Ingredients:

1 ½ cups apples, skin removed and cut into ½ inch slices

1-teaspoon nutmeg

2 teaspoons cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In an 8" X 8" pan, alternate layers of squash and apples. You will want to end with apples on top layer. Sprinkle the nutmeg and cinnamon spices over the top layer.

For many people, they make Sunday their "cook" day. Many times you can have the kitchen to yourself and you can take your time putting together yummy vegan dishes for the week.

A good dish to make is no-chicken soup, especially if it is cold outside. No-chicken soup is very easy if you use no-chicken Better than Bouillon. Simply cut up carrots, celery, onions add pasta or brown rice.

Another good soup recipe is the Roasted Carrot Coconut soup from Sarah Kramer's Vegan A Go-Go cookbook. It is very good. It tastes a lot like a Thai curry sauce and can probably be useful with stir fried vegetables.

One thing you do need is a good food chopper like a Vita Mix and herb mincer to make the soup smoother.
