Vegan Caramelized Onion Mac and Cheese
As I was chopping some super strong onions at work and trying not to cry as my eyes burned I began to think about how it is funny you never become immune to them, even when you are someone like me who chops them just about every day. I also started to think about how […]
Vegan Key Lime Curd Bars
Key lime pie and all things tart citrus have always been favorites in my family. When I was little, my Mom and I would often buy truffles at a counter in a department store in the Mall, and it was usually the key lime flavored ones. One time the clerk said that she didn’t know […]
CBD Dark Chocolate Mint Bark
I take CBD oil every day to fight inflammation and stress, usually in oil form, but it is so much more fun being able to enjoy it in dessert form, specifically in chocolate form. I enjoy dark chocolate just about every day, so I figure, why not add my CBD oil to my treats sometimes? […]
Vegan Maple Cinnamon Rolls
Nothing beats the aroma of freshly baked cinnamon rolls. It is such a happy smell, and one can not possibly be in a bad mood when exposed to the heavenly scent! At least I can’t. I have always loved them, since I was a little kid. I used to like it when my Mom made […]
Vegan Strawberry Cream Cheese
My Mom recently wanted me to try some vegan strawberry cream cheese that she had bought, because it was from a brand that had really good vegan ricotta that we both liked. I tried the cream cheese, but I thought it was just ok. It had kind of a weird aftertaste, and not enough strawberry […]
Vegan Spicedoodles
Snickerdoodles are a fairly common cookie, but I actually had never tried one until I was a senior in high school. I remember the first time I had one, it was at a coffee shop at a ski lodge with my friend, and she asked me if I wanted to split one with her since […]
Vegan Marble Cupcakes
When I was a kid, marble cupcakes were always my favorite. I mean, you get the best of both worlds, chocolate and vanilla together! Also, they felt kind of special, because you usually would only get them at celebrations or birthdays! The weird thing is though, I have not really made many marble cakes since […]
Vegan Chickpea Blondies
I think I use chickpeas in more recipes than any other bean. I am always making hummus, and salads with chickpeas and I even add them to cheesecake recipes instead of cashews as a nut free version. I recently made black bean brownies, so I figured why not make chickpea blondies?! I make so many […]
Summer Basil Pesto Pasta
When you are gifted a bag of pine nuts and a large bunch of basil, you make pesto! Or, at least that is the way I think. That is just what happened last week, and I had some whole wheat spaghetti on hand so it was perfect! Back in the day when I first got […]
Vegan Maple Pecan Brownie Sundaes
A lot of restaurants have brownie sundaes on their menu. I have seen other people order them, but I have never actually had one of my own. One of the restaurants I went to this year for my Birthday had a brownie sundae that came free if it was your birthday, but it wasn’t vegan […]
Oil Free Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
I am often asked to create oil free recipes so I have been working on some lately, and one of the first things that I chose to make was chocolate chip cookies. I mean, chocolate chip cookies are pretty standard when it comes to classic recipes. I know they were certainly one of my favorites […]
