Fragrant Vanilla Cake

Tahini Lemon Broccoli Pasta

I know a lot of people are ordering takeout with the whole Coronavirus going on, but that hasn’t been the case with me.  We usually do takeout instead of delivery if we are going to do something like that, but only for a special occasion like my Mom’s birthday coming up, since we can’t go […]

Vegan Peanut Butter Chocolate Eggs

I used to get excited about Easter candy growing up.  Those pretty pastel wrappers, and getting to enjoy things I didn’t the rest of the year like Robin’s Eggs malted milk balls, raspberry cream eggs, and Reese’s peanut butter eggs.  I wasn’t a big fan of those big jelly beans though, they had a weird […]

Vegan Pistachio Lemon White Chocolate Chunk Cookies

This whole social distancing thing isn’t so bad for an introvert like me.  I can still do most of the activities I normally do, like going for bike rides, walks and runs outside, doing art like painting at home, and of course baking things.  As long as I can still be close to my family […]

Classic Vegan Carrot Cake

Spring is finally here!  Well, calendar wise at least, it is still a bit chilly but there are glimpses of it with the pussy willows popping out along the pond, and a few plants starting to sprout out of the ground, plus of course the longer days.  After winter I am all about anything over […]

Vegan Maple Pecan French Toast Casserole 

I always loved french toast growing up.  Even though it is something that is supposed to be made with leftover stale dry bread, I always thought it was special because I didn’t get to have it often. Yet, we always had the ingredients on hand. I thought that when I went vegan it would be […]

Vegan Matcha Chocolate Bars with Cacao Nibs

St. Patrick’s Day is tomorrow, and although it doesn’t feel so much like it this year due to the virus going around and events being cancelled, I still like to enjoy some festive stuff at home so I made some green chocolate bars!  I like to try to stay positive.  And even if we can’t […]

Grandma’s Banana Bread Veganized

My Mom made the best banana bread when I was little. It was my Great Grandma’s recipe, passed down to my Grandma, then to my Mom.  Written out on a recipe card, from a time long before we could look up recipes online. I have tried many different kinds, we often had some at church […]

Vegan Peppermint Marble Cake

St. Patrick’s day is less than 2 weeks away, so it is the perfect time to make all things green.  Especially fun desserts.  Cakes are my favorite.  So even though I made a green cheesecake last week, I decided to make another different green cake this week.  Last year I made a peppermint vanilla cake […]

Vegan Dark Chocolate Orange Brownies

I have been loving the combination of chocolate and orange lately.  I recently made some Chocolate Orange Hazelnut Cupcakes and they were so good, so I wanted more of that chocolate orange flavor combo. I was in the mood for some brownie baking last weekend, so it seemed like the perfect time to use it […]

Vegan Grasshopper Cheesecake

     When I was a kid, my Mom and I used to go to this local diner that had the best grasshopper malts.  I loved those things.  Smooth peppermint ice cream base, with gooey chocolate fudge, it was totally heavenly!  So sometimes now, I like to create desserts with those same flavors.  I have […]
