Last month it was my turn to host book club. I served Vegan Lasagna with Basil Cashew Cheeze (cuz it’s awesome), Caesar side salads and sliced baguettes with dipping oil. This was my first attempt …
I saw this image on How Does She’s Facebook page today and it couldn’t be more accurate. As far as I’m concerned, March can start going out like a lamb any day now. I’ve had …
Healthy comfort food at its best. An easy-to-prepare, allergy-friendly casserole that is loaded with protein. Vegan, gluten-free, soy-free.
When I told Hubs I was going to attempt to make gluten-free, vegan bread, he said, “Oh no.” That’s kind of how I felt about it, too. A GF/V (and xanthan-free, bonus!) bread that actually …
(Don’t let the length of this post/recipe scare you away. It really is easy and fairly quick to make.) I am so excited to share my new-found love of socca, the chickpea flour crêpe/pancake/flat bread …
I’ve been craving clam “chowdah” for weeks. The classic stuff is nowhere close to vegan, nor is it the least bit healthy (it usually involves bacon, butter, and heavy cream). I prefer my arteries UN-clogged, …
Not just another pretty salad! Not only is it vegan, gluten-free and delicious, but it’s also packed with fiber, protein and calcium. A healthy lunch option that will keep you feeling fuller longer.
I’m BACK!!! I wish I could say I was away on some exotic vacation, but sadly that is not the case. The truth is I’ve just been so busy that blogging had to take a …

Today is day #14 of my 28-day detox. Halfway there and going strong. I am learning so much, even growing my own sprouts! And I bought my very first ginger root. I had no idea …
One of my goals for the remainder of my detox (21 more days) is to eat only raw food as much as possible. Yesterday, I made this beautiful salad for lunch… And is was sooooooooooooo …
Yesterday, I had the privilege of hosting a baby shower for my dear friend, Amanda, who is due in January. As I mentioned in my last post, the baby’s gender is unknown (by choice), so …
Mom! Are you out there?! Are you reading this? Cuz this one’s for you. My mom makes a mean Spicy Rice & Beans dish that my dad absolutely loves (I think he could probably live …
I’m a sucker for thick, creamy soups. But I always paid the price with an upset stomach if I indulged in these soups before going vegan. Fortunately, the vegan versions give me no problems at …
I was very skeptical about this recipe. It just sounded too easy. Even the whole time I was making it, I was sure it was going to be a failure. I know, I’m such a …
I get so bored with the same old salads, don’t you? I decided that maybe a new dressing would fix my salad rut. My search led me to not only a delicious new dressing but …
What?! FAT-MELTING chili?! Yup. According to Dr. Oz… “Eating the right foods is crucial to weight loss. This vegetarian chili is hearty, tasty, and has all of the right fat-fighting ingredients to help you slim …
