Hi everyone! I hope you are enjoying a wonderful summer. I am excited with the fresh peaches and nectarines that are now in season. I was doubly excited to find out that Julie Hasson was looking for volunteers to test her recipes for her new cookbook. I jumped on that bandwagon real fast. My family is really excited, because it is a cookbook of yummy desserts. My DH has a sweet tooth that never stops craving her delicious desserts. Here we have her "Cinnamon Sugar Peach Pie" getting ready to be topped and put in the oven. I cheated and used a whole wheat vegan frozen pie crust.
Topped and ready to go in the oven.
Out of the oven, but now we must wait for it to cool. This is the hardest part for my family.
Ok, it's finally time! The first slice came out nicely. Boy, does it look good.
So the second piece didn't come out quite as nicely, but who doesn't like pie and soy delicious?
Summertime is grill time. Susan's ribz are fantastic.
This time I cut them apart once they were done baking and soaked them in BBQ sauce.


Because my sweet husband is my omniman we don't have a vegan grill. I use my Wolfgang Puck indoor grill for these yummy ribz. Here they are grilling and within minutes they are ready to eat.


These ribz are so good. I even took them to work for breakfast. They are just as fantastic cold. What a flavourful, high protein snack! I forgot to let you know that when I make them I don't use the liquid smoke ( I really don't care for that product), also I have not been able to find Spanish paprika so I use regular paprik along with 1/2 tsp. of cumin and the smokey flavor comes out perfectly. Susan also makes them with a sweet and sour sauce which I plan on trying very soon.
