Tomorrow's Dinner

Some friends of ours are all getting together for an evening of delicious food from various African countries.  I am making Futari, which I've heard is a popular West African dish.  It is a mix of yams, onions, coconut milk, cinnamon, cloves, and a certain kind of squash.  A kind that I don't have access to.  So I am using Butternut Squash.  I'm sure it won't be as good as the real stuff, but it sure does smell good right now.


Butternut Squash
Though similar to some of my other produce photos, the positioning of the squash on this one is quite different.  Regardless, I love all produce and couldn't help but take a picture of this beautiful vegetable.

Vegan Creamy Sweet Potato Soup

This delicious soup was my addition to Easter dinner at my mother's house.  I also made a garlic and lacinato kale dish, but that was just a quick three minute side.


Vegan Creamy Sweet Potato Soup
I used fifteen pounds of potatoes.  There was maybe one bowl's worth remaining.  I'll consider it a success.
