Simplest Dessert Full of Flavor (Vegan)

-
This is the simplest, cheapest and best tasting dessert. It takes about 30 second to make and costs only pennies. It's also vegan and by extension vegetarian as well.

Ingredients
1 Slice Soft Style Whole Grain Bread (Like Stroehmans or Freihoffers or Wonder)
Peanut Butter
Chocolate Syrup

Spread the peanut butter on the bread. Swirl with chocolate syrup.

That's it. Eat and enjoy. It's very simple. It super quick to make and is quite delicious really. It really hits the spot when you want something sweet and rich and a little bit filling. The peanut butter adds some nice nutrition, but is also decadent.

Some interesting variations also come to mind. Strawberry or caramel syrup or any combination of the three. Other nut butters like almond or cashew or macadamia. You could also use a more desert like bread or even a bagel. Cinnamon swirl or raisin... the permutations are endless.

But the idea at it's core is to keep it very simple and still achieve a sweet dessert treat. Peanut butter and chocolate syrup on a humble piece of soft bread - it sounds too easy, but I love it and you will too.

The other day I was browsing amazon for vegan food. Rice mixes in particular because I love flavored rice, but do not love buying lots of expensive spices. What I was really cravi

A few flavors of rice a roni that I know of, are vegan. Spanish and Fried Rice I believe. Herb and Butter is vegetarian. Or so it reads as vegetarian from the ingredients list.

This recipe is a cross between gazpacho and romesco. It takes elements of both and creates a unique variation that's both sweet and hot.  It has influences from both the Mediterranean and the Caribbean.  But above all else, it's 100% vegan and totally delicious.  A good sauce makes everything better.  Ingredients 10 mini sweet peppers (red, yellow and orange) 6 small cloves garlic 1 red habanero 2 tbls canola oil 1 tbl salt 1 tsp black pepper 2 tsps dry basil 2 cups water 1/2 cup garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed Instructions Cut the veg into small chunks.
