Homemade Pita Chips

This is a great recipe as it is pretty cheap, fast and easy to make for a party. All you need is a cookie sheet, some pitas, salt, and olive oil.

Just rip or cut the pitas into chip sized pieces. Lay them out on the cookie sheet. Spray them with some olive oil. Sprinkle them with some salt. Put them in the oven till they are as crisp as you like them, if you prefer softer I would stick closer to 350 degrees and from crisper chips closer to 400 degrees. This should make it easier to not overcook them.

Vegan Eggnog Muffins wtih Boozy Raisins

Todays special treat was these eggnog muffins with boozy raisins. These were something hubby saw in my current favorite baking cookbook and decided he really wanted me to make them so today I made a test batch and if we like them then I will be making more for the Festivus party we are going to Thursday night. I know they are a bit too traditional holiday to normally bring to a Festivus party, but hey they do have rum in them so considering this Festivus party is really pretty much all about booze and video games I think I am fine with these muffins.

This recipe is from page 67 of Kris Holechek's The 100 Best Vegan Baking Recipes: Amazing cookies, cakes, muffins, pies, brownies and breads.
