Vegan MoFo - Vermicelli Salad & Vegan Croissants!

Today's MoFo post for V was just supposed to be about my vermicelli salad but then I discovered something very, very exciting today. 

La Panella now sell vegan croissants!!! 

Even more excitingly they have plain & chocolate!!!  I haven't visited La Panella for awhile so I am unsure how long they have had them, but I did of course have to buy one to try it.  I went for a plain one & I tried a bit & I didn't love it, but then I heated it up & added some jam & I did love it.  I now think that I must go back & try a chocolate one.

My vermicelli salad was a bit boring in comparison, I prepare my noodles & then toss in a mixture of sweet chilli sauce & rice wine vinegar & then top with lots of vegies.  I used lettuce, carrot, snow peas, blanched broccoli & peanuts.

Pies

We are pretty fond of pies in my household, particularly Greg - although strangely he does not really like Funky Pies whereas I really like them. Recently I was at Radical Grocery at around lunchtime & decided to get myself a Funky Pie, I had the Chic n Cheezy (I think that is what it is called as it isn't on the website). It is filled with a thick cheesy sauce with 'chickeny' soy protein chunks & broccoli - delicious!!!



Greg is more of a fan of La Panella mushroom pies & we had some for dinner recently with a salad with a delicious dressing made from roasted capsicum & mayo. La Panella pies are super cheap & easy when you don't really want to cook.
