I was craving something really lemony and rich to go with my tea yesterday so I made one of these easy, lemon drizzle cakes. Italians are known for their citrusy olive oil cakes, and this one is absolutely gorgeous. So delicious, with minimal ingredients. It’s not too terribly sweet, and the tart lemon drizzle balances…
So, ya know that vegan steak I made? It’s REALLY good made into sandwiches. I slathered some vegan mayo mixed with a little horseradish on a French roll, and piled it high with saucy vegan steak chunks, vegan cheese, and shredded lettuce. I know it’s kind of silly to share a blog post for how…
It’s that time of year again! Everyone is headed outside to the grill to cook up dinner. If you’re vegan there’s no need to feel left out. With delicious choices like Beyond Burgers, Beyond Bratwurst, Beyond Italian Sausage, polenta, homemade veggie burgers, grill-wok veggies, big portobello mushroom caps, tofu, veggie kabobs, and now… vegan steak,…
Monte Cristo sandwiches are something I start obsessively craving from time to time. Since going vegan I have been making this version and they’re every bit as good as the original. My smoky tofu bacon tastes a lot like canadian bacon or ham. The Chao cheese is creamy and delicious, and the hickory smoked Tofurky…
Cinnamon apples are such a delicious, versatile dish. You can enjoy them on pancakes or waffles for breakfast or brunch, as a sweet accompaniment to a savory tofu scramble or casserole, tucked inside a pie or cobbler, or as a topping for seitan cutlets, vegan ham, or even ice cream. How will you use yours?…
This banana French toast is traditionally called Banana Rabanada, and in Brazil it’s enjoyed around Christmas time. It’s very easy to make and it’s amazing served as breakfast, brunch, or dessert. I can’t imagine waiting until one time of year to eat this now that I’ve had it. SO good! I love that I have…
Chia shakes and smoothies are my new obsession. Here’s a simple, delicious, one with only a few ingredients. It’s so refreshing and healthy and perfect for those mornings when you’re in a hurry, or those afternoons when you need a quick snack. Don’t be tempted to add a bunch of other stuff to it. It’s…
I’ve taken chickpea salad to the next level. This is perfect for those days when you’re craving a really good sandwich and are perhaps missing the days when you ate tuna salad and chicken salad. Although I find the idea of eating animals revolting now, I completely understand the nostalgia and emotions connected to the…
Here’s a salad that makes me happy! The colors, textures, and flavors are gorgeous. And that banana dressing is going to knock your socks off. This is my vegan riff on an old favorite. This version is healthier and so much better, in my opinion. You can prepare your tofu triangles any way you like.…
We love some sort of bread or biscuits with our soups, stews, and chilis. Biscuits are probably our first choice because they’re so versatile and easy to prepare. You can whip up a batch in no time, and choose a flavor that will perfectly accompany whatever you are eating. We had these with chili and…
