Vegan foods are always my favourite, actually i learned how to make vegan bakes only after entering this fabulous virtual blogsphere.If i ran out of eggs or milk products, i dont even hesitate a second to prepare my bakes as vegan.As i told earlier, my theme for this week's blogging marathon is cooking with electric appliances,how can i forget my all time favourite oven. Let me tell you a secret, i have two ovens at home. Now you can guess how am baking this much, i can prepare two or three bakes per day,if i feel very down.
Yes baking makes me happy,coming to this vegan bread, its a quick bread and i prepared this bread simply with finely grated cucumber, walnuts and chocolate.If am introducing something new in bakes,mostly i'll go for chocolate just to mask it. With chocolate,i can feed anything easily to my family members.I really want to make a quick bread for my third day of blogging marathon and went for this month's magic ingredients of Magic Mingle Challenge as Kalyani chosed both cucumber and walnuts as magic ingredients.Obviously this bread comes out extremely spongy,super moist and nutty, my kids enjoyed having this bread for their breakfast with their favourite nutella spread.Check out the bloggers running this 24th edition of blogging marathon here.Sending to Siri's Celebrating First Anniversary.

Hello Priya.. I saw the guest post of yours in spicy treat blog, the cake looks awesome and the picture is superb.. I was shocked by seeing the perfect picture of your in her blog. Why I'm saying this, because I still remember that when I had a event in my blog called "treat to eyes" and I told you also to participate, but u told me you can't take the perfect picture... This picture are simply awesome, see you are not just a good cook but you are also a good photographer ;)

Il va falloir que je teste.
