Sweet Rainier Cherry Pie (Vegan)
Who wants some pie? Just in case you missed what I just said, we’re making cherry pie! Okay, so here’s the deal, I made this pie the other day because I couldn’t help myself. The weather finally feels like summer and I couldn’t resist the temptation to use some of the huge amounts of fruit that are in season right now. I seem to be obsessed with fruit lately. The Summer season brings a lot of people to the town where I live so the air just has an extra layer of excitement and celebration. It’s just kinda fun living in a sought after tourist destination. Of course, then I’m trying to drive…

PB&J Granola Parfaits (Vegan+GF)
Tell me if you can relate to this. I love to cook for people and I love to make huge, elaborate meals for big groups and I’ll spend hours in the kitchen. When I’m cooking for just me though, I’m not even willing to get a bowl out of the cabinet to put food in sometimes. I’ll literally just eat random stuff out of a box or grab something that requires zero prep. My roomies make fun of me and say I eat like a savage sometimes and they’re not wrong. Haha, I think years of food blogging has ruined my civilized kitchen habits. But again, the moment I have someone to cook…

This post is all about the best vegan banana bread waffles I have this problem where I always buy way too many bananas at once and they all ripen at the same time. I think a lot of people have the same problem which is probably how banana bread got invented. Before making these I had I thought about making banana bread but then realized I hadn’t used my Mini Waffle Maker in a long time. To be honest, it’s not the most convenient thing if you’re…

Fudgy Peanut Butter Vegan Protein Brownies
Who says you can’t have dessert with benefits? These vegan protein brownies are decadent for sure but they’re also made with some extra health. Enjoy these for dessert, afternoon snack, or even an indulgent breakfast. One of the absolute best questions to ask someone who eats plant-based/vegan is where they get their protein. I’m being a little sarcastic here but I also have some pretty smartass answers to this question that are pretty fun to deliver on the right occasion. My favorite; “I get my protein the same place your protein gets its protein and skip the middle-man.” This post is all about vegan protein brownies Hey, for the most part I avoid…

Un-fried Veggie Stir-Fry Rice (Vegan+GF)
Is it finally almost over, the craziness? This year has been anything but expected and I’m sure we’re all eager to return to whatever “normal” we left behind a few months ago. On the upside, I’ve definitely been able to spend more time on the blog than I could’ve imagined. I haven’t created so many recipes in a long time. I’ve actually been trying to look at this situation in the best, most positive light. I feel very fortunate to be in a position where I can work from home during all of this. Yes, I’ve missed socializing with friends and I’ll be very happy to get that back, but this time has…
