These are the slightly less popular cousin to my double chocolate coconut vegan cookies. For that reason, you will notice that many of the ingredients/ instructions are exactly the same. In fact, I often make the base recipe (steps 1-3) then split the batter in half and make half of the cookies into the chocolate [...]

This is my (no longer) secret recipe. I made it up in high school, and after many, many, many failed batches of gluten free baked goods (including muffins that literally bounced), these are really something special. I say that because most people will kind of frown at first and say, “Gluten free vegan cookies…? What’s [...]

In honor of the bunches of green onions and big, green bags of spinach at our Farmer’s market, I made spanakopita – Greek spinach pie – last week. Though, between eating it for dinner late one night when the lighting was bad and eating a bite every time I neared the fridge for the next [...]

I won a pizza-making contest with this. It’s quite an embellishment on a good friend of mine’s famous salmon and onion pizza. It’s very time consuming, but extremely worth it. To keep things simple, I’m breaking the different components up into chronological sections. Sweet and Spicy Salmon Sauce 1 tablespoon honey 1 tablespoon crushed garlic [...]
