Carrot Muffins and Linkage!

Because I can't bear to post without pictures, here are some of yummy Carrot Raisin Muffins from Vegan with a Vengeance. This was the first time I've made these. I don't know why I skipped them for so long. The VWAV muffins are my very favorite muffins to make. Yum! For some reason I expected these muffins to be super sweet like carrot cake, but - they were very nice and breakfasty, not cupcakey at all. The muffins I ate the next day were awesome cut in half, toasted lightly in the toaster oven and smeared with Earth Balance. Sooo good.

And even if you eat like 6 of them in one sitting, you can just tell yourself how great it is that you're eating so many carrots while you're doing it. Because we all know that carrots are good for you. So how can you go wrong?

Now for the getting down to business portion of the program. I need to add some links! Because I am quite forgetful and potentially distracted by shiny objects, give me a comment if you're not in my links and would like to be. :D Or you can just comment to tell me how freaking cute alpacas are. Because they are. Yes they are!!! Stop it. You're wrong. They're cute, so there. I knew you'd see it my way.

  4. The Mac & Cheese from VegNews Jan./Feb. 2008 issue does not contain soy cheese, nutritional yeast, or tofu.
    The sauce is made out of carrots, poatotoes,onions, dijon, spices, and some other stuff I can't recall from the top of my head.
    I'll email the recipe to you if you want.

  7. I just found your blog via the Strawberry Mango cobbler link from Vegan Dad, and I love your photo of Piper about to take a swipe out of it! I've saved this recipe for my "to do" list. And yes, the alpacas are very cute too!

  11. The brown Alpaca looks suspiciously like your muffin...watch out! There might be alpacas hiding in the next batch. They love camouflage.

    The muffins look super yummy!!!
