I don’t have much patience, so I love a quick and easy recipe. This grape jam is so easy to make: you don’t need to cook anything, you don’t need many ingredients (no pectin or anything else), and you barely add any sugar either. You just juice your grapes, add some chia and a bit […]

Spicy Salsa Verde recipe that’s not-so-verde (Vegan, Oil free)
I am growing tomatillos this year in the garden, so have a lot that are starting to ripen and are ready for making a bunch of different recipes. Salsa verde is a classic recipe for tomatillos, so this is one of the first things I made using them. Tomatillos are a tangy distant cousin of […]

Fall and Winter Round Up: Jams, soup, and potato recipes (ICYMI)
Because there was a glitch with our mailing list, it seems as though the messages have not been sent out for a long time. I had a hunch, but have been so focused on starting our plant-based farm this year it ended up on the back-burner a bit. So if you are on the mailing […]
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.

I was impressed how creamy […]
