Paleo Vegan Chocolate Almond Cookie Bars
So, I made these and they are really, really good. That’s all I’ve got today because it’s Friday and school is out for the summer and it’s time for me to do something other than sit in front of a screen. Who am I kidding? I’m going to hide from my kids in a…

Super Easy Potato Leek Soup
My 20 year old daughter is a vegan who also doesn’t eat gluten or onions. Gluten I can cook without. There are plenty of options. Meat is optional, too. BUT ONIONS? I cook with onions almost every day. So, when she comes over for family dinner, I always try to have something here for her…

Date/Nut/Ginger/Oat/Currant/Coconut…Balls.
My partner’s mother (who I would call my mother in law, except we aren’t married, and don’t get me started on THAT) brought this book to me from the old country. The old country being Wisconsin. Inside the book was a printed recipe that looks like it might have come out of a magazine. It…

Lime Mint Chickpea Salad
After a brief hiatus, I’m back with some new light vegan spring recipes! The butter, bacon, lamb and egg yolks didn’t agree with a certain member of our family, who discovered that his cholesterol was elevated and that he’d gained a few pounds over the holidays. Rather than outright accusing me of trying to kill…

Vegan Whipped Cream
Today is day one of the “100 days of vegan” challenge. I’m not going vegan or making any new year’s resolutions. I’m cooking/baking/creating something vegan every day. First up, a little bit of heaven. I would rather eat this than dairy whipped cream any day. 1 Can Coconut Milk (14 ounces) 2 Tbs Powdered…
