Irish Soda Bread… Next to scones, this is one of my ultimate comfort foods (I admit, I love carbs…). Warm, moist, crusty and lightly sweet, it’s perfect by itself or with your favorite jam. Seriously you guys – it’s SO good! Let’s get started, shall we?…
Garden Fresh Salsa
Our tomato plants have been producing really well this year, which means that we’ve been eating tomatoes in and on almost everything. Add that to my family’s long-time love of salsa, and you can come up with some pretty yummy combinations… Such as this Garden Fresh Salsa!…
Quinoa Tofu Breakfast Scramble
Allow me to introduce my latest food obsession: Quinoa.
Yes, it’s yummy. But the best part? There are 8 grams of protein in each cup! Plus, it is a complete protein, which means that it includes all of the nine essential amino acids the body needs. That is just the kind of food that I want to be including in my diet! So I set out to discover different ways to work it into our meals….
Peach Cobbler Pancakes
Happy September, everyone! We’re just about to the end of summer and peach season (which means fall and apple season is right around the corner! Yay!), but today I have a recipe using any fresh peaches you still have, or a jar of those yummy peaches you canned this summer. 😉 Enter Peach Cobbler Pancakes. Yum….
BEST Vegan Sunflower Seed Pesto
I love summer. Not only because of the warm sunny days, but mostly because of all the yummy, fresh produce coming straight from the garden. Which brings me to my next point… I LOVE basil. Fresh, fragrant basil. And what better way to use basil than in this sunflower seed pesto?? …
Vegan Lemon Cupcakes with Buttercream Frosting
They say that desperation is the mother of invention, and I can attest to the truth of that statement. A few months ago, a friend asked me to bake the cake for her wedding [read: over 250 cupcakes, plus a cake]. Lemon was one of the three flavors she requested. I had never made a lemon cake before, and couldn’t find one online that I liked… So what’s a girl to do? Create her own recipe, of course!…
Easy Canned Peaches
It’s peach season you guys!! And I’ve been up to my eyeballs in them all week. 😉 Next year, will someone please remind me that 3 bushels it too many to can singlehandedly? But aside from the sticky mess in the kitchen, I’ll be so thankful for them come winter time.
I decided to step away from my typical recipe post, to do a DIY post for canned peaches! It really is simple, and I know you will love it just as much as I do (maybe more, if you actually have air conditioning in your house… but I digress)….
Blueberry Scones
I love scones. Warm, crumbly, moist, buttery scones. However, I used to think every scone was dry and hard. Thankfully, I quickly learned that I had a preconceived idea that was very wrong. If made right, scones are absolutely delicious. And these blueberry scones are no exception!…
Flax Egg
When I first began cooking plant-based, I was sad when I realized that a lot of my favorite recipes required eggs. I knew how to replace the milk and butter, but what about the eggs? I was so excited when I learned about what has become my favorite substitute: the flax egg.
…
Creamy Vegan Potato Salad
I hope you’re all enjoying the long, warm summer days. Those of us in the northern half of the States certainly are (I’m in denial that snow is only a few months away). I love summer foods – salads, burgers, and cold, sweet treats. So I’m back this week to share another favorite with you! Four words: Creamy Vegan Potato Salad….
