Vegan oat recipes, including many gluten-free and low-carb options.
I’ve been making my Healthy Breakfast Cookies every week since moving into our new apartment. They’re healthy little bites of goodness – the perfect little snack to pack up when we’re on the go. But I’ve been using chocolate chips instead of raisins lately, and that little tweak inspired me to modify my Almost Raw … Read more
I’m not really someone who craves sweets, but last week, I got a craving that I just couldn’t shake. In particular, I was craving something coconut-y, but didn’t want to go to the effort of making macaroons or cookies. Ideally, it would be healthy and wouldn’t require turning on the oven. Thankfully, I had a … Read more
These are the chocolate chip cookies that my mom made for me growing up – and it’s also one of the first recipes that I ever veganized, waaaaay back in high school. At the time, I susbstituted vegan margarine for the butter, and because the recipe didn’t call for any milk or eggs, it was … Read more
All my friends and family back home in Ottawa and Toronto have been saying how warm it’s been there lately. I’ll be there in a couple weeks myself and I really hope that the weather holds-up. I’m especially looking forward to those long hot summer evenings. Sydney has amazing weather all year round, but the … Read more
This vegan rhubarb crumble and ginger ice cream recipe is another one that originated from the LCBO’s Food & Wine magazine. I earmarked the recipe a while ago in the hopes of eventually veganizing it, and I’m really happy that I finally got around to doing it last week. The ginger ice cream nicely compliments … Read more
As you may have read in my Roasted Fresh Tomato Soup post, I’ve been going a little overboard at the farmers’ market lately. I never used to make the effort to get up early and go to farmer’s markets, but I have to say that it has since become something that I really look forward … Read more
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
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
This vegan chocolate truffle torte is the most luxurious dessert that I make. It’s definitely not an everyday dessert, but something that I reserve for special occasions a few times a year. It easily holds-up to any non-vegan dessert served at fancy restaurants. It’s extremely rich, so you only need to serve a small piece, and … Read more
These caramel apple muffins are one of my favorite vegan muffin recipes. The crumbly, sugary topping makes them taste like gooey caramel apples — minus the sticky fingers and face! You could leave out the topping to make these a bit healthier, but it really adds a great taste and texture to these muffins. Go … Read more
