Vegan Pumpkin Alfredo
It’s finally fall and that means all the pumpkin flavors you can handle. This recipe may seem surprising, but having used pumpkin purée with pasta before I hoped it would turn out as delicious as it did.

Vegetarian Eggs Benedict
I'm calling this recipe a benedict, but really I think it might just be a fancy toast. The main reason for this being that I royally screwed up my hollandaise sauce. But does a benedict have to have sauce? Does a benedict have to have meat? If so, then this is totally not an eggs…

Homemade Plain Bagels
I am a breakfast fanatic. It is hands down my favorite meal of the day and one of my favorite meals to cook. It's even more satisfying to make breakfast with breads that I've made myself. I've used my french bread recipe for french toast, regular toast and avocado toast - all of which were…
Easy Salmon Foil Packets with Wild Rice
I decided about 3 years ago now to stop eating poultry, beef and pork. Much of my decision was based on how the meat industry works as whole, but another huge factor is my love for animals. I grew up having chickens, pigs, cows, goats and other farm type animals. I knew that each one…
Grown Up Grilled Cheese
I love to cook. I find it relaxing, methodic in a way and of course, I love to eat. About a year ago, I had fallen into a slump. I felt like I was cooking the same recipes again and again, and felt like I needed to mix things up a bit. I tried looking…
