Orecchiette with Vegan Merguez & Kalettes
One of the things I love about eating vegan is that when you’re having a case of the hungrys, pasta is a quick and easy option, that also lets you kind of pig out…if you want. Since you’re not adding high fat/calorie meat and cheese to your lasagna or spaghetti, you can get really creative…

Vegan Lasagna…with Ricotta!!!
One of the few things I did miss about going vegan was lasagna without ricotta cheese which is strange because it is the ONLY time I like the stuff, and because I didn’t miss any other cheese products. Then I found a recipe for vegan ricotta. My first instinct was gross because personally, I don’t…

Cheesy Vegan Mac & Healthy Leftovers
One of the misconceptions that persists about vegans is that we are SUPER healthy since all we can eat are fruits and vegetables. First of all, I WISH!!!

Creamy Vegan Romesco & Whole Wheat Pasta
For as long as I’ve been old enough to worry about things like weight and fitness and beauty and health, there has always been one constant diet “truism” that I loathe. No or low carb. I admit it, I am a carb-a-holic. Despite that I managed to lose 25kg in 2018 which means that I…

Black Beans Vegan & Two Ways
Beans, I’ve learned, are a pretty controversial food when they don’t need to be. Beans are an excellent source of protein and fiber, and beans are also incredibly inexpensive which means you get a lot of meal for your buck. We all (mostly??) have our favorite beans, mine include black beans and garbanzo beans because…

Spicy Broccoli & Tofu Noodles
One of my favorite things is noodles. Asian style noodles. I love them all from the delicious buckwheat taste of soba noodles to rice noodles (thick or thin) and of course, ramen. But I also adore Udon noodles, glass noodles, wok noodles and all the undiscovered noodles out there waiting for me. I. Love. Them.…

Typical Vegan Fare…At My House
Waaaaaay back in the day, when I spent about two weeks in high school as a vegetarian I toyed with the idea of going vegan. And by toyed, I mean that I wrote endlessly for those two months in my journal with the Bush sticker on the front about the terrible living conditions of cows…

Rotini Alla Puttanesca…Vegan Style
In addition to my love of potatoes, which are seriously MY jam, I have a deep and abiding love for pasta dishes. When my husband and I made the decision individually to make the switch to a plant based diet, the only thing I wasn’t concerned about was how to veganize my favorite pasta recipes.…

Vegan Bolognese…Plus an excuse to drink wine!
As you know, we recently made a trip to Würzburg, Germany and ate a tons of good vegan food. But what you may not know is that this place is a pretty respectable wine region, known for the cute little decanter-style bottles, called Bocksbeutel. And like any good tourist, I purchased more than one bottle. I’m a…
