Hello Friends! I just had to stop by and drop off this amazing, vegan gravy recipe. It’s become somewhat of a problem in our house. My husband, who is not vegan, even loves it. He has made a habit of cooking up an enormous pile of air fryer French fries and using this gravy as…
I’ve thought about making this dish for quite some time. I love the play on words, and I also think the combination of a southwest, Tex Mex dish would pair well with creamy spaghetti. Everyone loves my traditional baked spaghetti, and my creamy vegan Crock Pot baked spaghetti, so I figured I’d make up a…
We like to make Italian Dunkers for quick lunches, appetizers, and as a side dish to a pasta meal. For years I’ve made them the traditional way (in the oven), with a hearty meat sauce (now I use Beyond Meat or a can of well-drained lentils.) But there’s an even faster and easier way if…
Are you ready for Saint Patrick’s Day? Do you do anything special to celebrate? For years I made Reubens and Rachels, and then I went vegan and made tempeh Reubens, last year I made Rachels using Tofurkey, which was actually really good, but this year I wanted to try something a little different and decided…
This potato salad is hearty and satisfying and could definitely stand alone as lunch or dinner. Isn’t it pretty? It has all of the amazing flavors of traditional Greek salad, but I added oven roasted baby potatoes and tofu “feta” for protein. You could use macaroni in place of the potatoes if you wish. It’s…
Empty tomb rolls, also called resurrection rolls, are a fun way to teach children the story of Jesus’ burial and resurrection at Easter time. Throughout the baking process the marshmallow that is placed in the center of the roll disappears, leaving the roll like an empty tomb. Pretty neat, huh? Simplify the Easter story for…
An air fryer is a nearly perfect little appliance to have in your kitchen when you’re in a hurry. I made up this big, saucy, zesty Italian calzone for my lunch today using leftover pizza sauce, various pizza toppings, cheese, garlic butter, and Pillsbury Grands crescent roll dough. You can make a big calzone for…
By now we’ve all seen the spiralized veggies that are meant to impersonate noodles, right? The first time I tried the zucchini “spaghetti” it was soggy and swimming in zucchini juice. Hmmmm. Not exactly the substitute I was looking for. After some experimenting I found that air frying the noodles removed the excess juice and…
Thinking it might be time to slim down for summer? Too much baking (and over eating) this past winter? You’re not alone. I keep seeing news stories about how this past year has caused a lot of people to become lethargic, complacent, and, let’s face it, a little bit over weight. No judgment here. I’ve…
With so many Irish colcannon recipes out there to choose from, I thought you’d enjoy this one because it’s slightly different. Everyone seems to love the addition of leeks and garlic because they add so much flavor and depth to the dish. Cashew cream (or vegan cream cheese) adds additional richness to this colcannon. So…
