Vegan Gardenburger Recipe
This is my homemade vegan take on the popular vegetarian Gardenburger that is sold in the stores. Made with whole foods such as mushrooms, brown rice and bulghur wheat. Before I followed a vegan diet, I enjoyed my fair share of Gardenburgers. They were sold in bulk at Costco, and made for a quick and […]

Recipe: “Old Fashioned” Vegan Baking Powder Biscuits (no shortening or oil!)
I love biscuits, but I don’t love the shortening old-fashioned biscuits call for. I have tried different recipes over the years, but they just don’t resemble the type of biscuit I longed for.

My 25¢ “No-Bucks” Latté
I have had my share of coffeehouse lattés in my time, and they are good. But, at around $7-$10 each for a vanilla latté, it’s not something I want to spend money on regularly. I can make these copycat lattés at home, for about 25¢ each! This is a savings of more than 95%. These […]

Tofu Chocolate Mousse
Don’t let the tofu part scare you! Myself, I love tofu, but I have served this to folks who don’t normally eat it, and “I can’t believe this is tofu” was a popular sentiment. This is really yummy, easy to prepare and only requires a few ingredients. It tastes rich, yet apart from the sugar […]

How to Make My Tofu Turkey: Step-by-Step
