I would hazard a guess that every vegan and vegetarian and most non-veggie eaters have had a black bean burger before (at least in the US). They are certainly one of the most common veggie burgers offered at restaurants and in stores. And for good reason! They’re delicious, and a vegetarian classic. There might a …

I’m sitting here trying to think if my summer eating and cooking is actually any different than my wintertime eating. I know some people avoid the stove as much as possible, but hey even when it hits 90 ºF I’ll still turn on the oven (apparently). I probably make less casseroles, but like, they’re as …
This almond cheese is my go-to for an almost-instant, creamy, versatile spreadable cheese. It blends up in no time, has only 5 ingredients (+ water), and is great for immediate gratification! I spread it on toast, fill homemade ravioli with it, dollop it on pizza, and stuff jalapeños with it (recipe here)!
Monday was a very exciting day over here, as it marked 1 year of marriage. And to celebrate our anniversary, I made a mini-feast for dinner inspired by the food at our wedding. We got married last summer at the Sofitel in downtown Chicago, and the menu had a French Mediterranean theme, was 100% vegan, …
I’m obsessed with bread. Everything about it, from the yeasty smell as it bakes to the soft, squishy, pillowy interior. The crackly crust that shatters so perfectly on a freshly baked loaf. Even making the dough. There’s something so relaxing about the process, feeling the dough as it develops in your hands. Gaining elasticity and structure …
You guys have to try this super easy, 10 ingredient, almost instant, same day vegan mozzarella cheese! This vegan cheese is super versatile. You can use it on pizza (recipe here), put it in stromboli (I especially love the texture of the cheese in this application), and it’s great in a hot or cold sandwich.
This recipe is one of my lazy girl recipes. How can something with such a fancy name, be a lazy girl recipe you ask? Well, because it’s ready in under a half an hour and doesn’t make a huge mess, so clean up is minimal. Plus it’s an easy way to include your veggies for a complete …
Potato pan pizza is what dreams are made of. Chewy, doughy pan pizza with crispy slivers of peppery, salty potatoes, sweet bits of onion, heady rosemary, and creamy vegan mozzarella. Did I just describe the most perfect, indulgent pizza? I think so. This pan pizza is my take on pizza con patate, an ‘accidentally vegan’ option common …
My family spent some time in India when I was a kid, and that was the first time I remember having whole urad dal (also known as black gram/black lentils). I’m not sure why I didn’t grow up eating it all the time but I became enamored of it. You might have had this variety of dal before …
Caramelized onions, crumbled veggie burger, fresh basil, and delicious creamy vodka sauce. That is all it takes to make this delicious pizza. Vodka sauce is my new favorite pizza base, made creamy with cashews and a little cheesy with vegan parm or nutritional yeast. After simmering for a half hour on the stove the flavors blend together to create perfection, …
