Anyway, on New Year's Eve, T picked me up some roasted vegetables from a local Italian deli. These are so flavorful, the owner said he only uses olive oil and seasonings, but the flavor is outrageous!
 |
| For our New Year's Eve feast, T made some delicious vegan mashed potatoes (he boiled the potatoes with cloves of garlic then processed them with unsweetened coconut milk creamer, seasonings and Earth Balance). They were to live for! He also made some stuffed baby portabella mushrooms (stuffed with breadcrumb and seasonings) and Field Roast Celebration Roast. Usually, I am not a fan of mock meat AT ALL. But I really like Field Roast and the ingredients aren't fake, everything you can pronounce! Although, in the New Year I think I am going to cut out gluten again. My tummy wasn't too fond of it. I guess the pregnancy "I can eat gluten now" thing wore off. :( This plate is missing some greens, but we did have a small side salad (forgot to take a pic). |

| For dessert I made a raw vegan lemon cheesecake from Sweet Gratitude. I finally got a copy! :) |
 |
| This was super delicious. I love lemon in desserts! I can't wait to make more desserts from Sweet Gratitude. |

| On New Year's Day we headed to visit our families, down at the shore. It was really beautiful out (almost 55 degrees!), so it was nice to get some fresh air. I ran into my favorite health food store (while T, Ginger and Baby A stayed in the car). I grabbed a large green juice that had kale, lemon, apple and a shot of wheatgrass. This was super strong, but I chugged the whole thing! ;) |
 |
| I also picked up some raw tacos. Yummy, yum, yum! |
 |
| I hope you all have a fabulous day! XO |

Happy 2011 to the Ginger household too!!!
That juice sounds and looks so great, we're ordering our juicer today, SO excited!
Your cheesecake looks awesome. I was wishing last night for a piece of ours, but the whole pie went to my parent's ;)
Your feast looks yummy too! I've been trying to stay GF now, but have previously loved the Field Roast products. They are especially handy for packing hubby's sandwiches for lunch.
Sorry the tummy is more sensitive now. Bummer. The raw tacos look so good. And very funny you had the same split pea soup from whole foods!
YUM YUM
I agree I love lemon in desserts too! Well I just love lemon, haha
Happy 2011 to you and your wonderful family!!!

Delicious!
I never thought about boiling cloves of garlic with the potatoes, but now my interest is piqued. I may have to try this!
Have an amazing new year!
What a lovely meal! I have never had Field Roast.. it looks good to me though.. but that green juice is what is screaming DRINK ME!! I may have to splurge this week and get some good organic greens for some juicing.
10 years... congratulations!
What a great new years feast - and what a precious new years gift you have :)
The cheesecake looks fabulous! I agree, lemon is always great - and refreshing!
Happy 2011 to the 3 of you! xoxoxo
Happy New Year, lovely Lauren!!!
Know the feeling with the tummy- mine's being ridiculous. There's alot to be said for being vegan and gluten-free :) Feel better soon xxx
Hey beauty!!!
Love to see what you've been eating (delicious, all of it) and it's so nice that T has been pitching in so much.
