Quinoa & Cauliflower Roast

I feel that Jim isn’t properly represented in the pact sometimes-mainly because I do all the writing and blogging. It’s harder to post some of the great dishes he comes up with, because he NEVER writes down what he does in a recipe and I’m usually not around to hover over him and takes notes […]

Vegan Crepes with Coconut Maple Cream Sauce

As much as I love vegan French Toast and pancakes, I do like to try something new for breakfast when we can. I decided crepes were a feat I’d never tackled even when I could have the egg, butter and milk-filled versions, so now seemed like the prime time to make it happen. The batter […]
