tested, tasty, vegan
These are those items you’d want to make and share around the holidays
These decadent Easy Vegan Cream Cheese Stuffed Dates are inspired by Devils on Horseback and the many variations of the aforementioned I served while working in hip restaurants. I used to describe them to customers as “meat candy” and they were always a hit. I thought about trying to cutesy up the […]
These Miso Eggplant & Red Onion Skewers are easy, rich, and delicious served right out of the oven, off of the grill, or at room temperature. If you are not sure about how you feel about eggplant, these skewers might make you a fan. Serving suggestions for Miso Eggplant & […]
I go a little bonkers for Chipotle guac! This is Chipotle’s Official Guac Recipe. Yep, I am a guac on my vegan burrito plus more guac on the side kind of Chipotle customer. This guac recipe is easily my favorite thing about Chipotle. It’s a great place to eat vegan […]
These Orange-Rosemary Glazed Beets are decadent, flavorful, and wonderful to make ahead. They are delicious hot or cold, great as a side, in a salad or power bowl, or on crackers with Green Cashew-Fu Ricotta (a.k.a vegan cashew tofu ricotta) or Lux Vegan Macadamia Ricotta and Easy Stove Top Maple […]
Lux Vegan Macadamia Ricotta is an impressive, minimalist four-ingredient nut cheese. It’s super tasty on summer salads, spread on crackers, or wrapped up in salad wraps. I also recommend devouring it with glazed, roasted beets, artisan bread, or Rosemary Oven-Baked Sun-Dried Tomato Whole Flaxseed Crackers a.k.a. Flackers. Lux Vegan Macadamia […]

I’m amazed by the deliciousness of this No-Float Vegan Cauliflower Gnocchi & Lemon Kale-Basil Pesto! It’s so easy to make compared to traditional potato gnocchi. Hey, don’t get it twisted — I still love traditional potato gnocchi. I also love this cauliflower gnocchi because it’s both easy and delicious. This […]
Occasionally while watching The Food Network, I see awesome things. While flipping channels, I came across the tail end of an episode of Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives. I watched in awe as The Google Chef prepared beautiful, vegan pan-seared gnocchi with kale and Brussels sprouts. I did some digging and […]
I love Homemade Vegan Gnocchi. The secret to these dreamy little pillows of goodness is in using rock salt to dry out the potatoes when baking. When I was a gnocchi making beginner, I often made gnocchi dough that was too wet. Live and learn. Homemade Vegan Gnocchi pairs well […]
I’ve been making all of the puddings lately. This Creamy Silken Chocolate Vegan Pudding is my absolute favorite. I’ve been a fan of the avocado chocolate puddings, but I find a certain amount of ripeness with the avocado can throw off the flavor and make the presence of avocado a […]
