When I was a kid, my absolute favorite lunch was fried tofu sandwiches–which basically consisted of scrambled tofu (kind of like the version used in these breakfast burritos), a homemade vegan mayonnaise (my dad made a variety from potato flour back then, because, hello, there was no such thing as store-bought vegan mayo in the…
Vegan Broccoli Burgers
I know what you’re thinking: “Broccoli?? In a burger??” I know. For reals though, this stuff is yummy. It all started a few weeks ago when my hubby (who is forever trying to bulk up his 6’5″ frame) was telling me all about how broccoli is full of protein. Presto! That’s when the idea popped into…
Vegan Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
There’s something about grilled cheese sandwiches that brings back memories of child-like wonder and care-free kiddishness. What kid doesn’t love grilled cheese? I’m all about eating those crazy healthy vegan super-power-bowl meals filled with strange ingredients that aren’t exactly kid-friendly…or even non-vegan friendly. And, I’m all for introducing kids to a variety of exotic fruits…
Vegan Walnut Burgers
It’s been way too long since I’ve posted a recipe. But I have an excuse: I’ve been getting quite large, ya’all. At 34 weeks preggo, nesting mode is in full swing. That means I’ve been cleaning, organizing, planning, and pretty much putting the rest of my life on hold–including making and photographing new recipes,…
Burmese Chickpea Tofu “Egg” Salad
I tried something new this week. Burmese chickpea tofu. It looks like this: And you can find a recipe for it here. It isn’t a soy-based tofu, but for this recipe, that’s a good thing. If you’ve ever had a soy-based tofu “egg” salad sandwich, you know what I mean. The texture–it just isn’t quite…
Easy Vegan Chicken Salad
Guess what? Today is my first post for the Vegan Month of Food 2013! I know…I’m a few days late. Life has been….crazy. That’s my excuse. Lately I’ve been doing a lot of thinking, planning, more thinking and planning, and job hunting. Yep. I’m likely going to be picking up a part-time job as nurse…
Crazy Veggie Burgers
This week has been an exciting one. First, I finally posted my caramel apple pull-apart bread, after unexpectedly taking a week (or more? :p ) off for family vacation. Then, I landed my first little work-from-home job (besides this blog). It’s not a big, in-your-face, making-6-digits (far from it, actually) kind of job, but it’s…
Vegan Tofu Quinoa Patties
I don’t know what it is about sandwiches, but I love ’em. Back when I worked long hours at the hospital, Jonathan made the most amazing sandwiches to go in our lunches. Knowing that I would soon sink my fangs into a big juicy sandwich like this is what kept me going. (By the way,…
