It’s a little early for New Year’s resolutions but here is one of mine: I want to learn to bake! Aaack! I get nervous just thinking about it – the measuring, the need to be precise, the pounds of flour making my clothes look like I was caught in an avalanche and the science experiments […]
Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don’t. Last winter I posted a recipe for my Gluten-Free Lasagna with Hazelnut Ricotta, Cashew Cheese Sauce and Marinara Sauce. It was a delicious trifecta of vegan, gluten-free and soy-free indulgence. This week Tom gifted me with a new lasagna pan so I thought I would return […]

Welcome to my 1st VeganMoFo post! The “V” Word normally celebrates all the wonders of the incredible “V” word – Vegan – but this month I am going to let all the other letters of the alphabet play too!

It’s Purim and even though I am baking-challenged, I decided to try and make Hamentashen. And not just any Hamentashen: Vegan and gluten-free Hamentashen.
