Black Beans: Vegan Two Ways
If you’re anything like me, you always have a bag or two (okay, maybe three) of dry beans in your pantry. Dry beans are, in my opinion, a vegan staple and people of all diets should always have them on hand. My husband on the other hand, gets a little antsy about things being the…

Spiced Chickpea & Tofu Steak Bowl
If you haven’t learned by now that I am addicted to flavors of the Asian continent, then you haven’t been paying attention. There are so many different flavor profiles, cuisines, spices and dishes to try that I worry I won’t get through them all before I die. That’s how much I love them. So when I’m…

Vegans On Holiday: Hunedoara, Alba Iulia, Deva & Sighisoara (Romania)
One of my favorite things, aside from food, is traveling. In every place I have ever lived, I have done some serious exploring of the local and near-local sights. Of course I never get to see everything but I get to see a lot so I won’t complain. Much. Recently the Hubs and I took…

Mushroom Gyro Bowl & Vegan Yogurt Sauce
One of my favorite things to eat as a teenager was a gyro. There was this great little shop within walking distance of our house that sold fried catfish, barbecue chicken and gyros…mostly. Or maybe that’s all I remember because that’s mostly what I ordered. Every. Single. Time. Recently I was watching a cooking show…

Smoky Tofu Scramble Sandwich
In addition to my love of potatoes and Asian noodle dishes, I sometimes get a hankering for a sandwich. Nothing in particular just some really good stuff between some amazing bread. Or some not so amazing bread. My go to sandwich is lettuce, tomato, cucumber and sprouts with various sauces and condiments. In a pinch,…
