With Thanksgiving and the holiday season quickly approaching, it’s high time for a quick and easy vegan dessert recipe. They’re hard to come by, ya know? I recently started a new job. Before having kids, I was one of those coworkers that loved to bring home-baked goodies in for everyone to eat on the job. Unfortunately (or…
Carob Peanut Butter Energy Bites
It’s springtime, you guys!! Well, sorta, anyway. Way up north, we still have plenty of snow–more than enough to try out our new cross country skis. We caught a fabulous end-of-season sale at a local ski shop and got a steal of a deal on new boots, skis, and poles for both of us. The…
Vegan Creamy Kale and Zucchini Pasta
Before we do anything else, can I just say that I love pasta? And garlic? And zucchini? Phew! Now that I’ve gotten that off of my chest, we can move on to more serious topics. A little over a year ago, I posted a recipe for vegan alfredo sauce. It was delightfully delicious, but a…
Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies
It’s September 16th, and we’re long overdue for some vegan sweetness. In a last ditch effort to lose these last several stubborn pounds of baby weight, I’ve been trying to avoid sweets (sorta). And then there are cookies–peanut butter cookies, at that. I love peanut butter, and when the natural stuff was only 99 cents a…
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…
Tangy Black Bean Soup
Sometimes ya just need a big ol’ bowl of soup. Today is one of those days. It’s been raining for hours, and I love it. Unlike usual Tennessee summers, ours has been a very dry one. I think our last good rain was over a week ago. (In case you’re wondering, that isn’t very much…
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,…
