Honey Lavender Ice Cream
Remember when Funk and I went to Puerto Rico and declared the honey lavender ice cream we enjoyed at Verde Mesa the best dessert ever? We’ve been thinking about it ever since. Last week Funk and I headed to his favorite restaurant, Blue Ginger, to celebrate the husband’s big 30th birthday. Instead of ordering dessert, [...]
Vegan Peanut Butter Fudge
For one of his MBA classes, Funk is doing a group project on the Teddy Peanut Butter company, which happens to be local to Boston. For part of his presentation, he thought it’d be fun to give out peanut-butter inspired snacks to his classmates, and I jumped right on board. I’ll do anything to help [...]
Vegan Blueberry Banana Bread
The thing with making banana bread is that you have to wait all week for those dang bananas to ripen before you can get cooking. But once those bananas are ready? It’s well worth it. Especially for this amazing vegan blueberry banana bread I spotted on the Daily Garnish blog. I love a recipe that [...]
My New Roots’ Raw Cashew Dreamcake
One of my favorite new (to me) blogs is My New Roots. Sarah is a vegetarian chef and her posts always have the most gorgeous photographs and delicious recipes. She also is great at explaining how to prepare her recipes, or why she does certain things (like soak nuts). I recently came across one of [...]
Passover Dessert: Chocolate Toffee Matzah
This may just be the least nutritious food you’ll ever see on the blog. Ever. (See exhibit A) But it’s all about balance, right? Especially for the holidays. Funk and I are having our own Passover seder for two tomorrow and I wanted to make a sweet treat. Most Passover foods are loaded with eggs, [...]
Coconut Cookies
I created a recipe for Bob’s Red Mill using coconut flour, which, by the way, is a very tricky flour to bake with if you don’t eat eggs! If you want to see my recipe for these iced vegan coconut cookies, head on over to the Bob’s Red Mill Bakery Blog. Now what can I [...]
Taza Chocolate Factory Tour
I love going on food tours, whether it is a city’s walking food tour like I did in Portland, Oregon, or checking out behind-the-scenes food production like I got to do at POM Wonderful in California. But traveling across the country isn’t a requirement for getting a factory food tour, especially when there is an [...]
Vegan Chocolate Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Frosting
Every few weeks, Funk organizes a meeting at his work for a handful of people. One week he made mention that it’d be fun if he brought in some tasty treats to share with the group (translation: please send me to work with food), and added that it’d be a good way to show others [...]
Chia Seed Review: Ruth’s Foods Chia Goodness
A while back, someone from Ruth’s Foods contacted me asking if I’d like to try their Chia Goodness products. I’ve been incorporating chia seeds into my diet pretty regularly in the past year, especially in smoothies, and as an egg replacer, so I was eager to try them. (1 Tbsp chia seeds soaked in 3 [...]
