Last weekend the Austin Food Bloggers got together for a potluck picnic. The food was all very veg-friendly, and perhaps these photos will give you some spring food inspiration.
I usually take salads to these events, but this time I made my favorite savory muffins. Everyone seemed to enjoy them.
Oatmeal Walnut Muffins from
Vegan Soups for All Seasons.
Always a favorite of mine, plain ol’ raw fresh fruits and veggies.
Bruschetta
Shredded raw Brussels sprouts with fennel. My first raw Brussels and they were fantastic!
Mango, Grapefruit, and Mint Salad – a delicious flavor combo.
Artichoke Pesto Tartlets. Put a jar of artichoke hearts in the food pro, add your favorite pesto, and spoon into filo tarts. So simple and so fabulous.
Blueberry Cheesecake Bars. I wish I had taken a picture of a plated single bar because it was the most amazing shade of purple.
Quinoa and Black Bean Salad – yay!
Avocado and raw tuna?
Multicolored beet slices stacked with goat cheese and topped with nuts and microgreens. Stunning presentation.
Bread
Chocolate Chip Cookies – the big flat chewy kind.
Swiss Chard with onions and garlic. This was my favorite dish. Chard fresh from the farmers market and perfectly sautéed.
Austin Food Bloggers always rock!

That potluck looks like it was awesome!
The spread looks delicious! So sad I missed it.
another great Austin food blogger potluck success! :) everything looks absolutely wonderful, especially the swiss chard, fruit salad, quinoa salad, raw brussels (i've never had them raw either and now i want to try them!), and cookies. and of course your oatmeal walnut muffins are the best, Diann! so yum! yay!
That sure looks like an amazing feast of incredible dishes. The artie tarts--so simple, yet they sound just perfect (and love the color)! And I also adore Nava's soup book--I've made a couple of the quickbreads, but not those muffins--yet. :)
What a wonderful spread they had. A good time must have been had by everyone.
oh my goodness that spread looks amazing!!! I'm moving to Austin in January!
