It’s not surprise that I love granola. I’ve blogged about it a bunch of times (just type in granola in the search field at the top). Granola is one of those things that I can never find just right in the packaged version. As someone with a serious aversion to raisins I’m forever disappointed that [...]

So to accompany my not so great pork belly I made bok choy. I’ve always enjoyed bok choy but usually buy the big heads. This time I thought it would be fun to buy some baby bok choy and stir-fry that up. Thanks heavens I did because my pork belly verged on inedible The [...]

A few months ago someone contacted me to see if I was interested in the Flying Apron’s Gluten-free & Vegan Baking Book by Jennifer Katzinger. Of course I was. If you’ve been following my blog you know that I’ve experimented with a few vegan baking recipes from Babycakes NYC (check out this post, and this [...]

During the winter months I’m always on the lookout for new soup recipes. Soup is one of my favourite things to eat for lunch during the winter and it tends to be healthy. After a great cup of soup while at Angelica Kitchen in New York, I decided to pull out my copy of their [...]

This recipe from the Veganomicon cookbook has been blogged about a TON. It’s literally astounding how many blogs I’ve come across that have made this recipe. Given all the “press” this recipe has been on my “to try” list for months. I’m not sure what took me so long to make it. The ingredient list [...]

I’ve been a fan of Heidi Swanson of 101 Cookbooks for awhile. She’s definitely one of the “mega” food bloggers out there and she focuses on vegetarian, vegan and natural cooking. The photograpy is awesome and the recipes are neat. One of my friends is currently on a soba noodle kick. She’s obsessed, an intervention [...]
Yes, more experimenting with vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar free baking courtesy of the Babycakes NYC cookbook. I’ve made a few things from here that have been blogged about here, here, and here with pretty good success. If my often carnivorous/dairy loving heart can be transformed than this stuff must be good. When you check out [...]
