This was the first New Year's Eve (as an adult) that I didn't go to out to eat for dinner. Life with a 2 year old really DOES change things! But even though we opted to stay home this New Year's, there are still plenty of ways to have fun and create traditions! One thing we did (which I could see becoming a tradition) was watch home videos from the past year. It was fun and so special to show my … [Read more...]
Green Mimosa (Vegan & Gluten Free)
Happy New Year! So... it's the first weekend of the New Year and my husband so sweetly made me my favorite fresh green juice. We also had leftover champagne (well it was techncially organic Prosecco but it was so dry it tasted more like champagne to me. Editors note: I like Prosecco or less 'brut' bubbly better!) :) I'm also a super busy mompreneur, prepping for a call tomorrow so I really … [Read more...]

Baked Sweet Potato Latkes (Vegan and Gluten Free)
I first made this recipe years ago when I was living in the East Village in NYC and dating my (now) husband. He thought they were amazing, and I guess so did the Los Angeles Jewish Federation since they published my recipe that year too! :) I love traditions, and the taste of traditional recipes. What I don't always love is how full of 'empty' calories and missing nutrients that traditional … [Read more...]
Almond Butter Brownies (V & GF)
This is one of my most popular recipes! I can't think of anything else I make that SO many people have tried (and loved). I've brought it to pot-lucks, gathering, holiday parties, given it as gifts and even shipped in the mail cross-country! I knew this was a hit when my father-in-law (a true meat-and-potatoes guy) raved about them! This recipe is that it's easy and fast; you just toss some … [Read more...]
Vegan Veggie Loaf (V & GF)
Last week, I had Thanksgiving Dinner at one of my besties'. We had a vegan Thanksgiving, and for the entrée... she made a lentil veggie loaf! It was super tasty (although it was a bit spicier than we like) and it brought back a flood of memories for me! I've had veggie loaves before, I tried an Amy's Organic frozen entree and had one at Real Food Daily (a vegan restaurant in LA). I loved both, … [Read more...]
Pumpkin Pie (Vegan & Gluten Free)
I LOVE pumpkin pie (um.... ok, if you are following me and reading my blog, you know I love pumpkin anything!) and look forward to it every November! It's my favorite Thanksgiving dessert. Sometimes it's comforting to have a traditional favorite at a meal and not invent/reinvent new dishes every time! (don't worry.. I'm going to be making my pumpkin almond brownies too!) Having traditional AND new … [Read more...]
