Today I want to talk to you about some of my favourite bright and shiny NEW and awesome things.First of all, the obvious:
We’ve got a new month starting and it just so happens to be the brightest and shiniest of the year! December, aka “Christmas month”, starts tomorrow! And in just 31 days, we’ll be kicking off a brand new year!
And maybe you’ve noticed that I Love Vegan is sporting a new refreshed look? Just recently I stayed up irresponsibly late and made some updates to the blog’s typography, colour scheme, logo, background, andsidebar, plusa couple of other minor changes. Did I mention that my intention was just to switch up oneof the fonts on the site??? When inspiration strikes, I let it do its thing.
Spurred on by I Love Vegan’s snazzy new look, I absolutely needed to add an awesomely comprehensive recipe index, right away.Now you can see every single recipe that’s on our blog (even when it’s just a wee little recipe, buried in a BIG recipe, like a vegan lunch bowl!), listed out all on ONE page for some ridiculously easy searching. There might not be any pretty pictures, but I think you’ll love the simple usability.
Now, the next item on my list of awesome new things I NEED to tell you about, are these beauties right here:
The Little Potato Company’s NEW Chilean Splash Creamers. Now tell me, honestly, are these not some of the most beautiful potatoes you’ve ever seen??
Here's a little info on the beautiful new Chilean Splash Creamer potatoes, they’re:
- a one-of-a-kind special seasonal varietal bred in the Chilean Andes
- bold and downright gorgeous! Seriously, get a load of that purple "splash"!
- similar in size to The Little Potato Company’s Fingerling potatoes
- slightly sweet, soft-skinned and ultra-velvety in texture
- pre-washed and requireno peeling, just like the rest of The Little Potato Co’s Creamers.
- They’re also a fantastic source of fibre and potassium! Cheers for nutritious and delicious whole foods!
In this recipe, I decided to let simplicity reign supreme and I let the Creamer potatoes shine. I quartered the Chilean Splash Creamers, mixed them with a splash of olive oil, dried chipotle, paprika, garlic and powder, salt and pepper, and popped them in the oven to roast to crispy perfection. With the potatoes roasting in the oven, we can turn our attention to making the most luxuriously creamy and flavourful avocado dressing, EVER. I can now 100% promise you that crispy spicy potatoes were meant to mingle with this addictively garlicky, lemon-y creamy avocado aioli. Seriously. From now on, I’m serving it with sweet potato fries, regular fries, every type of crispy potato, all the sandwiches and veggie burgers, raw vegetables, salads, and everything else imaginable. It is THAT good. Make it and love it, ASAP!
Happy Cooking, potato lovers!

These were fantastic! I didn't have Chipotle powder so I hand to use ancho chili powder (half measurement). The sauce was a hit. Our menu for July 4th consisted of hamburgers and chicken wings and my guests were using that sauce for everything. Great recipe!

What other potatoes would be a good substitute? I cant find this particular one near me.

Look for Creamer potatoes if you can find them! But if you can't find them, I'd go with any small, thin-skinned potatoes and cut them down to size if needed.

Due to the avocado it may discolour quickly (like guacamole or half and avocado). Top it with vegetable oil, and pour it off before using, or store it in the freezer for best results. Even if it does discolour, it will still be safe to eat for close 3-4 days.

This aioli sauce is soooo good! It really makes this dish and honestly any dish you put it on! I made a slight adjustment and roasted whole garlic cloves and used them in the aioli sauce. yummy!
