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...]
Mummy Dogs
Over the years (since at least 2010!), I've shared many super simple and healthier spooky treats for Halloween. I'm SO excited to announce 3 new additions to the club:FRANKENKIWIS, WITCHES' FINGERS & first time ever, VEGAN Mummy Dogs! They were such a big hit, the girls have already asked to have them for dinner again! (And I got a video of my 4 year old cuddling with hers, telling it … [Read more...]
Vegan Coleslaw
We're doing a lot more cooking here in our house. The beaches/restaurants are closed for the long weekend, and we still have safer-at-home orders in place here in LA. Maybe you're in a similar situation, or just hanging out BBQ'ing for the weekend. Either way, I'd like to share, for the first time ever, my best ever coleslaw recipe AND potato salad recipe! Easy, yummy, traditional yet totally … [Read more...]
Red, White & Blue Vegan Potato Salad
Day 546 of quarantine. Kidding! (But it certainly feels that way.) The beaches and restaurants are closed for the long weekend, and we still have safer-at-home orders in place here in LA. Maybe you're in a similar situation, or just hanging out BBQ'ing for the weekend. The plus side? We've saved A TON of money by cooking at home for every meal! It's healthier too! :) Growing your own food, … [Read more...]
Mock Tuna Salad (Vegan & Gluten Free)
This is the one recipe I've made the MOST of this summer! I just can't get enough! I recently visited my parents in NJ and my mother said it was better than "actual" tuna salad! (I think that's saying something from someone who eats fish and is not vegan!) She absolutely loved it! I had mock tuna salad for the first time at an LA cafe this past spring and I loved it so much that I had to make … [Read more...]

Roasted Creamy Cauliflower & Truffle Soup (Vegan & Gluten Free)
I was working on my Winter Soup Series and got so carried away that I ended up with one more, after I put together the recipes. I JUST made this tonight (it's actually a rainy day here in LA!) and it was incredible. So creamy, decadent and yummy! REALLY hard to believe it's vegan! This soup is great without cashews (if you want a nut free soup or don't have cashews!) and truffle oil BUT... I have … [Read more...]
Mac ‘N Cheese (Vegan & Gluten Free)
I am like everyone else - a busy person... I'm an entrepreneur and a mom and don't always have time to menu plan the week in advance (although I think it's a great idea and highly recommend it!) :) I was flying by the seat of my pants one night, when I had a craving for Mac 'n Cheese. I LOVE my vegan/gluten free mac 'n cheese recipe but I didn't have any cauliflower on hand! I DID have some … [Read more...]
