Wow, what a great weekend! After restocking the fridge on Friday (and getting asked at Sprouts if I juice?!?....no, we just eat LOTS of veggies!) I was ready for a weekend of cooking!! Saturday before hitting the Fountain Hills Art Fair I whipped up some Raw Vegan Jalapeno Corn Bread to start dehydrating for Sundays menu. It was a perfect Arizona Saturday morning to be out walking and enjoying great art! Not to rub it in for those of you stuck in the snow, but it was about 80 degrees! The find of the day was new cutting boards! We decided to come back on our way out to buy so we didn't have to carry them around. Smart move - he marked a bunch down during that time and I picked up TWO corien cutting boards for $5 EACH!! And oh so perfect for the vegan kitchen, one is shaped like a cow and the other like a rabbit. LOL! I now put the poor husband to work helping me chop veggies.
After walking the Art Fair for a couple hours we started getting hungry and didn't want to fall into the fair food trap of crap, so we headed home for lunch. For fun I Googled vegan restaurants in the area and hot damn I found one! I was shocked as it was so close to our house and had NO idea it was there! The Cutting Board Bakery & Café had great reviews so we HAD to go check it out! The place was tucked away in a little strip mall and was cute, but really needed better ambiance. We placed our orders and with only a couple people before us we waited a good 25 minutes for our food....which I can understand as it's all made fresh. My husband ordered the burrito, which he loved, and I ordered the roasted veggie sandwich, great flavor! Both came with blue corn chips and yummy salsa. We really want to come back and try the burger and pizza! Great food, just not Pomegranate Café that is our all time NUMBER 1 place for vegan food!
