One of the best things about this time of year is–of course–the food. In the last few weeks, I have scarfed down a variety of vegan delicacies like pumpkin cake, pumpkin pie, maple pecan pie bars, apple cinnamon rolls, date nut muffins, and Ben & Jerry’s caramel almond brittle vegan ice cream (SO yum!). People,…
Vegan Pumpkin Spice Bundt Cake
Have you ever been invited to a holiday potluck or party at work or school and wondered what to bring? Unless you are a writer for VegNews, a caretaker at a rescue farm, or a chef at a vegan diner in San Francisco, chances are that you will be surrounded by turkey roast, buttery mashed…
Vegan Creamy Garlic Mashed Potatoes
One of my favorite things about the holiday season is (of course) food. Obviously. There’s just something about creamy carbalicious mashed potatoes that gives me all the feels of the holiday season–even when I eat them in July. While my control-freak self usually takes over all the menu planning, cooking, and baking, there are a…
Vegan Maple Pecan Pie Bars
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…
Apple Spice Muffins with Maple Glaze
It’s been a long time, ya’all. Too long. How’ve you been?? I feel like this conversation should be taking place over O.J. and a vegan pastry–or, in the produce aisle of the grocery store (where people I haven’t seen in awhile always tend to find me on my I-don’t-feel-like-doing-my-hair and I-hope-I don’t-see-anyone-I-know days). Really though,…
Pumpkin Spice Scones + 1st Birthday!
One year ago, I was twiddling away on my computer while nursing my baby girl. She was so tiny then–only a few months old. I had an epiphany. I needed to do something–from home–to keep me busy, to give me purpose, and to motivate me. Vegan Yumminess was born that very night. It’s been an…
Vegan “Turkey” Roast with Stuffing
Thanksgiving is just around the corner (two weeks and two days, to be exact). And, if you’re anything like me, you’ve already started making menu plans. The only problem is that we are on a very tight budget this holiday season. My usual Thanksgiving favorites like Tofurky, Silk nog, and Tofutti frozen dessert may not make…
