Meatless Monday Recipe Round-Up - 10/3
* Vegan Pumpkin Spice Soy Latte
All the coziness of a pumpkin spice latte in a coffee-free version! Spicy chai tea is the perfect accent to pumpkin spice flavors. Take that Starbucks! 🙂
* Creamy Pumpkin Roasted Potato Salad
I've taken a creamy-delicious summer potato salad and infused it with the flavors of fall! Pumpkin and crunchy sweet onion in each bite. Roasted tiny potatoes have crisp skins and tender flesh - perfect pairing with my creamy pumpkin sauce.
* Pumpkin Pie Oatmeal
Start your fall morning off right with this pumpkin pie oatmeal. Healthy and delicious with a swirl of coconut milk cream on top!
* 20 Naughty & Nice Dessert Recipes
Sometimes it is nice to take the guilt out of "dessert hour" by adding a little "nice" in your "naughty" dessert. These recipes inspire naughty/nice treats like Strawberries and Coconut Cream - and a chocolate molten cake that is nicer than it sinfully looks! Slideshow.
* Pumpkin Cider Shake
I love this light version of a Pumpkin Pie Shake. The addition of fresh fall apple cider is the perfect touch to pumpkin spice flavors.
* Ten Squash Recipes to "Fall" For
Why should pumpkin get all the glory? These ten squash recipes will leave you "falling" for squash - butternut, acorn and more! I love my Acorn Alfredo pasta..
* A Look at Lyfe Kitchen's New Vegan-Friendly Menu
Tal Ronnen and Art Smith craft a chef-approved, vegan-friendly menu for this casual dining/fast-food chain launching in Northern California this month. Plans to open 250 locations in the next 5 years means this menu may be coming to you!
* Raw Chocolate Shake
Go healthy and raw with this chocolate shake. Makes a delicious afternoon pick-me-up or breakfast sip! So rich and delicious that it's worthy for dessert too. Raw cacao is rich in antioxidants.

A few fun kitchen tips on how to peel those pesky cloves of garlic..
