This was followed by a warm Potato Leek and Fresh Asparagus Soup topped with Wild Garlic Chives.
Looking at the leeks
The main course was Walnut "Neatballs" in a Vegan Bechamel Sauce with Quinoa and Steamed Kale. This required a little hands-on assistance from some willing volunteers.
Getting into the mix
Thank you, Jeff and Linda!
Lovely little rows
We finished the evening with a Chocolate Molten Lava Cake and Raspberry Sauce.
The alchemy of hot water and chocolate

Special THANKS to my helpful assistant: mom!! :)
Everything was yummy! Those "neatballs" were especially tasty. I would like to make them for a friend but she is allergic to nuts. Can you suggest a substitute for them? Also, I was hesitant to try the Elixir but it was so refreshing on a warm, spring day.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you liked everything! I don't know if there's a suitable substitute for the walnuts since they were a large component of the recipe. Maybe you could try substituting crumbled tempeh, though that might make them a little too moist. It's definitely worth experimenting since all the other ingredients work well together.
ReplyDeleteeverything was delicious! can't wait to do this again soon.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to have an outdoor event once garden starts growing this summer. Stay tuned!
