Vegan Dinner Party

We had our neighbors over for dinner tonight. They're not vegan, but are very open to vegan dishes and very willing to make vegan food for us. I made a very autumnal menu:

• Arugula and mesclun salad with radishes, carrots, walnuts, and cranberries
• Homemade onion soup bread
• Homemade seitan sausage braised with Brussels sprouts, cabbage, and radicchio
• Mashed parsnips

Finished off with an apple-cranberry crisp that our neighbors brought. It all came out really well and they both had seconds!
