Baked Vegan Macaroni and Cheese
First things first, can I gloat a bit? Of course I can. This is my blog and I make the rules and sometimes I curse and other times I curse some more. But back to gloating. My Vegan Ricotta and Spinach Lasagna for Two recipe was featured on the super fantastic Yummly. This? This excites me. […]
Vegan Lasagna Bites
When I made Vegan Ricotta and Spinach Lasagna the other day, I made a whole, whole lot of Pure Food and Wine’s pine nut ricotta. So much vegan ricotta. So little time. JK. There’s always time for vegan ricotta. Luckily, amongst the 6000 pounds of groceries I bought at Whole Foods that day (I am […]
Plum Sorbet
If the guy behind artisan jam booth hadn’t casually forgotten how much his itty bitty jars of jam cost (‘That’ll be $5′ ‘Ok so your booth says $3?’ ‘Oh I mean $3′) and tried to pull the jam over my eyes, my trip to the Greenmarket at Union Square last Monday would have been just like every […]
Quiche-of-the-Week: Jalfrezi Curry Seitan with Homemade Paneer
What’s more satisfying than making your own cheese? I don’t know.

But probably not. Cheese making is at the apex of all things satisfying. So […]
[Raw] [Vegan] Cucumber Veggie Rolls
What’s the easiest, almost-looks-fancy, toothpick related finger food you can make that doesn’t include pigs and blankets and pigs inside of said blankets? Vegan Cucumber Veggie Rolls. Raw ones. Or with cauliflower rice. Maybe. Damn girl, you look almost fancy. Also, ever since going full-blown vegetarian, I’ve learned to embrace vegetarian sushi. And maybe you’ve […]
Vegan Ricotta and Spinach Lasagna for Two
Back at the end of June (I checked Foursquare [it does have a point!]), my dad came to visit me in New York. If you want to know how much of a trooper my dad is, one night he agreed to take me out to a raw vegan restaurant in Gramercy Park that I was […]
Pomegranate Agave Vegan Ice Cream
When you work at a large, well-known, moderately expensive department store and there’s a One Day Home Sale (that lasts two days?) going strong on the 5th, 6th, and 7th floors, you suddenly remember that you’ve always wanted an ice cream maker attachment for your KitchenAid Stand Mixer. Or at least always since that morning. […]
Eggception Omelet: Fried
If you’re anything like me – a female? an aquarius? right-handed? always currently reclining on a couch? – you only like one thing more than eggs: More eggs. Inside of other eggs. That’s where the Eggception Omelet comes in. Sure, you can be satisfied with your Westerns, your Greeks, your Denvers. But those are not the […]
