  • Avocado Polenta Toast Bites

    I made a new version of avocado toast.  Avocado on top of toasted polenta rounds!  I am so happy with this creation.  I had a partially-eaten tube of polenta in my fridge and thought “I had better think of some way to use this up!  Maybe breakfast tomorrow…but wah, I want avocado toast for breakfast! …

  • Sweet Apple Cider Oatmeal

    I have been going through apple cider like nobody’s business. I bought a gallon of it in Apple Hill and slowly had a small glass almost everyday until it went away.  Preston tried to pour himself a gigantic glass full and I set him straight 😉 so it lasted for a nice long time.  Just…

  • Apple Pie Sweet Potato Breakfast

    I had such a fun Saturday morning breakfast this weekend!  I was really tempted to eat a slice of apple pie for breakfast.  But sometimes I just want to cook.  Okay, a lot of the time.  So I made myself a pie-reminiscent breakfast.  But with a bit more nutrition too 🙂  I baked a sweet…

  • Pumpkin & Almond Croissants

    Yes, yet another pumpkin recipe! Trader Joe’s is selling pumpkin croissants this year.  I want them.  They are not vegan.  Fine!  I will make my own.  Take that, Trader Joe’s! I made a quickie version that is ridiculously fast, super satisfying, and a really fun fall breakfast.  Or dessert!

  • Raw Matcha Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites

    Here’s an easy delicious little raw treat!  I made a matcha-free version of these last week (but ate them all before I took any pictures.  Oops.)  This morning I woke up needing a small treat before my workout, which normally would be my breakfast truffles.  For a special treat, I whipped up some of these! …

  • Overnight Steel Cut Oats Muesli

    Did you know you can have overnight oats with steel cut oats?  You can eat them raw.  Just need to soak ’em and soften ’em! It’s a truly terrific way to start your day.  This little bowl of goodies is so darn filling! 

  • Maple Pecan Breakfast Truffles

    Happy Friday, folks!I was a little preoccupied with my new job earlier this week – just nerves of starting, making sure I had all my little ducks in a row, and celebrating the start! Then I found myself with an unexpected four day weekend!  Hoorah!  I am so excited. Yesterday was spent being thoroughly lazy.  The…

  • Brie, Basil & Dark Chocolate Panini

    I have an amazing decadent recipe for you.  As soon as I found that vegan brie I raved about earlier, I knew I had to make this recipe.  My favorite brie recipe from my pre-vegan days.  Aside from being magically delicious, I love this recipe because it is the first (that I can remember) Giada…

  • Lots o’ Dried Blueberries Granola

    Whew.  Hump day’s over. I don’t know about you, but I had a particularly never-ending day, which isn’t really like me.  Maybe it’s because I didn’t really get my relaxation on this weekend, or maybe it’s just because I’m a little moody.  But I’m so happy this day has finally ended.  I also have fantastic…

  • Tofu Huevos Rancheros (w/ the Vegg)

    Happy Friday, folks! I have an exciting post for you today that is long overdue.  I was really fortunate to receive a sample of this awesome product – The Vegg.  It is a vegan egg yolk.  Just mix with water. Guys, I cannot tell you how awesome this is.  I promise I’m not saying it…
