Washington D.C. Area Vegetarian Restaurants

I love websites such as Happy Cow and Vegetarian Dining, but if I'm traveling to an unfamiliar area, it's hard to tell which restaurants will be nearby or en route to my destination. I decided to make it easier by plotting the restaurants on a Google Map:

Vegan Chocolate Ganache


3/4 cup soy milk, rice milk, or other non-dairy milk of choice
1/4 cup soy margarine
12 oz. vegan chocolate chips (or chopped vegan chocolate)
1/2 cup sweetener

In the top part of a double boiler, place the soy milk and margarine, and heat together until the margarine melts. Add sweetener and beat. Add the vegan chocolate chips, continue to cook while stirring constantly until the vegan chocolate chips have melted completely and the mixture is very smooth. Use the ganache, warm, as a glaze for cakes or use as a dip or coating for fruit or nuts, or when cool, use as a filling for cakes and desserts. Store any excess in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It can be reheated in the microwave as needed.
