Blackberry BBQ Pulled Jackfruit Sandwiches+Cilantro Pepper Slaw (Vegan+GF)
If that’s not a mouthful of a title then I don’t know what is. I couldn’t decide what to name this recipe as there is so much going on here. Okay, at some point I have to stop always trying to convince you to make something that I have made and received rave reviews about. However…..this is not that day. I am about to do everything I can to persuade you to make these sandwiches! This is one of those rare recipes that comes together in my mind with ease. Pure inspiration that leads to a finished product that I feel almost guilty taking any credit for because it was just too easy.…

Irish “Cheddar” Potato Soup (Vegan+GF)
Are you feeling lucky today? I’m feeling pretty lucky but it has more to do with deliciousness than leprechauns and clovers. I have to say that I’ve never really gotten the whole St. Patrick’s day thing but it is fun to have a theme to go with. So what exactly makes this soup Irish? Um, actually I don’t know. I mean, it’s got potatoes so doesn’t that automatically make it count. Hmmm, that sounds kind of discriminating. I bet the Irish get annoyed by everyone thinking they live on potatoes. I’ve live in Idaho for years now and I can’t tell you how many people have asked me if we ate a lot…

Harvest Time Apple Streusel Swirl Bread (Vegan)
Are you in the mood for some warm, yeasty bread, sweet apples, cinnamon spice, and plenty of crumbly streusel! I don’t think there will ever be any question whether or not this is one of the best flavor combinations known to man. Ah, it’s so good! By now you’re probably starting to catch on to the fact that I like to recreate my family’s favorite foods. Things that we don’t have access to in Chile. I enjoy the challenge. This is one of my recent attempts to copy a classic. One of my sisters used to have this slight obsession with apple bread and she’s been missing it a lot since moving…

Homemade Peanut Butter Crunch Breakfast Cereal Puffs (Vegan+GF)
So I’m writing this from my new house and even though I’m not all moved in yet, we’re working on getting things set up. Today I wanted to do a throwback recipe from something my pregnant sister was craving back when we lived in Chile. One of her cravings was really random; peanut butter Cap’n Crunch. That’s pretty random, right? I knew there was no way we were going to be able to find anything remotely close down there unless I made it. It’s hard enough just to find peanut butter there. It was clear since we moved there that there is a general dislike of peanut butter in Chile’s culture so the…

Vegan Italian Cream Cake + Cream Cheese Frosting
Take an afternoon to bake this delicate and timeless vegan Italian cream cake. Your family and friends will love you and probably won’t believe it’s vegan! Every great recipe deserves and amazing introduction right? Wrong. This post is all about the BEST Vegan Italian Cream Cake and Dairy Free Cream Cheese Frosting Well, okay this cake is absolutely incredible and it certainly deserves it’s share of talk. However, I’d say it’s reputation precedes it and therefore it doesn’t need too much explaining. On the other hand, I don’t know if I can help myself. I mean, no other cake can boast such classic Southern charm. In my family this is sort of an…

Homemade Peanut Butter (Vegan+GF)
Peanut butter is a huge staple in our house, and we use it almost everyday. As you know, I love making homemade things so this is one I had to share! I have only made peanut butter once in my life and it was unintentional. I was actually trying to make peanut flour for some recipes but I processed it too long. I can’t believe I haven’t made it more often. It is totally addicting and so easy! Skip the long ingredient lists on store-bought peanut butters by making it yourself. It's easy, cheap, and delicious of course! You can also make chocolate peanut butter, add spices, or add chocolate chunks. If…
