Merry Christmas Lovies!

Fair warning: this will be a long post...but I promise to incorporate oodles of pictures and only share good recipes ;) ...five and a half to be exact.

How was your Christmas? Did you get any good pressies? Here are the most amusing of my gifts ;)
Picture
Onto the food. I know that's all you people care about anyways ;)

Breakfast was the Pumpkin Pie Cinnamon Rolls you previewed yesterday.
Picture
They were fantastic and required little adaptation.  Hands down one of the best vegan recipes I have ever had the pleasure of making.  I made a half batch but did not halve the pumpkin pie filling because last time I made these no one could not they had pumpkin in them.  It made a difference.  The recipe can be found here and I will post the chocolate icing recipe below.

Christmas dinner started with salad topped with red grapes, toasted walnuts, dried figs, and a balsamic reduction.
Picture
Then we dug into the real feast...for me, it was mashed potatoes and gravy, wild rice pilaf, green beans, and rolls.  The family had prime rib (and creme brulee for dessert).
Picture
Now, I am not a rice person, especially when it comes to pilaf.  It has never been a palate pleasing dish for me but I would have to say as far a pilaf's go, this one is the best I've had.  The dried fruits and wild rice are wonderful together and extremely filling.  You can find this recipe on Oh She Glows.  I omitted the onion and celery but otherwise followed the recipe exactly.  Enjoy :)
Picture
The Tahini-Garlic Mashed Potatoes recipe  came from Whole Foods.  The vegan gravy was also from Oh She Glows.  These two complimented each other well and the potatoes were wonderful but I look forward to trying the high-protein mashed potatoes recipe on OSG next year.

Lastly, the Green Beans with Pecans and Clementine Dressing recipe was also from Whole Foods.  Oh! And the rolls were by Alexia and were just frozen ciabatta rolls.  Still delicious though!

Cranberry Pear Scones

This is Christmas in a scone. Seriously.  
I know I haven't posted anything in forever...and I know I sound like a broken record, but I'm sorry!  Once I got over my bronchitis/pneumonia I went back to my internship 5 days a week, 10-12 hours a day to try and catch up on hours.  Theeeen I GRADUATED!  So I am finally now able to take a breather and share some fantastic vegan recipes with you. I. am. pumped.
Back to the scones...I have never made scones before, but I would consider this a mostly successful attempt! (see my note at the end of the recipe)  Cranberries and pears are wonderful winter fruits and this is a great was to showcase them.  So snuggle up in your favorite blanket next to the fire, watch the snow fall, and enjoy your scone with some tasty tea.  It's Christmas time!  Treat yourself.
