The red pepper flakes give it a bit of a kick to wake up your taste buds and keep you coming back for another bite.
So I found rolling the dough out, pressing my cookie cutters in the dough and then putting it back in the fridge for a few minutes to «harden» up a bit easier.

My only suggestion is to turn the heat of your burner up a little bit for a tad to expedite the thickening, and then turn the heat back down to finish it off and avoid scorching.
Once you're done buttering up your slice (with Earth Balance, of course), use the buttons at the end of this post to either go back and grab a little more from Bankrupt Vegan or keep moving down the line to check out what Bite Me (I'm Vegan) brought... And thanks for joining us!
For the veggie pizza one, I changed up the filling just a little bit by using a packet of ranch dressing seasoning I had leftover from some recipe testing awhile back.
Use the back of a fork to break up the potato a bit and create a little bowl for the pork.
If you have a lot of chocolate, put the brownies back into the freezer for the chocolate to firm up a little bit.
I discovered just how «creamy» a non-dairy soup can be a few weeks back when I added some Nutritional Yeast and bit of left over Vegan Cream Cheese to an otherwise plain old lentil soup I made up from leftover for dinner.
I made it for our supper club a few weeks back and ended up eating not one, not two, but three bowls of it the next day for lunch (I may be revealing just a bit too much about my eating habits by telling you that).
«I came back a bit late from the Euros and it was nice for my body because I could rest but not good for me because the team was doing well and another striker was doing well up front.
If Arteta has signed for one more year I'm okay with him backing up Coquelin (provided Coquelin continues to play at this level and this isn't just a playing for the contract issue) and coming in as double pivot for games when we need a bit more protection for the back four.
But eventually the car came back to us a little bit, enough for us to rally up to tenth for the finish.
Save a bit of cash this year and let Jenks back up Bellerin, I am starting to wonder if I am one of the very few who remembers how Jenks had stepped up while Sagna was out injured for a long time.
His form was patchy at best and when The Ox was moved back there for a few games he showed up far better than Bellerin had been doing.He seems to have been a bit more consistent lately but if we are offered the type of fee being touted by Juve and Madrid etc then grab the money quickly - he ain't that good.
So for a player who's been played out of position a bit and is coming back from injury, the signs are promising, hasn't lived up to the billing yet but is on his way.
Besides, we'll have to go in for a right - back in the summer anyway, so we might as well finish up an early bit of business.
^ I also think Giroud needs to be benched for a bit, give him a rest and fire him up, he seems to come back each time with more goals than before.
But let's back up from that for a bit..
Last night Embiid came back and after settling in (he was clearly sluggish after not playing for 3 weeks and bothered a bit by his mask) the sixers wound up winning by 20.
The players Wenger signed to strengthen the team, namely Mustafi, Xhaka and Kolasinac are simply not good enough for an aspiring top four team.They along with Czech and Ospina should be the first to be shown the door along with all the players currently out on loan.The Club would take a big bit in terms of resale value but it would free up considerable wages to be utilised in bringing in better quality defenders.Anybody who sees a bright future for Arsenal with Mustafi at Centre Back has my sympathy.
Back - up RB, I want to see Jenkinson told to fight for RB, he covered Sagna well and since he lost his place to Sagna (who didn't perform great) Jenks just went downhill a bit.
The accusation that Mesut Ozil is a bit of a luxury player for Arsenal has been heard ever since the German signed for the Gunners over two years ago and there has been evidence to back up the claim.
Coquelin has done a fantastic job since coming into the team and he's won me over a little bit to the idea of having a pure DM but I disagree with people saying we need another Pure DM as back up / competition for Coquelin.
The former Aston Villa ace has been fantastic for City since his positional move, with it seeming like Mendy might have a bit of a fight on his hands to get back into his side's starting line - up when he returns from injury.
Giroud would be his back up for games were we need something a bit different.
But we will likely just talk a good game, go all Jan linked with Hummel's to Howedes... have Kos back by then, and end up buying Mings on the last day only to loan him back along with the sound bite «Us, United, many teams in Europe look for top quality, but it is never easy in January».
