Cinnamon Walnut Swirl Challah

A new twist on breakfast, if you will. I’ve worked and re-worked this recipe to create a delicious vegan version of a traditional favorite bread, once again made possible by the magic of aquafaba (chickpea brine) in place of eggs. Check out my last recipe for Vegan Madeleines for a more detailed …

Vegan Madeleines

This is huge. For those of you who haven’t heard the buzz yet, recently a French chef discovered an amazing replacement for eggs in baked goods, and it’s pretty mind-blowing. A man by the name of Goose Wohlt introduced the idea to vegan social media, and it has initiated an international …

Vegetable Lentil Stew

Hello again. After a long period when my workload left me with very little free time for blogging, my schedule has opened up and is allowing me more time for my favorite kitchen projects. In the meantime, my husband and I have moved from the desert landscape of Las Vegas back to …

Summer Oatmeal, 3 Ways

I’m not sure that many people know how easy it is to make a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast. You can be enjoying a delicious bowl of whole, rolled oats – not the instant variety – in as little as ten minutes, from measuring to serving. High in protein, dairy free yet …

Roasted Garlic & Bell Pepper Hummus

Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins

Peanut butter, bananas and chocolate. Really, how could you go wrong with a combination like that? These muffins are nutritious, with a goodly amount of protein and a very modest amount of sugar (coconut palm sugar doesn’t spike insulin levels the way refined sugar does – an added bonus), making them …

Banana Blueberry Oatmeal Breakfast Bars

Make a batch of these bars over the weekend and have them on hand for the rest of the week. They make a lovely breakfast-on-the-go, and the combination of oats, almonds, oat bran, coconut flour, flax seed, hemp seed and amaranth means that these little bars are not only filling, …

Moong Dal Vegetable Curry

If this dish were on a restaurant menu, it might read something like this: Split mung beans with eggplant, broccolini, cremini mushrooms, baby spinach and sweet cranberries in a light, creamy curry sauce, served over steamed basmati rice. Sounds fancy that way, doesn’t it? This recipe has a really diverse …
