Where to Shop in Vancouver if You are Vegetarian/Vegan

I’m publishing this on a thursday, because, quite honestly, it’s a bit of a throwback post. With Christmas just past, I made a ton of cookies, and then wrapped them up in decorative bags and gave them to friends as presents. In general, I have

Kale Chips (Dehydrator Method)

Kale Chips are a gateway drug. You see, there was a time when my kid wouldn’t have touched kale with 10-foot-pole. Nope. Absolutely would never happen. But then, I made him some Kale Chips. And they were so good, and he liked them so much,

Grilled Caesar Salad

You know what I absolutely hate? When you get a sandwich, and the lettuce is so old and wilted inside that it is a string of dark green mush. It’s a huge turn-off! This often happens when sandwich shops pre-make their sandwiches, and then they

Vegan Lemon Meringue Pie #AquaFaba

Earlier this week, I shared a lemon mousse recipe I’d made with sauerkraut. In the spirit of making desserts when life hands you lemons, today’s recipe is a vegan lemon meringue pie. This recipe wouldn’t be possible without aquafaba, which is kind of my new
