Another vegan burger has entered my life, and it’s quite delicious. Using sweet potato and white beans as the base, the burger holds together when cooked, but has a softer bite. Balanced with a few spices and veggies, it’s a nutrition-packed way to enjoy a burger but without all the fillers. Enjoy!

VegNews Video: Vegan Burrito
December 22, 2012 – 3:54 am
Alas, I share with you a VegNews video for my vegan burrito. I must say this is one of my most satisfying meals to whip up vegan style. It has the density and protein from the white bean “cheese”, the flavor from the spicy sautéed vegetable and kidney bean mixture, and just the right cool [...]
Raw Spiralized Pasta with Tahini Tomato Dressing
November 15, 2012 – 8:08 am
I’ve made raw zucchini before – almost 2 years ago. My photography/presentation skills were lackluster to say the least. Today’s recipe isn’t a far departure from the original concept, it just has a few tweaks here and there to complement my pantry and the season. This time, the sauce is tahini based and brings richness [...]
Vegan Gravy
September 28, 2012 – 7:33 am
As we set the stage for Autumn, it’s about time you perfect a gravy recipe before the Holidays roll around. This is my go-to vegan version, and it’s quite delicious! And always remember, always use a wine that you’d actually drink. Enjoy!
Vegan White Cheese Party Dip
August 29, 2012 – 8:08 am
This vegan cheese party dip will attract taste buds young and old at the next party, and it’s vegan! Normal butter works well – that’s how I usually make it – but vegan butter fits the bill just fabulously. Served warm or cold, the cauliflower dip is packed with flavor despite the few ingredients. Dig [...]
VegNewsTV: Simple Vegan Sweet Potato Macaroni and Cheese
August 28, 2012 – 3:00 am
I present to you my second video contribution too VegNewsTV. Of all the vegan macaroni and cheese recipes out there, none has really seemed that appealing. I am not a fan of nut cheeses or artificial vegan “cheese” found at the grocer. Nut cheeses are heavy and unnatural to eat – you’d be surprised the [...]
Crispy Corn Fritters
August 10, 2012 – 8:08 am
I am always thinking of new ways to make a burger. Not in that I seek to mimic the burger taste, but rather the heft. In the end, the formula is relatively constant – the burger usually comprises some sort of bean or grain, spices, and a liquid to bind it all together. And this [...]
EcoSalon: Homemade Doritos
August 9, 2012 – 8:08 am
Cool Ranch Doritos have to be, by far, my favorite junk food. I was obsessed as a child. Just obsessed. Today, I rarely eat them because of their not-so-forgiving nutritional stats and the fact that they have MSG in them. MSG is not your friend – it can cause of slew of health problems, from [...]
Macaroni & Cheese
June 19, 2012 – 10:01 am
This recipe is a vegan version of macaroni and cheese. The cheese has a sweet potato base. Skeptical? I was too until I tried it. The sweet potato is baked and mixed with strong flavors to give it the “cheesy” touch. Combined with a whole-grain or whole-wheat pasta, the result is a rich, satisfying macaroni [...]
Vegan, Noodle-Free Lasagna
June 15, 2012 – 2:04 pm
Yes, that’s right kids. Nothing naughty about this dish, except for maybe that it feels naughty. Steamy, creamy and layered to perfection, my vegan version of the ultimate comfort food – lasagna – skips the carbs and fat by upping the ante on veggies. The secret is in the sweet potato.
