Nasoya & Veggie Dip

I’m pretty confident that if you’ve been living a vegan/vegetarian lifestyle, you’ve seen Nasoya products where you buy groceries – and you’ve probably eaten their tofu, too. To help me celebrate an “Eggless Easter” this year, the lovely people at Nasoya sent me sample bottles of their vegan Nayonaise spreads. I received both the regular, egg [...]

Veggie Grill

Today, I’d like to share one of our current, and luckily local, favorite vegan restaurants the VeggieGrill!

All menu items are vegan – 100% plant-based. AND [...]

Simple Summer Dish – Squash & Zucchini

It’s summer and if you’re invited to any sort of dinner/BBQ and asked to bring a tasty “veggie” dish…here’s one that should work out really well for you! I loved making it because basically other than buying the squash and zucchini, I had all the ingredients (and, in fact, I did have 2 zucchinis ready [...]

Biscoff Spread – Yummy & Vegan?!

So finding this delicious spread happened in one of those instances when it’s a good idea to tell just about everyone you see that you’re vegan (this isn’t always the case, but more on that another time). A co-worker of mine came over to me to tell me about his “spread” he had tried that [...]

Cinnaholic = JOY

Cinnaholic = Joy yep, that’s all I could come up with as a title to this post. Joy is not a word I use often, but it’s what popped into my head when I was thinking about how I felt when I finally got to Cinnaholic. You could say I’m a little crazy (cuckoo, nutso, [...]

Couscous, Black Bean & Corn Salad

Happy Meatless Monday everyone!! I made this couscous salad for a bar-b-que we had with the kids yesterday on Mother’s Day. Our first BBQ of the season! This salad was super easy to make – and easy to improvise with if you’re running short of time and have to use what you have on hand [...]

What is The Vegg? Well, it’s another vegan egg replacer – but [...]

Green Tip Tuesday – Eco Cosmetics

Lately I’ve been getting lots of questions on eco-friendly cosmetic products – do I use them and do I have recommendations? So, I thought I’d start sharing some of my favorites on Green Tip Tuesday now and again. Now, I’m no an expert. In fact, I’m continually learning, but in my ongoing attempts at creating [...]

Baked Better Breads

I love when a company understands that while we all want to eat well (organic and healthy) sometimes it’s nice to make creating  foods at home a little simpler – especially for us working folk. The Baked Better organic bread mix company gets this. Which is why they’ve created these 3 organic bread mixes that [...]

Happy Valentine’s Day

Ahhh, Valentine’s Day! That special day where anything chocolate is fair game! Yes, I know it’s more than that. It’s about showing that special someone you love them with cards, flowers, special dinners, etc. But I’m going to be honest here, my special someone is off on a trip right now, so today is all [...]

Meatless Monday – Lazy Stuffed Peppers

Almost exactly a year ago I posted a similar recipe on stuffed peppers. So, you’re probably asking why am I posting again? The answer is probably because I haven’t made them since then, and I just got reacquainted with how very easy they can be to make – especially if you have a local Trader [...]

Three Cheers for CHIA! (and for Health)

So, you know those Chia Head/Chia Pet crazy commercials showing those completely hysterical hope-you-don’t-get-one-as-a-white-elephant-gift heads with growing green hair coming out of them? Well, who knew that those little chia seeds used to grow said “hair” on these items were so stinkin’ good for you? I didn’t, until I initially read about them on my [...]
