A Celebration!

Tyson finally got home this week which gave us another reason to celebrate! Friends and family from near and far gathered for his arrival. So, of course… tons of food was involved in this joyous occasion. And, Tyson’s sisters also made me a vegan cake for my birthday! They baked a banana peanut butter cake—now, what’s not to LOVE about all those ingredients? It was very rich and moist. YUM! Tanya also made some zesty sweet potato hummus, and other dips. While we toasted with champagne, we snacked on crackers, nuts, chips, dips, and of course…CAKE! We had three to finish!
For lunch, Haley made a delightful salad of mixed greens, nuts, peppers, mushrooms and pears topped off with maple balsamic vinegar and raspberry vinaigrette. I baked some bruschetta and sprinkled it with some nutritional yeast flakes, which are packed full of B12 and act as a cheese substitute.
There was SO much delicious food! It was a great celebration and we are all so glad that he is safely home! :)
