I have made all kinds of spicy noodle soups, including several rough takes on ramen. But I have never made anything that resembled what I have ordered in a restaurant, until now. This vegan ramen recipe is easy to make, and is incredibly easy to adjust to what you have on hand. I’ll usually make […]
Spicy Thai Peanut Noodle Soup (Low Fat, No Oil, Vegan)
Most Thai Peanut Noodle soup recipes contain coconut milk and peanut butter. Because I follow a low-fat (and oil free) way of eating, I did not want to use coconut milk. Not only does a high-fat soup cause my gastrointestinal upset after adopting a low-fat diet, that saturated fat adds up quickly even in a […]
Quick and simple spicy vegetable udon soup (Vegan, No oil)
A quick lunch is often required if you’re working, whether it’s at home or in the office.

Therefore, we often use broth concentrates to make our vegetable, vegan “chick’n”, vegan “beef”, and mushroom broths for various recipes. New products […]
Spicy Vegan Drunken Noodles Recipe (Pad Kee Mao – Oil Free, Low Fat)
I have been working on perfecting an oil free vegan version of drunken noodles (called Pad Kee Mao) to put into our regular meal “rotation”. I am a sucker for noodle soups and noodle based dishes, and drunken noodles ticks the boxes for being flavorful, filling, and versatile (in that I can use whatever type […]
Umami Seasoning blend recipe (Vegan, SOS free option)
This is a copycat recipe for Trader Joe’s seasoning blend, and other umami spice blends available at many grocery stores. I couldn’t find a similar blend locally (we don’t have Trader Joe’s), so I found a picture of the label and am running with the ingredients listed there (while making a few adjustments). The ratios […]
