Oil-Free Flaked Crab-less Vegan Salad uses chickpeas, hearts of palm, and vegan oil-free mayo to create a crave-worthy base for lots of different go-to meals. This Grilled Avocado & Vegan Crab-less Salad Wrap is a new favorite. Oh yeah, that’s right: buttery tasting Ritz crackers are vegan! I love sitting down with […]
This Oil-Free Vegan Mayo is easy to make, guilt-free and perfect in so many things. It definitely checks the mayo and Miracle Whip boxes for me. Store-bought vegan mayos taste a lot like mayo, but they are usually mostly made of oil. Here’s a great way to lose the oil […]
