For breakfast, look to none other than coconut milk to create a sweet, vanilla-flavored yogurt that is easy to digest and reminiscent of Summer. For this recipe, I create a parfait using apricots and green apple. Feel free to use whatever fruits you like. Enjoy!

Polenta & Sweet Potato Pizza
May 16, 2013 – 8:08 am
I created a polenta pizza topped with sautéed sweet potatoes and mixed veggies. It’s a unique twist on an Italian classic, using flavors that won’t really remind you of pizza at all, but it will feign the pizza experience. It is absolutely delicious and can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Make sure you [...]

I’m always interested in noodle varieties that are not plain white noodles. Soba noodles are buckwheat-based, which means they are easier on digestion and introduce new flavors to my palette. This recipe keeps it simple with a few vegetables. Enjoy!

Ultimate Vegan Chocolate Party Cake
May 7, 2013 – 8:08 am
This cake didn’t last very long. Among three girls and a vacant fork aside the cake as it sat on the table to cool down, this vegan chocolate cake never made it to the party. Not what you’d expect from a cake without eggs and milk, eh? Make these into cupcakes or make multiple layers. [...]
Black Peppered Green Plate
May 2, 2013 – 9:05 am
I really adore peas, but I’m used to buying them in a can, when they’re already softened by a brine and somewhat at a loss of nutrients. Using fresh peas, I was able to enjoy peas in a healthier, unprocessed way. And green beans were never my cup of tea, until I learned how delicious [...]
Simple Turnip Gratin
April 27, 2013 – 8:08 am
I’m in love with turnips and I didn’t know that until this week! I’ve never cooked with them before, because for some reason, I assumed that they were bitter like radishes. Au contraire! It’s mellow in flavor and actually quite delicious raw. For this recipe, I cook it like I would a potato in a [...]

Instead of corn bread, why not corn balls? They complement a meal with a starchy side note and offer a warm, comforting flavor to the experience. These simple corn bread balls are done in minutes and spiced lightly with black pepper. Enjoy!
Vegan Banana Bread with Dried Apricots
April 23, 2013 – 5:44 am
The aroma of banana bread baking has got to be up there among the most comforting scents in the world. But despite banana bread’s breakfast-time status, it’s often not much healthier or forgiving than a dessert cake, because of the sugar, milk and white flour. This time, what’s coming out of the oven will be [...]

I’m always on the lookout for desserts that give me that post-meal sweetness I crave without overdosing on the sugar or fat. This is a fresh dessert or snack recipe that has just enough chocolate in there to satisfy your needs. The fresh mint adds an extra element of lightness that keeps your breath fresh [...]
