Yummy Evening

Tonight there was the smell of cardamom, coriander, and toasting naan bread in the house. Yum. We keep already made naan from the store in the freezer and just pop it in the toaster when a craving for Indian food hits.

The recipe is based on one from Madhur Jaffrey Indian Cooking, an excellent Indian cookbook in that it has lots of veggie dishes, the pictures are scrumptious, and the recipes are easy to modify if you don't have all the ingredients. Just really really good food - who would have thought that chickpeas and mushrooms go together, but oh, they do - in very good ways...

And then quite possibly the yummiest hardly any fat cookies ever, from The Vegan Chef. I need my chocolate fix, and these are perfect (sorry, couldn't get a good enough picture to do them justice in this light). They're called "Brownie Bites", 'cause they're kind of a cross between a brownie and a cookie - they're made with dried prunes! (can't taste that bit) and the only fat comes from the bit of cocoa power...I'll cheerfully devour these over the next couple of days....
