Hello everyone, hope you have a wonderful midweek so far! ๐Ÿค—

Since Iโ€™m on gluten-free vegan diet, I baked Chickpea Pumpkin Blondies with dark chocolate chips. ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿ˜‹

Main ingredients: chickpeas, pumpkin purรฉe, 2 tbsp of maple syrup, cinnamon spice, baking powder all blended in food processor and added pecan and dark chocolate chips as final step. Baked at 350F for 30 mins and you can have your gluten-free vegan treats with bonus the kitchen smells amazing. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

I love to have with my homemade cashew milk (soak raw cashews overnight, rinse and blend with water) sprinkled with cinnamon spice. ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿฅ›

Todayโ€™s meal: Mixed sliced mushrooms, bitter melons and carrots Soup ๐Ÿฅฃ since I get my treat from chickpea pumpkin blondies. ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ‘

As always, be inspired, be joyful, take a picture and Enjoy it! ๐Ÿ˜‹โค๏ธ

Hey Kainan, thank you very much! ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ™I think this type of treat is perfect for you during these busy midterms tests. You can make ahead of time and keep in your fridge for 1 week too. ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ‘

Hey Koko youโ€™ve excelled here these look just so good and bursting with goodness.

Your meal also sounds lovely and Iโ€™m even more impressed that you make your own cashew milk and we can see that it is very rewarding so nice one and you enjoy your lush blondies as I know that I would. ๐Ÿ˜

Thank you very much Jerry for saying that, much appreciated! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™

Homemade Cashew milk is now my top favorite milk mixed so well with turmeric and pepper I drink every night now. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

My parents enjoyed these treats too as I try to get them stay away from snack shops. You are master chef at baking Jerry and Iโ€™m slowly progressing! ๐Ÿ˜‡

Thank you Koko and your culinary skills have been noticed and admired. ๐Ÿ™

Thank you very much Happyman4 for saying that! ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™

Yes, we made soya milk over there too sooo good and made soya dessert with ginger sugar syrup(eating hot or cold) too. ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ‘

Basil seeds are very popular over there just like chia seeds western use more.

Tapioca balls: have you had the taro tapioca balls? They are trendy over here in CA, so delicious with milk tea.

I donโ€™t think I had barley tea before ๐Ÿค”.

My parents had to cancel their trip to VN now as Covid is crazy over there, all countries like Southeast Asia, Philippines too. You and your family take great care! ๐Ÿค—

I think your kids will like very much with these tapioca balls made from sweet potato starch and taro, they made into yummy dessert over here. Iโ€™m sure you can make it easily if you want to. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

I see Barley is gluten so I canโ€™t have it now but I looked up very delicious and popular in Asia.

Enjoy your home made pumpkin seeds make such great snack. ๐Ÿ˜‹๐Ÿ‘ If you can roast well, eating the skin of the seeds too is good for you.

Yes, Itโ€™s the Covid red zone now and vaccines are not available to all. Thatโ€™s what I told my parents too, wait till next year and travel, right now is not okay.

You have a good rest for the day! ๐Ÿค—
