Vegan Soul Food, part 2

View from the apartment window - a departure from the usual clear sunny fall days we've been having in KC this fall

I love fall. It's my favorite season by far. The clear blue Midwestern skies, the crisp and vibrant leaves and the cool breezes catch me by surprise and flood my senses with beauty every year. I'm also a fan of fall because I love the bounty of the fall harvest.

This next recipe helped warm me up on a particularly chilly and rainy fall day (the only one we've had so far in KC).

Vegan Soul Food, part 1




I made it through Musculoskeletal and now we're on to Cardiopulmonary I. What better way to kick off the new section than to make a batch of tasty black-eyed pea fritters?! My next few blog posts will be recipes from a cookbook my sister sent me last month: Vegan Soul Kitchen by Bryant Terry (Thanks Krsitin!). What I love about this book is that Terry adds personal stories to go along with each recipe and he also suggests a music, art, and even reading selection to "pair" with each delicious creation.
