Sour Cream Lemon Pie

I only recently discovered the cream variety of lemon pie as opposed to the meringue. This one isn't layered like a meringue is, but you can still throw some whipped cream on top anyway if you like. The filling itself is richer and creamier.  I'm in love!

Mushroom Heaven

Cooking is an art, a form of self expression, which feeds both the body and the soul.  One of my favorite hobbies is cobbling together bits and pieces of different recipes into something better than any of the originals.  Following the jump is one such astounding success.

It takes a good 2 1/2 hours to make this beast, but it feeds me for a week and tastes like I'm eating at a 5 star restaurant.  I think I've died and gone to heaven just about now.

This can be turned vegetarian by using vegetable stock instead of chicken broth and using extra fresh mushrooms and eggplant in place of the chicken.  To go full vegan you'd need to find some sort of alternative to cream.  I'm not sure what in particular that would be, though.
