Vanilla Gourmet Parade and Vanilla Cooking Expanded Compatibility

Adds compatibility for Vanilla Cooking Expanded to Vanilla Gourmet Parade.
Additionally, adds optional compatibility for Vanilla Plants Expanded (and More Plants) as well KYD Baked Bread!
(And allows you to use even MORE cheeses added by Vanilla Genetics Expanded!)


For Vanilla Gourmet Parade:
-Base: Replaces "rice/corn" to flour from VCE where appropriate!
-Base: Fixes much of the funky MTL in all the items!
-Optional: Makes many recipes use specifically real life applicable ingredients if you have Vanilla Plants Expanded (and More Plants), or Baked Bread installed! Meatballs will use bread for breadcrumbs, croquettes will use carrots and peas, etc! (Using baked bread in recipes also reduces the meal's cooking time!)
-Optional: idk my bff Jill?

For Erin's Japanese Cuisine:
-Optional: Removes duplicate recipes from Erin's mod that exist in VGP.


This makes many recipes a bit more "demanding" (more ingredients to gather) while still keeping it as balanced as possible.

As suggested by Vanilla Cooking Expanded, the Common Sense mod will help reduce gathering time!

• This is just an XML patch, which seeks to flesh out some recipes with additions of VCE/VPE/Baked Bread items and give (some) of said items more use in game with VGP. Largely, this was a personal beef for myself seeing rice/corn being used as flour when I had VCE installed.
  
• It DOES make some recipes more "demanding", which DOES drive away from the creator's original "quick and easy" pure Vanilla aesthetic. However, being both a food lover, and a Vanilla Expanded enjoyer I wanted to see these two mesh! So here we are!
  
• I tried to keep everything in balance in terms of sheer "nutrition" input/output, but let me know if anything feels off. Lavish meals are meant to be wasteful though, so I was less strict about keeping things on a 1:1 there.
  
• "Optional" means that if you have the mods installed, you'll have some of the ingredients from its mod available to use in VGP! If not, the recipes fall back to VGP defaults, or slightly modified recipes depending on what IS installed!
  
• Please forgive my awful graphic design on the thumbnail lol

As usual, please report any bugs or issues you may find in the comments or in the dedicated bug reporting thread!
Any additional ideas regarding VCE/VGP balancing/tweaks specifically, are welcome if you have them! (E.g.: requiring specific vegetables, items, etc). I can't promise support for other mods though, as I currently only run with the Vanilla Expanded series.
