Veganizing Julia: Vegan Apple Tarte Tatin

Veganizing Julia: Vegan Apple Tarte Tatin

Let me just paint you a picture. First, you have to think about caramel. Smooth, sweet, with a hint of darkness to it. Chunks of apples are drowned it it, bathed in it, until they take on that same caramel colour. Then all of it 

Vegan Mayo {Aquafaba}

Vegan Mayo {Aquafaba}

If there’s a world with no mayo in it, I don’t want to live there. Creamy, drippy, luscious… it’s the perfect topping for burger, or for dressing a salad. I also like to use it as a dip–yam fries love this stuff, and polenta fries 

Vegan Broth — Vegetarian Soup Stock

Vegan Broth — Vegetarian Soup Stock

Over the last few years, bone broth has become a huge thing in the wellness and paleo communities. Here’s the thing, though; that stuff is made from bones, which, clearly are not something that I eat. So, health benefits or no; bone broth is not

Recently, I was browsing about on the interwebz (as you do) and came across this article on The Hot Vegan Food Trends of the moment. Aquafaba is #1–yay! But there were a few others in there that piqued my interest, as well, like the “Goth

Veganizing Julia Child: Mushroom Bourguignon

Find Julia Child’s Vegan Apple Tarte Tatin here. I have long been a fan of Julia Child. I admire her immensely, because she was a pioneer in her field. Before Julia, there were very few female cookbook authors, and there were no TV chefs. She

Banoffee Pie In a Jar {Vegan}

I only had Banoffee Pie for the first time quite recently. I think I had it at Chewie’s, which does a pretty great version, considering it’s a NOLA-inspired restaurant. You see, Banoffee is quite a British dessert; it’s a mix of bananas, pastry cream and 

Chocolate Pumpkin Beer Cake {Vegan}

Chocolate Pumpkin Beer Cake {Vegan}

This cake has rapidly become my go-to when it comes to birthdays. Truthfully, I am kind of snob when it comes to baked goods. Despite the fact that my kid loves Oreos, we very seldom have them in the house. I prefer to send him 

Pumpkin-Spiced Brownies {Vegan}

Pumpkin-Spiced Brownies {Vegan}

It’s Thanksgiving this weekend, and you know what that means… Tofurky for all! Okay, so not really… I’m not the hugest Tofurkey fan, but I am grateful for all the great vegetarian versions of holiday feasts out there that give me an alternative to the 

Aquafabulous! Roasted Carrot Dip

Aquafabulous! Roasted Carrot Dip

It’s officially fall! So, yeah. I’m not super happy about that. In my ideal world, summer would last forever. There is something kinda wonderful about breaking out my favorite cozy scarf again, though. The beginning of fall means that my kitchen is now actually cool 

Fudgey Chocolate Ice Cream {Vegan}

Fudgey Chocolate Ice Cream {Vegan}

Ohhhhh… vegan ice cream. It’s a challenge. You see, in order for ice cream to work, it needs fat. Lots of fat. Fat gives it a creamy mouthfeel, but it also helps the ice cream to stay creamy, and not get too hard and unscoopable.
