Every year someone asks me what vegans eat for Thanksgiving! First of all, just about every side and dessert is or can be made plant based (and that's the best part anyway, right?!) But I can understand the question. I can't exactly veganize a turkey! My family and I also aren't big fans of processed foods, including Tofurky or other highly processed grocery store items claiming to be a vegan … [Read more...]
Plant-based Thanksgiving Menu
We are excited to have our first Thanksgiving in our new home! We already adopted our annual turkey. This year the girls picked Alexandra! (Last year it was Anna & Elsa, the year before that it was Bowie, and before that Sandy…. I bet you didn't know I had such a big family! LOTS of turkeys! :)- ) I just finished putting together my Holiday Gift Guide, my girls are going to help me make … [Read more...]
Miso Glazed Brussels Sprouts
My husband and I have a long-running joke. We'll be eating at a restaurant (or since the pandemic, dining on take-out at home) and I will take a bite of something and I'll idly ask him "You know what version of [some dish] is my favorite?" And he'll answer "yours?" YEP! :) With a few notable exceptions, I usually prefer my own cooking to stuff we get out. I use less salt, sugar and oil than … [Read more...]
Skull Pasta (Vegan & GF)
This spooky spaghetti is something of a tradition in our house for All Hallow's Eve. (My kids always request my vegan hot dog mummies for Halloween dinner!) It's so easy to make the "skulls" that it's become one of my go-to's for at least one night of Halloween craziness. (Who has time to waste in the kitchen when all sorts of spooky frights abound?!) The recipe, such as it is, basically boils … [Read more...]
Creamy Broccoli Potato Leek Soup (Vegan & Gluten Free)
This soup is perfect for St. Paddy's Day, or any other day of the week! I am a firm believer in not wasting food, as much as humanly possible. I had a leftover baked potato from dinner the night before, 2 leeks that needed to be used and an avocado that wasn't going to last another hour! So… this soup was born! I encourage you to use what you have on hand too! Rarely do veggies not go well … [Read more...]
Baked Feta Pasta (Vegan & Gluten Free)
So I've been seeing this Baked Feta & Cherry Tomato Pasta recipe EVERYWHERE on IG (probably like you all have too!). (And yes, I know this viral sensation started on TikTok but my computer software developer husband wouldn't let me join! LOL!) I had zero interest in making it because I don't like feta cheese. But I got these GORGEOUS cherry tomatoes from Frecker Farms. My 4 year old … [Read more...]
Zucchini Potato Latkes (Vegan & Gluten Free)
I love my Baked Sweet Potato Latkes, and make them every year. My 4 year old was looking forward to them all month, and reminded me to make them for Hanukkah several times. But one thing I love about the holidays is trying NEW recipes, as well as revisiting tried-and-true classics. So this year, I was excited to try Baked Zucchini & Potato latkes! Thanks to Covid and our stay-at-home … [Read more...]
Vegan & Gluten Free Pumpkin Challah Rolls
Halloween is my favorite holiday! This year we had Shabbat on erev Halloween AND Halloween was on a full (blue) moon?! Maybe there are 'some' highlights to 2020 after all! :) All week long I've been making new recipes like Frankenkiwis, Witches' Fingers and vegan Mummy Dogs! I surprised my kids with an extra special Challah-ween by celebrating with TWO new recipes! Vegan & gluten free … [Read more...]
