    A few weeks ago I mentioned that my vegan "niece" is living with us now. When she and her sister were little I was a live-in babysitter for them, and cooked for them often. I would always try to make them a vegan version of what the non-vegans were having. I made her this Vegan Mushroom Florentine the night I made us Veal and Crab Florentine.  I made it as her dinner, but it would also be excellent as a side dish for pasta, steak, or chicken. It would also make a great topping for pasta instead of sauce if you chopped the mushrooms fine. Oh, now I want to do that! Or pizza!

    Let's face it, mushrooms aren't pretty. I promise it tastes much better than it looks! As with the Veal and Crab Florentine, I used thawed frozen spinach in this recipe, and I think fresh cooked spinach would look better. For the broth, I chose a non-tomato based vegetable broth. Marissa loved it!

    Before I give you the recipe, it's time for a short, one word answers survey:

    1. Do you want more pumpkin recipes this year?

    2. Do you need Thanksgiving dinner main course recipes?

    3. Are you looking more for Christmas treats or Christmas dinner ideas?

    Please leave your answers in the comments, or you can email me at [email protected] if you have more than a one word answer to add, would like to see something else, or have any questions on any of the recipes you find here. Your answers will help me decide what to write about over the next several months and I appreciate your input.
