This is a wonderfully simple soup. The flavors are delicate and warm. I think it would be a great soup for when you’re feeling a little under the weather, or when you just need a light but delicious soup. Roasting the carrots brings out their sweetness, and the ginger and thyme infused vegetable stock addsRead more
Do vegan baked goods kind of make you cringe? I’m always hesitant to label things vegan because I think mainstream society thinks of vegan food as extreme and unappealing, but I promise, this vegan Pumpkin Walnut Bread is yummy! I got the recipe from Joy the Baker, who I definitely trust to make a deliciousRead more
This salad is a bit different, it doesn’t have a whole lot going on, but it plays well with other dishes. I served it for a Tuesday night dinner with the most amazing Spiced Stuffed Acorn Squash, which needed a nice supporting character and I thought this Roasted Cabbage fit the bill nicely. This comesRead more
This stuffed squash was DELICIOUS! This will definitely be a regular recipe for me. It took quite a bit of searching to find an acorn squash recipe I liked the sound of. So many vegetarian squash recipes out there don’t sound like a main dish (in that they don’t have a lot of protein), soRead more
I made this dish for Tuesday’s School of Christian Living dinner, and it was SUPER popular! I have to admit I was really shocked by how much people liked this meal. I was taking a chance on the raw kale. I love salad and raw veggies, but I know they frequently feel like “health” foodRead more
These cookies are scrumptious. They’re kind of like coconut macaroons, with a chewy, crunchy, sweet nutty flavor. They definitely don’t taste vegan, and while they’re a little crumbly, they definitely hold their shape long enough to get in your mouth, what more could you need? I’m still figuring coconut oil out, but I imagine thatRead more
The enjoyable thing about the School of Christian Living’s vegan challenge is that it forces me to get creative and adapt recipes to work within the limits I have set. This pasta dish was loosely based off a recipe, but to make it vegan and fit in my price point, I took quite a fewRead more
Salads get a bad rap. They’re frequently thought of as diet or rabbit food. So I’m trying to make more of an effort to make salads exciting. And add things to add interest, color, texture and taste to what might otherwise be boring greens. Last Tuesday for SCL I made this grilled vegetable salad. YouRead more
Coming up with vegan desserts is a bit challenging. I really want to stick with ingredients that people might have on hand, so the idea of doing some fruit cobblers/crumbles seemed like a good place to start. When I saw this combination of pears and cranberries I was definitely intrigued. I could totally see howRead more
I made this bread last week for School of Christian Living. It turned out so well I think I’ll be making it again for communion on Sunday. While this did take a long time to rise, I think the biggest problem is that my house is pretty chilly in the winter and I don’t haveRead more
