I’ve been working on this e-book for over 2 years and it’s finally done. Every Chanukah and then every Rosh Hashanah, I’d plan to have this book done but things came up and life got busy. Yesterday when I sat down to write my articles for One Green Planet, their web site was down and […]

Jewish Food Hero Holiday Menu Service
Passover is fast approaching and like most holidays, the focus is very much on food. Passover has many food restrictions and when you’re vegan on top of that, it can be downright challenging. Searching for recipes that are both vegan and appropriate for the Jewish holidays can be difficult; the resources are few and not […]
VeganMoFo #18: Gluten-Free Pumpkin Challah Rolls with a Few Vegan Products
In this last week of VeganMoFo, I’m posting recipes and they probably use some vegan products I can give a shout-out to. It’s a little detour from my theme of highlighting vegan products because tomorrow is Rosh Hashanah and I wanted to get in a few holiday-specific recipes. Be sure to check out my Rosh […]
VeganMoFo #17: Potato and Onion Kugel with Sauteed Apples Done 2 Ways
Today is a bit of a departure from my VeganMoFo theme because I am not reviewing any products. However, it’s still another post about delicious vegan food with a recipe so I’m sure it counts. Rosh Hashanah is almost upon us. If you are planning a big dinner for your friends and family, you will […]
Vegan and Gluten-Free Potato Blintzes
It’s Shavout, the Jewish holiday where we commemorate receiving the Torah, and for most people who celebrate, it brings to mind dishes that focus on dairy. However, I just read an interesting article on The Jewish Daily Forward called “Want Authentic Shavout Meals? Try Fruit, Not Dairy.” The article states that dairy was not an […]

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, […]
Vegan Challah
When I was a little kid, I used to make challah with my mother. This was a big deal. My mother didn’t let anyone help in the kitchen – we just got in the way and would do everything wrong anyway. But making challah was something she and I did together. She would rip open […]
Lotsa Latkes Part II: Global Mash-Ups
Yesterday I posted 4 recipes for vegetable-filled latkes: traditional potato latkes, potato-zucchini latkes, zucchini-carrot latkes and Brussels sprouts latkes. Today I am going global, mashing up the customary potato latkes with some of my favorite ethnic flavors. It’s really fun to shake things up and try new things. I made 5 different styles of flavor-filled […]
Gluten-Free Hamantaschen: New & Improved!
Happy Purim! There is no way that I could improve upon my Purim blog post from last year. It’s really good, if I do say so myself. It covers my childhood Purim experiences, the link between Purim and veganism, the exploitation of women and more! You should definitely read it here. But I could […]
