Okay so I think I have officially hit a rough patch...it's not always easy being vegetarian/vegan when the rest of your family isn't. I think my oldest daughter and husband are going through meat withdrawal. I had to break down and buy pork chops to prepare for dinner for them because I was starting to feel so bad. It got me to thinking just how much we associate care and love of our families

Happy Valentine's Day! My mission was to make a really yummy Valentine's Day treat that was totally vegan. But, most cookie recipes that I have made in the past have lots of butter, butter, butter! That's what makes it so good, right? Well, this recipe proves that vegans can enjoy a delicious cookie, too. These cookies are really beautiful and the flavor of the dough is very unique. It's the

Out of all my experimental vegetarian and vegan cooking attempts so far...this is my absolute FAVORITE recipe. It is sooo good! I seriously think that everyone will love this recipe. I have to give credit where credit is due - the recipe is by Giada De Laurentiis of the Food Network. I adapted it slightly to fit my taste and the ingredients I had on hand the day I made it. It is elegant, hearty

Hi everyone! So, a few weeks ago, I decided to become a vegetarian easing into a vegan lifestyle. It has been something I have read about and looked into for years now. I had been slowly cutting back on beef and pork in my diet for the last year. There have been a series of events over this past year that have made eating animal products less and less appealing for me. The final straw was viewing
