1. Creamy Vegan Mac and “Cheese”

Source: Creamy Vegan Mac and “Cheese”

This Creamy Vegan Mac and “Cheese” by Kayla Cappiello reminds me of mac and cheese based on the color and consistency of the sauce. Plus, any topping usually added to mac and cheese can be added here, as well! Andrew, on the other hand, still loves this recipe but thinks it should just be called exactly what it is: pasta with a creamy butternut squash sauce. I can’t say he’s wrong, but either way, it’s a crowd-pleaser in my household any day of the week, especially on a cold fall day when we just want to relax and eat all the comfort food we can.   Copyright © 2023 by Kayla Cappiello.

6. Carrot Top Salsa

Carrot tops are those feathery fronds that most people— if they get them at all—pull off as soon as they bring their carrots home. Sometimes they go straight in the trash. Or the compost. Or the rabbit cage. But did you know that carrot tops make a fine substitute for parsley and even qualify as a leaf vegetable on their own? Their slightly chewy texture makes them best suited for finely chopping up into recipes, but they add a unique, earthy, carrot-like flavor to salads, soups, and even this Carrot Top Salsa by Linda Ly. You can use it as a dip for chips and bread, a marinade for vegetables, and many other things!
