Vegan Mac and Cheese with Tempeh Bacon, Scallions & Tomatoes ~ Vegan MOFO 2013

One of my all time favorite things to eat is macaroni and cheese. What is there to not like, after all? Lots of carbs with cheesy sauce holding it all together, yum. And it was even one of the first things I learned how to make as a child - yep, the neon orange stuff… Continue reading Vegan Mac and Cheese with Tempeh Bacon, Scallions & Tomatoes ~ Vegan MOFO 2013

Chocolate-Drizzled Vegan Cannoli with Fresh Peaches

I think one of the absolute best things about summer is the peaches - never at another time can you get one that tastes as perfect as it does in mid-August. There is just something about that perfectly juicy, ripe and fragrant fruit ~ nothing else can compare to it. So this is how I… Continue reading Chocolate-Drizzled Vegan Cannoli with Fresh Peaches

Rosemary Olive Potpie Turnovers

I have a confession to make... I'm extremely food-suggestible. In other words, if you tell me about it or I see it, I usually want to eat it. That means I easily fall prey to mentions of food in books, magazines, and on late night television. Of course, I don't always eat it, but that… Continue reading Rosemary Olive Potpie Turnovers

(Mostly) Raw Blackberry-Lavender Ice Cream

Now it's the middle of August, and I'm wondering where the summer has gone - didn't it just begin? Somehow it passed without my even realizing it. Fortunately, here in Southern CA the best months of summer are actually September & October, so I haven't completely missed out.  Walks on the beach, here I come!… Continue reading (Mostly) Raw Blackberry-Lavender Ice Cream

Carrot Cake Waffles

What was breakfast like when you were a child? I remember lots of little flavored oatmeal and cream of wheat packets, cold cereal, and the occasional Pop Tart (when I could convince my mother to buy some). And very occasionally, there were frozen waffles or those little toaster pastries with the frosting that you can… Continue reading Carrot Cake Waffles

Homemade Probiotic Drinks

I love drinks with  bubbles! Anything bubbly or sparkly will get my attention far quicker than something flat. So when I discovered that probiotic drinks (like Kevita) are bubbly, they got me hooked. What I didn't so much like about them was the cost for something that will take me about 60 seconds to drink.… Continue reading Homemade Probiotic Drinks

Green Warrior-Goddess Soup

This was originally my idea for a nice raw green goddess soup ~ lots of herbs, some greens, a little creaminess, all combined to make a great live soup. The result, however, was more than I'd bargained for. You know how some green juice recipes, and some raw soup recipes, say "This is great for… Continue reading Green Warrior-Goddess Soup
