Biscuits & Gravy

Biscuits & Gravy

Ah, Biscuits and Gravy, one of Ryan’s all-time favorite dishes.  Before I stopped eating meat, I’d never had “real” biscuits and gravy.  Being the picky eater that I was, the idea of blobby, white sausage gravy grossed me out.  Gravy was definitely not something I ate as a kid, and even as an adult I [...]

Cherry Almond Loaf

Cherry Almond Loaf

The other day when I was looking for a particular post, I came across this photo in a draft that I had totally forgotten about.  I have no idea how this slipped through the cracks!  I meant to write about it this summer, and just forgot I guess.  Poor loaf.
I made this when Ryan and [...]

Strawberry Loaf with White Chocolate Chips

I love strawberries, but no matter how many I eat, I always seem to have a bunch left-over in the fridge.  I usually end up dealing with them once half of them are past saving, and I cut the rest up and throw them in the freezer for smoothies.  I know that next time I [...]

Vegas & Vegan Donuts!

We went to Vegas for my cousin’s wedding this past weekend (congrats Michael and Sheraleen!) and of course made a stop at Ronald’s Donuts!  I’d never been there before, but Ryan had brought some back for me on a past trip.  Normally I’m more a fan of cake donuts, but these things are pretty amazing.  [...]

Sugar Donut Muffin and the LA Veggie Pride Parade!

Sugar Donut Muffin and the LA Veggie Pride Parade!

I was looking around the Baking Bites website one day and I came across this recipe for Sugar Donut Muffins that looked really yummy and really easy to veganize.  This actually does taste like a delicious cross between a donut and a muffin.  I’ve since made some tweaks to the recipe, but I’ll post the [...]
