Sometimes I think Fluther doesn’t like me. I was in 2 recipes deep (without a single link) and poof! Everything is gone. So I guess I’ll try again, and try to write faster.
Another vegetarian here, not vegan. I love soup and soup is one of the dishes that is very easy to make, and easy to find vegan recipes, even of regular soups that originally were not vegan. I’m not going to write mine out again, because they flew off into cyberspace, but I’ll tell you what I like and try to find things that are fairly easy to make.
A question, though, @rockfan, isn’t one of your friends a vegan? Are you going to start cooking with and for her? That would be terrific if you cooked with her/him. Makes the whole vegan thing not seem so weird.
Anyway, I’ll start with some appetizers because these are always fun and regular people don’t seem as freaked out by them, ‘cause it’s just finger food after all.
