After my hike at Sunrise yesterday I headed downhill to White River. I wanted somewhere peaceful to have lunch so I picked the climbers parking lot/day use/picnic area outside of the car campground.

Another recipe re-do! This recipe caught my eyes for an easy vegan/vegetarian friendly meal for two. Easy to make at home and easier to make on the trail. Only I changed it a bit.
