Gluten-Free and Vegan Challah
It took months and months and a gazillion attempts but I finally succeeded in making a delicious gluten-free and vegan challah. And just in time for Rosh Hashanah which is less than 2 weeks away. Mazel Tov! I was very excited when I came up with a recipe for vegan challah. It was light, […]
Roasted Buffalo Cauliflower Bites
Before I was vegan, chicken was my favorite food and Buffalo wings were my obsession. Whenever I would go out to eat, I ordered Buffalo wings as an appetizer. Sometimes I would go out with friends after work to the local “wing joint” and we would order a platter of 40 or 60 wings. Did […]
Happy Birthday & Welcome to the New Home of The “V” Word!

Snap Pea Salad with Almonds in an Herbed Vinaigrette
Sugar snap peas are one of those vegetables I buy and then I’m not sure what to do with them other than putting them in a stir-fry or just munching them raw. They are a cute little bunch of pods and they hold up really well to cooking, keeping their crunch. Tom brought me home […]
