Yesterday was my dad's birthday, and this year I thought it'd be fun to re-create one of his favorite ice cream flavors. Growing up, I used to love visiting the near-by ice cream stand, or whippy dip as it we called it. Like most establishments of its kind, it was only open from late spring … Continue reading Vegan Black Cherry Ice Cream

Coffee and Coconut Milk Popsicles
Our weather forecast starting this weekend into next week is looking a bit... subtropical. Temps in the 90s, high humidity, thunderstorms. I can feel my brow starting to perspire just thinking about it. Not to worry though, because I have the antidote. My plan for surviving our first big heat wave of the summer? Stacks … Continue reading Coffee and Coconut Milk Popsicles
Raspberry Rhubarb Coconut Crumble Bars
I told you in my last post I had something special up my sleeve for that raspberry rhubarb jam... Introducing the tastiest, jammiest, most crumble-topping-est (I know, just go with it), sweet dessert bar, ever. It's the best tasting bar I've ever made. Possibly the best dessert bar I've tasted, ever. And it should be, … Continue reading Raspberry Rhubarb Coconut Crumble Bars
Raspberry Rhubarb Chia Seed Jam
This tangy sweet jam is a prelude to a delicious dessert recipe I just can't wait to share. While these homemade preserves make for the perfect sweet ingredient in a special treat, this easy homemade jam also happens to be the topping your toast has been waiting for (and your pancakes, waffles, and french toast, … Continue reading Raspberry Rhubarb Chia Seed Jam
Vegan and Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
I hope there's no unwritten (or written, for that matter) rule about the number of peanut butter cookies one site can post. I'm imagining a list somewhere of 10 Things Successful Food Blogs Never Do, and "Posting Too Many Peanut Butter Cookie Recipes" is like item number 4. If that's so, I'm in deep, deep, … Continue reading Vegan and Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Classic Vegan French Toast
Over the years, I've shared some of my favorite plant-based breakfasts, many of them veganized versions of my favorite dishes. Fluffy golden pancakes, hearty buckwheat pancakes, cornmeal waffles with blueberry sauce, savory-filled crepes, even these unconventional, but delicious, cinnamon rolls. Despite the fact that I have two French toast creations (pumpkin and coconut) on the … Continue reading Classic Vegan French Toast
Chocolate Chunk Cowboy Cookie Dough Bites
Mmmm... cookie dough happiness. Unbaked cookie dough balls or bites are a big favorite around here. In fact, when my almost 4 year old asks to make cookies, she's actually referring to cookie dough. We make it a half a dozen different ways, usually with oat flour, and sweetened with dates, maple syrup, or coconut … Continue reading Chocolate Chunk Cowboy Cookie Dough Bites
Bang Bang Cauliflower Lettuce Wraps
Crispy cornmeal and crumb coated cauliflower is baked to golden perfection before being tossed in a delicious creamy and spicy sriracha spiked sauce in these tasty lettuce wraps. This healthy plant based meal or appetizer has flavor, texture, ease-ability... the whole shi-bang. Make that the whole shi-bang bang. In my pre-vegan days I used to … Continue reading Bang Bang Cauliflower Lettuce Wraps
Banana Bread Batter Overnight Oats
So overnight oats. I was a little hesitant to post this recipe because the whole overnight oatmeal thing is a little... two years ago? In fact, the first overnight oats recipe I ever posted on the blog was back in 2015, this Almond Butter and Carob number. Throwing all notions of being a "cool" and … Continue reading Banana Bread Batter Overnight Oats
