CHOCOLATE ITALIAN SPONGE CAKE

CHOCOLATE ITALIAN SPONGE CAKE by For the Love of Italian Cooking

An Italian chocolate sponge cake has only four ingredients: eggs, sugar, flour and cocoa powder. Vanilla can be added to enhance the chocolate flavour. The beauty of this cake is that it has no fat, no dairy, and no leavening agents. Stiffly beaten egg whites make this cake airy, soft, and spongy.

Spanish Style Beans and Rice by Rich H

This vegan adaptation of traditional Spanish Style Beans and Rice is a nice light dish. Plate it with some fresh fruit slices for added color and flavor and you have a lovely, healthy dinner.