This is an incredibly difficult question to answer for a variety of reasons, most importantly because over the years our once vaunted «beautiful» style of play has become a shadow of it's former self, only to be replaced by a less than stellar «plug and play» mentality where players play out of position and adjustments / substitutions are rarely forthcoming before the 75th minute... if you look at our current players, very few would make sense in the traditional Wengerian system... at present, we don't have the personnel to move the ball quickly from deep - lying position, efficient one touch midfielders that can make the necessary through balls or the disciplined and pacey forwards to stretch defences into wide positions, without the aid of the backs coming up into the final 3rd, so that we can attack the defensive lanes in the same clinical fashion we did years ago... on this current squad, we have only 1 central defender on staf, Mustafi, who seems to have any prowess in the offensive zone or who can even pass two zones through so that we can advance play quickly out of our own end (I have seen some inklings that suggest Holding might have some offensive qualities but too early to tell)... unfortunately Mustafi has a tendency to get himself in trouble when he gets overly aggressive on the ball... from our backs out wide, we've seen pace from the likes of Bellerin and Gibbs and the spirited albeit offensively stunted play of Monreal, but none of these players possess the skill - set required in the offensive zone for the new Wenger scheme which requires deft touches, timely runs to the baseline and consistent crossing, especially when Giroud was playing and his ratio of scored goals per clear chances was relatively low (better last year though)... obviously I like Bellerin's future prospects, as you can't teach pace, but I do worry that he regressed last season, which was obvious to Wenger because there was no way he would have used Ox as the right side wing - back so often knowing that Barcelona could come calling in the off - season, if he thought otherwise... as for our midfielders, not a single one, minus the more confident Xhaka I watched played for the Swiss national team a couple years ago, who truly makes sense under the traditional Wenger model... Ramsey holds onto the ball too long, gives the ball away cheaply far too often and abandons his defensive responsibilities on a regular basis (doesn't score enough recently to justify): that being said, I've always thought he does possess a little something special, unfortunately he thinks so too... Xhaka is a little too slow to ever boss the midfield and he tends to telegraph his one true strength, his long ball play: although I must admit he did get a bit better during some points in the latter part of last season... it always made me wonder why whenever he played with Coq Wenger always seemed to play Francis in a more advanced role on the pitch... as for Coq, he is way too reckless at the wrong times and has exhibited little offensive prowess yet finds himself in and around the box far too often... let's face it Wenger was ready to throw him in the trash heap when injuries forced him to use Francis and then he had the nerve to act like this was all part of a bigger Wenger constructed plan... he like Ramsey, Xhaka and Elneny don't offer the skills necessary to satisfy the quick transitory nature of our old offensive scheme or the stout defensive mindset needed to protect the defensive zone so that our offensive players can remain aggressive in the final third... on the front end, we have Ozil, a player of immense skill but stunted by his physical demeanor that tends to offend, the fact that he's been played out of position far too many times since arriving and that the players in front of him, minus Sanchez, make little to no sense considering what he has to offer (especially Giroud); just think about the quick counter-attack offence in Real or the space and protection he receives in the German National team's midfield, where teams couldn't afford to focus too heavily on one individual... this player was a passing «specialist» long before he arrived in North London, so only an arrogant or ignorant individual would try to reinvent the wheel and / or not surround such a talent with the necessary components... in regards to Ox, Walcott and Welbeck, although they all possess serious talents I see them in large part as headless chickens who are on the injury table too much, lack the necessary first - touch and / or lack the finishing flair to warrant their inclusion in a regular starting eleven; I would say that, of the 3, Ox showed the most upside once we went to a back 3, but even he became a bit too consumed by his pending contract talks before the season ended and that concerned me a bit... if I had to choose one of those 3 players to stay on it would be Ox due to his potential as a plausible alternative to Bellerin in that wing - back position should we continue to use that formation... in Sanchez, we get one of the most committed skill players we've seen on this squad for some years but that could all change soon, if it hasn't already of course... strangely enough, even he doesn't make sense given the constructs of the original Wenger offensive model because he holds onto the ball too long and he will give the ball up a little too often in the offensive zone... a fact that is largely forgotten due to his infectious energy and the fact that the numbers he has achieved seem to justify the means... finally, and in many ways most crucially, Giroud, there is nothing about this team or the offensive system that Wenger has traditionally employed that would even suggest such a player would make sense as a starter... too slow, too inefficient and way too easily dispossessed... once again, I think he has some special skills and, at times, has showed some world - class qualities but he's lack of mobility is an albatross around the necks of our offence... so when you ask who would be our best starting 11, I don't have a clue because of the 5 or 6 players that truly deserve a place in this side, 1 just arrived, 3 aren't under contract beyond 2018 and the other was just sold to Juve... man, this is theraputic because following this team is like an addiction to heroin without the benefits
