    Have you checked out vegan blogs such as Oh She Glows or Peas and Thank You or Fat Free Vegan ? Those are three of my favorites and most things I've cooked I've liked. Findingvegan.com is also a good source for recipes.

    1/2 cup almond milk
    1/3 cup raisins (optional)
    1 tsp vanilla

    I made this today and loved it!

    Tomato Swiss Chard Cannellini Bean Soup (vegan homemade):

    Sautee 1 medium yellow onion in 1 Tbsp olive oil.
    Add 1 large can (32 oz) of crushed tomatoes with basil.
    Add 2- 15oz cans of cannellini beans.
    Add 1 container or 3.5 cups sausage style crumbles (I used Wegmans – Don’t Be Piggy).
    Add ½ vegetable bullion cube to 1 cup warm water and try to break up/dissolve the cube.
    Add the following spices to the water: ½ tsp sea salt, ½ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp onion powder, ¼ tsp cayenne pepper, and 1 Tbsp dried parsley.
    Add the water-spice mixture to the pot and also add 2 additional cups of water.
    Add 1 bunch Red Swiss Chard or 3 cups chopped (stems trimmed off) and simmer on medium-low for about 20 minutes.

    Mine came out to be 12 cups, so I made it 8 servings at 1.5 cups each.
