The #1 BEST Chewy Vegan Gingerbread Cookies
This post may contain affiliate links. That means I may receive a commission if you purchase something from the links. See disclaimer here. Every holiday season needs gingerbread cookies to be complete, can we agree? If they’re vegan gingerbread cookies that’s even better in my opinion! So grab your ugly sweater apron (actually a thing btw, haha) and put on a sappy Hallmark Christmas movie so you can get baking. This post is all about chewy vegan gingerbread cookies My family’s Christmas Traditions: When I was a kid it was a family tradition to make gingerbread houses every year. We usually had a little friendly competition to see who’s house was the best.…

Chocolate Coated Pumpkin Spice Cups (Vegan+GF)
I can’t believe how quickly this month has passed by. I’m struggling to keep up with the season because the area I live in tends to switch between Summer and Winter and forget all about Autumn. We just had a record breaking first snow and I’m loving the beauty but also…..like seriously? I really wanted more Autumn. I feel jipped. 😐 Anyway, it’s making think about Christmas season and we’re not even to Halloween yet. Don’t worry, I’ll reign in my obsessive love of Christmas for at least a few more weeks. ;P Despite it feeling like Winter here already, I’m still in the mood for pumpkin spice everything. I was trying to…

Pumpkin Spice Granola (Vegan+GF)
Guys, guys, omg I’m just really excited Autumn is here! So this year hasn’t exactly given us much to look forward to but over my dead body is 2020 going to ruin the Holiday season for me. You feel me? Okay, this granola is probably my new favorite and that’s saying something because I make granola pretty often. Baking anything and everything with pumpkin and spices is always the quickest way to get into the Autumn mood. The only thing I’m slightly disappointed that I didn’t do with this recipe is add some pecans or walnuts. I just didn’t have any on hand because I’d already used them all. I mean, it’s…

Broccoli & Cashew Pesto Pasta (Vegan+GF)
How is it already getting into September? And how is it that this year seems to be taking forever and yet flying by all at the same time?? It’s definitely a strange year and I think we can all agree it hasn’t been the easiest. Making meals at home is definitely a form of therapy for me that helps to get through hard times. I’ve especially enjoyed my time in my own kitchen since my schedule makes that a more rare thing right now than it used to be. This pesto pasta is something that I made a recently when I was craving some comfort food. Pesto is one of those foods that…

Creamy Peanut Pad Thai Noodles (Vegan+GF)
I don’t know about you but I really, really love noodle dishes and am always excited to add them to the menu for lunch or dinner. Of course, they can be pretty heavy sometimes so that’s why I love to freshen them up with lots of colorful veggies and, of course, plenty of flavors! In case you haven’t noticed I’ve been having a thing with both peanut butter and Asian foods recently. Wow, I never thought of myself as being one-track minded but maybe I was wrong. I can, however, admit to being a creature of habit and returning again and again to the same things when I find a favorite so this…

No-Bake Vanilla Cashew Cheesecakes (Vegan+GF)
When life gives you Summer strawberries in abundance……..you make vanilla cheesecake to contrast their gorgeous color and highlight their sweet tart flavor! Seriously though, strawberries are a steal right now. We have too many so I’ve been trying to come up with more ways to eat them and use them in new recipes. Quite a happy task for someone who loves berries as much as I do. I just love that they can go well with so many things, savory and sweet. Anyway, this recipe isn’t even about strawberries necessarily, it’s about these delicious cashew vanilla cheesecakes. So to be honest, I’ve had a lot of challenges finding a vegan cheesecake recipe that…

Vietnamese Bahn Mi Bowls (Vegan+GF)
I’m trying to figure out why our Summer here seems to have gone on vacation. The weather forecast for this week is cold and rainy even though it’s freaking July. I guess it’s better than the alternative of scorching heat, but it’s kinda depressing. What’s not depressing though, is this recipe…. Ok, before you say anything, I’m completely aware that this bowl doesn’t make a huge amount of sense. Bahn mi actually means “bread” in Vietnamese so not having bread is a kind of like missing the point and insulting this Vietnamese classic. In case you haven’t noticed, I don’t do well with rules and I just don’t feel like following any when…
