But … Continue reading Healthy Vegan Banana Bread
Long time, no see, my friends! How is everyone doing? Lately, I've been in a bit of a food funk. I'm feeling very "meh" about food and cooking. And recipe creation? It's not happening.

It decided to be the latter yesterday, right before it rained for several hours. Luckily, before that happened, my daughter and I snuck in … Continue reading White Bean Chili – Vegan and Oil Free
Recently I fell in love with the amazing flavor combination that is pumpkin + chocolate.
