You guys are gonna love me extra lots today, even though I'm not sharing any recipes. I collected all my GIFs and put them in one post for you! Look at the food! It's moving! The one above is brand new and will be featured in my cookbook. It's a ginger lime cheesecake swirled with berry ice cream, all raw and vegan of course. The ones below

Hey there, pretty people. Today I share one mega delish recipe with you, and it's not dessert (finally)! This pizza is gonna blow your mind; I ate almost the entire thing myself. I recommend you it with avocado slices and parma on top. I don't have the recipe actually typed into this post because it's a guest post on Skinny Limits, so you can

Every time I visit my friend Kathy's blog, I'm inspired in one way or another. Kathy's recipes are sumptuous yet simple, and they're always so creative. Kathy also introduces me to lots of new ingredients and flavors. Most recently, I have her to thank for the matcha, finely milled green tea powder that has put [...]

Yesterday, I was in New York for party celebrating the marriage of two dear friends. Both of these friends are vegan, as were the hosts, which meant that the event turned into a veritable vegan potluck: grain and bean salads, “hippie loaf” (a kind of quinoa meatloaf), summer rolls, potato salad, and desserts of every [...]

Happy weekend, friends. Intense rain seems to have given way to a break in the clouds here on the east coast, so I've been enjoying every balmy moment today. I wanted to take a quick break to tell you about a yoga class I took in NYC some time ago. I haven't been writing about [...]

Remember the vegan pesto I shared two weeks ago? Today, in my New Veganism column at Food52, I’m celebrating spring flavors by sharing a perfect vegan pizza: arugula and aparagus pesto pizza. Vegan pizza might sound like a contradiction in terms, since so many of us associate pizza with cheese. But a variety of sauces [...]

What better way to end the series of Portland posts than with the dish that, to me, defined Portland…bowls! They were such an iconic dish there that for two weeks after getting back to Atlanta, I just made bowls and only bowls. We had these two lovely bowls at a small neighborhood joint, Canteen. Neal got […]

I’ve never met a fungi that I didn’t like love. The first time I saw king trumpet mushrooms (aka king oyster, French horn..) was on ASTIG vegan’s site. I was in awe of this fungus that looked so much like scallops when sliced. Since then, they lingered in the back of my mind but I […]

I spent this past weekend with dear friends of mine in Crystal Lake, which is about 45 miles northwest of Chicago. It was a staycation of sorts. It was relaxing, but not “sit on the couch and be lazy” relaxing. It was fun, but not “let’s get wasted and go crazy” fun. It was far […]

I’m not often vocal about my decision to turn veganese for a few reasons. One, I’m not often in the mood to get into a discussion about why/how I made my choice. Two, once people know I’m vegan, my food choices get scrutinized (“PIZZA ISN’T VEGAN, YOU KNOW” or “That’s all you’re eating? How sad.”).

I haven’t cooked in awhile (I’m a lazy vegan, remember?) but I had a serious craving for kare kare last week. I think it was triggered by seeing the beginnings of my Dad’s garden this summer, particularly the eggplant. I’m so spoiled by the garden! Alas, there are no veggies yet. Thank goodness for grocery […]

The standard pastry crust makes me feel guilty. Me, the one who snarfed down the cinnamon-sugar coated scraps that my mom baked up after completing an apple pie. Me, the one who carefully ate around the thick and nubby, crusty rim of a pie and saved it for very last. I’m the one who always […]

Kohlrabi Tops and Bulbs with Mushrooms and LentilsHow did I make it to 48 years without ever having tasted a kohlrabi?
