Menu Plan Monday Nov 1st

I hope everyone had a great Halloween!  We celebrated, as usual, with a big pumpkin carving party and have the orange goop on the walls to prove it.

What we actually made:

• Pear Cherry Crisp
• Chocolate Brownie Cupcakes from Whole Life Nutrition
• Sweet potato Cornbread, (vegan, I ran out of eggs!)courtesy of the GF Goddess
• Ginger Lemon Girl’s Choco chip cookies
• A gluten-free version of Ricki’s Raspberry Coconut Coffee Cake
• PB Chocolate Cake with Reeses Frosting
• Apple slices with a super yummy dip that I’ll be posting this week
• Meringues
• Pralines
• Heather’s Chicken Chili with added green peppers and more onions

And so…there’s a lot of food around still.

This week I need to make pesto because we had the first hard-ish frost, and it’s do or die time for the basil.  I wish I hadn’t waited so long, but it’s like I keep hoping that if I don’t do anything, it won’t get cold.  Hasn’t worked so far, but I still keep hoping.

Last week I also posted gluten/dairy free doughnuts…check ’em out!

Wendy of Celiacs in the House is our hostess and her theme is peppers. I don’t have any yet, but plan to add them in–they’re one of my favorite foods.

And…check out a BRM giveaway of Carol Fenster’s Book
