it’s the day before thanksgiving and you know what that means, time to make the pumpkin pie and stick it in the fridge so you don’t have to think about it along with the million other things you have to think about cooking tomorrow. the great thing about this recipe is that it requires no [...]
there are lots of ways to make vegan gravy. some saute mushrooms, garlic or onions to go for a thicker, chunkier consistency. i prefer a simple smooth gravy, like i had growing up. this recipe only has 5 ingredients and takes about 5 minutes to make.
and while gravy tastes good on pretty much anything you [...]
i didn’t grow up eating corn bread at thanksgiving, but the past few years i’ve tried to make it a habit. it has a wonderfully hardy taste and texture that pairs nicely with the other (heavy) foods we stuff ourselves with on the holiday. and as i discovered, just like everything else on the thanksgiving [...]
when i bought a bunch of baby asparagus at the farmers’ market last week, i started brainstorming how i would cook it. for some reason the idea of an “asparagus pie” popped into my head, and when i started to think of what that would mean it became clear it would be a quiche.

i am always totally satisfied with their products, so when i had [...]
i used to throw a lot of tea parties. i would get a few girls in sun dresses together and ask everyone to bring a dish. i’d brew up some tea and lemonade, throw some table cloths on tables in my front yard, and from there the parties seemed to takes care of themselves!
it’s been [...]
caesar dressing can be a tasty and tangy way to spice up nearly any dish, but most versions contain at least one non-vegan ingredient, be it parmesan cheese, milk, anchovies, or even raw eggs. what most don’t realize is that the zesty flavor of caesar dressing can be easily achieved without these ingredients, using only [...]
dark greens are one of my favorite things to eat, but i don’t quite have the stomach to enjoy them raw. i like to lightly steam or sauté greens like kale or collard, and man can it be easy and tasty. this recipe only has four ingredients and can be used for any of your [...]
i am a huge fan of flore, the vegan restaurant in silver lake on sunset. their portabella panini, tacos de papas and “the salad” are to die for. they feature a cooler full of delicious desserts and deli-style dishes. the menu hosts a slew of raw and gluten-free items and best of all they serve [...]
