Recently, I've become more intrigued by raw foods - as you can see from my raw zucchini rolls. I don't see myself converting to a fully raw food diet anytime soon, but I do enjoy making the occasional

Yesterday I made my first version of raw zucchini lasagna - layered stacks of peeled vegetables with cashew cheese and raw tomato sauce. (I'll be sharing the recipe in another post). Then since I still

Personally, I never get tired of pizza. Well, how could anyone? However, the best part for me has always been gooey melted cheese. (I still find it pretty genius to put nothing but cheese on top of pizza

Let’s face it. The basic Chinese food, and especially vegan Chinese food, you get from Chinese restaurants is pretty bland and boring. Or at least that’s the case here. We aren’t saying that we don’t

It starts to get cold, and I declare the official start of soup and casserole season! These pureed soups are my savior on those evenings when I want something warm and I am too lazy to cook anything fancy.

I was never the biggest fan of plain egg salad. To me, it was a bit boring—basically just solid eggs mixed with liquid eggs (mayonnaise). I thought it would benefit from some other flavors, so I added

There are many different variations on the dish we know as shepherd’s pie. In different countries, different ingredients may be used. For example, in Chile, they use hard-boiled eggs, raisins and olives

Crispy, chewy crust, sweet tomato sauce and smoky and savory filling. That’s how I like my pizza. I always thought the cheese worked mainly as a barrier between the things I loved the most in a good pizza.

Years ago, my mom bought a block of smoked tofu. I don’t remember what she made from it because the only thing that stuck in our minds was how disgusting it tasted. This is a good example of how tastes

This recipe was inspired by cafeteria food. Let me tell you how. One day, my husband was telling me how great the carrot patties were at the cafeteria where he eats his lunch. I got kind of jealous and

Sometimes the best dishes are created from leftovers. That is the case with this dish too. Pyttipannu is something I do almost every time I have some boiled potatoes from the day before, but it’s so good

When we were kids, our family used to go to the small Indian restaurant. I was a kid such a long time ago that I can even remember the restaurant being divided into two sections, smoking and nonsmoking.

Here are some awesome sweet italian peppers filled with tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, onions, cumin, black olives and topped with a bit of vegan cheese and slices of vegan pepperoni. They are very versatile,

I have been trying to clean up my diet a bit and was so excited to make this! Our oven back in Nova Scotia has been broken for… hmm over a month? I’ve been living with a friend and now have access to an

I got some Szechuan Eggplant take out a couple of times and it was really delicious. However, I try to limit the amount of take out I get, since you can’t really be sure what is going in it. (Some places

A few weeks ago I made some pumpkin pancakes and wasn’t sure of what to do with the leftover pumpkin, so I made some pumpkin gnocchi. It was really good, but it wasn’t gluten-free, so today I tried it

I will take almost any excuse to make a raw dessert. I will rarely make them for just myself, but if I can make something for someone else, I am on it. My dad was away for about 4 days, so I took the

I have a huge love of sushi (especially when someone else prepares it and not me! 😊 ) but there aren’t any close sushi places at my current location so from time to time the urge overcomes me and I spend

Been working out all week, so I decided to have a quiet weekend while my sore muscles repair themselves. I had a sudden pancake craving, and we have a few bananas which are really close to being super
