Root Beer Bundt Cake

Root Beer Bundt Cake

I have a mad crush.  My crush, or I should say crushes, and I are separated by several states but really, why should that stop me?  We share a love of all things sweet and traveling to destinations solely based on cuisine.  If those commonalities are not enough, I am sure we can survive on my infatuation with their cookbooks.  I am talking of course about Matt Lewis and Renato Poliafito.  I have now made several recipes from their “Baked” books and I am smitten.

Deviled Eggs

Deviled Eggs
One of the issues with trying to be what I like to call, a "week-day vegan", is my little guy and his animal food palate.  I have been able to switch him to Almond Milk without fuss and he is ok with the veggie dinners, but take away his deviled eggs and there will be tears.  That said, a part of me likes that he loves what I consider to be an adult appetizer.  I have an image of kids who try deviled eggs having the same reaction as Tom Hanks in "Big" when he tries Caviar for the first time.  Priceless scene.

So this one is for my kid.  Happy munching.
