Only unusual ingredient was nutritional yeast. This gives it the "cheesy" flavor.
Next time I will roast 2 ears of corn (& cut the kernels off) and put them into the soup. That was all the was missing in my opinion.

Veggie Broccoli Cheese Soup
This recipe is from Pinterest. I give it a 4 out of 5. It has a whole head of cauliflower and broccoli. The cauliflower is pureed with an immersion blender (I was glad because I generally don't like cauliflower). Anyway, the flavor was very nice.

Blue Cornmeal Pancakes
These are AMAZING. I give them a 5 out of 5. They taste like a very hearty sweet cornmeal pancake and with the pine nut butter (also AMAZING) and some pure Vermont maple syrup...yummy!
The only unusual ingredients were blue corn meal and white spelt flour.

Fried Dandelion Greens
My first official vegan meal.
My treasure hunt for ingredients took me to Trader Joe's & Earth Fare. And I never found umeboshi plum vinegar. So I just used red wine vinegar instead.
Other odd ingredients: white miso paste, dandelion greens, & brown mustard seeds.
The most fun part of this recipe...put brown mustard seeds in hot oil and wait for them to pop!! It was like popcorn or like little bullets trying to get you!
Finished product below
My overall rating is a 3 out of 5. It was soooooo flavorful with 7 cloves of garlic, a jalepeno, and red pepper flakes. I would make it again except use kale instead of the dandelion greens. They were a little too bitter for me. I hate to say but it would have been great with a good little steak :)
The cookbook says it is a good savory side for the blue cornmeal pancakes that I am making tomorrow. So we will see about that. I ate it just by itself and it needed something else because the flavors were intense. Maybe a good piece of toasted vegan bread.
Let me know if you want the recipe & I will send it to you.
