipe from The Vegan Table By Colleen Patrick-Goudreau.

These are cookies are AMAZING.

They are super easy to make and really do taste like a PB & J.

Perfect for cookie swaps, tea parties, or just to satisfy a craving.

I'm not much of a cookie person, but these are out of this world.

I can't wait to make them again.

Unfortunately, my husband is getting his upper wisdom teeth extracted tomorrow afternoon, so I'm going to have to wait until he recovers.

Poor me, I mean, poor him.

AFRICAN PEANUT SOUP

Today I Made:

AFRICAN PEANUT SOUP for DINNER.

Recipe from REAL SIMPLE MAGAZINE.

Diced tomatoes, tomato paste, peanut butter, garlic, cayenne pepper, brown rice, vegetable broth, spices and topped with more brown rice and green onions.

This is a great example of a panty inspired dish that happens to be one of my husband's favorite soups.

I highly recommend trying this recipe.

I've been making it for years and every time I take my first spoonful, I always wonder why I don't make it more often.

SELF-FROSTING PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES

The Day Before Yesterday I Made:

SELF-FROSTING PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES for DESSERT.

Recipe from My Sweet Vegan by Hannah Kaminsky.

Moist peanut butter cupcakes topped with a peanut butter chocolate spread swirled right into the batter before baking.

No need for extra frosting!

These are THE best vegan cupcakes we've had.

Perfect for introducing a NONVEGAN to VEGAN baked goods.

None would guess that they contain NO chicken eggs, cow's milk, or butter.

They are so unbelievably delicious and so moist.

Great with a cup of HOT morning coffee!
