Low fat pumpkin pie filling (Vegan, Oil Free)
This pumpkin pie is simple to make, and delicious. It’s one of those recipes where your guests will not realize is entirely plant-based. And they definitely will not know that it’s low fat and relatively (apart from the sugar) healthy, particularly compared to the traditional non-vegan version of the dish. I was impressed how creamy […]
Crunchy battered and seasoned onion rings (Low fat, vegan, no oil)
These vegan onion rings are coated in batter, then bread crumbs of your choosing, and baked to crispy perfection. They were so crispy in fact I could douse them in vinegar (my favorite way to eat them) – or drizzle with lemon – and they were still crunchy when I bit into one. And despite […]

Oil-free Mango Pesto Pasta Salad (Low Fat, Vegan)
Mango in a pesto pasta salad? Yes. It works (at least for my tastebuds!) This one came from the fact my box of mangoes were running out of time, and I was working on my basil pesto recipe. Tons of pasta in the cupboard. So I thought “why not” and put it all together with […]
Three sorghum trail mix snacks to share: Spicy, Citrusy, and Sweet (Vegan, Oil Free)
I wanted to make a few different types of trail mix for quite some time. I have a bunch of bags of nuts and seeds, and I’m moving internationally, this means it’s time to start moving through my pantry so I do not need to pack it all in boxes! The plan was to make […]

How can I eat a plant based diet on a budget? It’s too expensive!
Starting a new diet based on health can be daunting. Not only do you need to adjust what you cook, but your monthly expenses also change as a result of a different grocery list. Many people think that starting a plant based diet is expensive, and therefore unrealistic considering their budget. However, it is certainly […]
Vegan Myths Busted: All vegans hate meat… it’s ridiculous to make fake meat!
One of the most ridiculous statements I see on a fairly regular basis is the (probable non-vegan) chastising the article about fake meat. They say it’s ridiculous to have such a product because “vegans hate meat! Why make something that’s just like meat? Why not just eat meat!” This statement is so misled (if it’s […]
Spicy Tamarind Green Lentils: A vegan slow cooker dish
While it’s economically advantageous to purchase bulk quantities of the pantry staples, such as green lentils, it means that you need to find a lot of vegan recipes that contain them to keep things interesting. We bought a 25 pound bag of green lentils, so it provides the opportunity to experiment. A lot! But it […]
Mac and Cheese: Simple plant-based vegan mac n cheese
This vegan Mac n Cheeze is incredibly easy to make with any blender, especially a high powered one like the Vitamix. And so many fewer chemicals and less guilt than the original. I also tried the vegan cheese sauce with chickpea noodles made by Banza, and didn’t miss “regular” noodles. I love the limited ingredient […]
