Vegan soy-free recipes, including many gluten-free and low-carb options.
I’m always on the lookout for healthy cookie recipes, and was inspired by this one that I found on About.com. I’ve made these healthy breakfast cookies a couple times now, and have modified the recipe a bit each time to get it just right. These are not delicate cookies. They’re dense little fellows… I’m pretty … Read more
Vegan MoFo #18 – I saw these purple potatoes at the grocery store this week and couldn’t resist bringing some home with me. Look at that awesome color! I’m also going “low-carb” next week, and then 100% raw the following week, so I figured I’d go ahead and indulge in some big ol’ potatoes this … Read more
There’s just something about blueberries, lemon, and vanilla that tastes and smells so divine. It’s the perfect combination of sweet and tart. I’d wear this blueberry macadamia crumble as perfume if I could! Fruit crisps are some of my favorite desserts. They’re just as delicious and comforting as fruit pies, without all the effort of … Read more
Vegan MoFo #15 – I had some leftover fresh pineapple from my Peanut Soba Noodles w/ Pineapple meal, so I decided to use it for breakfast today. I love having oatmeal for breakfast, but recently, I’ve been using half oatmeal and half quinoa flakes. The quinoa flakes are an excellent source of protein, but they’re a … Read more
Vegan MoFo #14 – Keeping with my tropical theme this week, here’s a recipe for mango gazpacho, or should I say MMMango gazpacho! It’s slightly adapted from AllRecipes.com. I leave-out the jalapeno pepper and reduce the onion and garlic because I find them to be to strong in the original recipe (and I love garlic and onion)! … Read more
I met a cool girl named Tess at an Indian vegan cooking workshop (more on that later) a few months back, and after connecting on Facebook and seeing some of my food photos, she asked for my beetroot risotto recipe. I’ve been procrastinating on getting back to her, but then today she left me an … Read more
My amazing mom has been making this vegan minestrone soup for years and it’s one of my all-time favorites. I love the chunkiness of the vegetables and it’s really more of a stew than a soup. I’ve seen people who “hate vegetables” (!?!), ask for seconds of this soup. Seriously, it’s that good! The soup … Read more
I love the smell of fresh basil, and the best thing to make when you have a lot of fresh basil is… fresh pesto! It’s great on pasta and flat bread pizza, as well as stirred into lightly stir-fried veggies. It’s also awesome in minestrone soup, which I’ll share in my next post. For now, … Read more
I cut this recipe from Vegetarian Times magazine about 10 years ago (am I really this old?!) and it sat untried in my recipe binder until I finally got around to “veganizing” it this year. I’ve since made it a few times because it’s just so delicious and I can freeze half the batch, which … Read more
I found this vegan Chana Masala recipe on Vegweb.com a few years ago and I probably make it at least once a month. It’s not super authentic, but it’s quick, easy, and tastes great. I love this vegan Chana Masala recipe because it satisfies my 3 basic requirements for weekday meals: It’s quick to prepare … Read more
