2012 Recap

I have to admit, 2012 was a fabulous year. Going vegan was a monumental decision, and even though it isn’t always easy to resist some of my old faves like pizza and nachos, I’ve found that absolutely every non-vegan food has an equally delicious plant-based version. I’m so grateful for my animal-free diet, especially because it’s provided me with the opportunity to […]

Jalapeno, Scallion & Corn Poppers

Well, we’re ending 2012 with what is likely the most addictive appetizer I’ve ever made.

Homemade Soft Pretzels

How have I never made these before?! My absolute favorite, favorite  favorite snack of all time has always been soft pretzels.

Beings sans-microwave now, […]

Garlic & Chive Parsley Hummus

Garlic & Chive Parsley Hummus   Print Warning: Don’t eat this delicious dip if you plan on doing some smooching. Stinky breath is the only downside to yet another, perfect hummus recipe!
