Vegan Belgium Waffles

I guess I have had breakfast food on the brain… I’m totally on a roll with breakfast recipes lately. In fact next week will probably be a breakfast recipe as well. I’m currently thinking up a coffee cake recipe, fingers crossed it will pass the bake test. Traditional Belgium waffles have a light batter, and…

Vegetable Medley Breakfast Bake

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas! I sure did. Ate SO much good food, spent lots of time with family, and stayed up way too late playing Cards Against Humanity with my husband, brother, sister in law, and sister in law’s sister. If you have never played that game you should try it….

Vegan Stuffed French Toast Bake

Early Christmas morning French toast has recently (about 10 years ago) become a tradition in my family. In fact its one that I started at around the age of fifteen. The nerdy little baker that I was would wake up Christmas morning before any of my family and prepare a French toast bake that was…

Vegan Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies

Christmas is just a little over a week away. I still haven’t finished my Christmas shopping, nor have I wrapped a single present… I did however find the time to make this amazing cookie recipe for your Christmas cookie exchange. I hope your holiday preparation is going way better than mine! The chocolate chip cookie…

Spicy Artichoke Bites (Vegan)

Is it just me or is Christmas creeping up faster than normal? I haven’t done ANY shopping for gifts yet!!! Sorry. Freaking out just a little. Fingers crossed I get all or most of my shopping done this weekend. Simple, tasty, slightly spicy, and addictive… are just a few words I would use to describe…

Vegan Chinese Chews

I love December, because Christmas, Why else? The lights, decorations, shopping, Christmas movies (National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation is my favorite!), spending time with family, but most of all the FOOD. One of my family’s traditions is to make Chinese Chews (except they call them Charleston Chews because they grew up in Charleston, South Carolina…) every…

Spanish Rice (Vegan, GF)

I kind of skipped over Thanksgiving themed food… I promise I will make it up to all of you by posting some great Christmas recipes but in the meantime here is my most favorite rice recipe! This rice pairs great with enchiladas, fajitas, tacos, and beans. My favorite simple meal is this Spanish rice with…

Vegan Potato Chowder with Smoky Mushroom Bacon

In my opinion when it’s chilly enough to wear a sweater it’s time for delicious soups. This Vegan Potato Chowder soup only takes about 30 minutes to make, the Smoky Mushroom Bacon takes a little longer by about 20-3o minutes, but it is super easy to prepare the mushrooms so simply pop them in the…

Skillet Potato Tacos

So I mentioned that my  Vegan Blueberry Banana Bread was the first recipe I created after going vegan; I guess that would make these Skillet Potato Tacos the second (and I’ve totally lost count after those).  I’ve been making these often for over two years now and never made a point to write it down,…

Blackberry Banana Bread (Vegan, GF, Refined Sugar free)

If you haven’t already noticed, one of my favorite things to do is make different variations of banana bread. Here is my latest and greatest; Vegan, Gluten-free, and refined sugar free Blackberry Banana Bread. Banana bread is top on my favorite sweet treats list, not only because it is delicious but because I always tend…

Classic Chickpea Salad

I already had several other recipes lined up to share with all of you before testing/ photographing this one, but I am so excited about this recipe (because it is SO delicious) that I bumped it to the front of my line-up. Crunch of celery, sharp taste of green onion, sweet burst from the grapes……

Ooey-Gooey Vegan Lemon Bars

When I think of lemon bars I think of a crisp cookie like crust and a rich, gooey, sweet, lemony filling. That was my blue print for this recipe, and I am super happy with the results I achieved. Not only are these Ooey-gooey Lemon Bars vegan but they are also nut-free, and soy-free! When…
