Smoky Black Bean Soup
I’ve been attempting to be more organized when it comes to cooking. I’m making beans in the slow cooker and freezing them for later. I’m actually making and sticking to grocery lists. The leafy greens are being used and not going to waste as I forget they are in my fridge…does that ever happen to […]
Pfeffernusse Cookies
Pfeffernusse cookies are a family favorite recipe lightly adapted from my very favorite cookbook, Joy of Cooking. The pfeffernusse are lightly sweet, spicy, chewy, and utterly delicious. Christmas cookies are wonderful, aren’t they? Baking favorite recipes together is one of my very favorite parts of the holidays. My husband is the first one who introduced […]
Eat Vegan On $4 a Day: Millet Crunch
A few months ago I received Eat Vegan On $4 A Day by Ellen Jaffe Jones to review. I was excited to read it because I have been trying to get back to better eating habits and we are on an incredibly tight budget. Win-win. I opened the package right away and thumbed through it. […]
Eat Vegan On $4 A Day: Peanut Butter Smoothie
Smoothies have become my breakfast of choice most days. I have been so busy with various things that drinking my breakfast while I’m working has been a wonderful solution.

Cream of Fennel and Zucchini Soup with Fennel Pollen
Fennel became one of my favorite vegetables a few years ago. We like to buy a bulb or two every so often as a special treat. It’s not always easy to find at the grocery stores here in Utah like it was when we lived in New York. Sadly, all the fennel I planted drowned […]

Marinated Tofu with Tahini Asparagus and Pearl Oyster Mushrooms
Have you been curious about the fate of the pearl oyster mushrooms from the Back To The Roots kit? (They were delicious.) Nikhil e-mailed me and said something like our crop was record-breaking. :) What else could you expect from me? (I’m sure it was beginner’s luck.) I took a few more pics to show […]
Sunday Night Dinner: Polenta with Smoky Tomato Sauce, Quick-Roasted Zucchini with Pesto, and Braised Kale
Yesterday afternoon my husband and I went back and forth about what to have for dinner. After days and days of Thai curry, he was not yet tired of its spicy, seductive ways. I was craving leafy greens and something tomato-y. (I won because I’m the one who cooked. Tonight will be Thai again, and […]
Gluten-Free Vegan Coconut-Almond Chocolate Chip Cookies.
C is for coconut, chocolate chip and crack. All of which these cookies have in them. Purely addictive. I saw Jenny and Brooke post their recipes for coconut oil chocolate chippers. I know I can trust their cookie judgement. I saw Helene’s take on David Leite’s chocolate chip cookie recipe. She used some coconut oil […]
