Roasted Salt & Pepper Delicata Squash

My absolute favourite squash of all time is the gorgeous delicata squash. Not only is it beautiful, but it’s SO tasty! My favourite way to cook it is by roasting it in the oven with a bit of oil, salt & pepper. I can eat it as a snack on it’s own, that’s how good it…

How I Got Over My Cheese Addiction

Are you (or were you) addicted to cheese? Does giving up cheese scare the pants off of you? Sure, vegan food is delicious, but there is no way, no how that you could give up cheese. Right? If this sounds like you, I can relate. My addiction to cheese was real, and eliminating it from…

Pumpkin Donuts with Powdered Sugar Glaze

Pumpkin EVERYTHING is in full effect over at my house. What about yours? I’m eating this stuff like it’s candy, and I don’t see myself stopping any time soon! Not that I’m complaining or anything… The other day I opened up a can of pumpkin puree, just so I could smell it. SERIOUSLY. I had…

Crazy Good Baba Ganoush

Here’s a true story: Up until a few months ago, I had never eaten eggplant. Everyone I knew said it was either gross or bland or awful or terrible… you get the idea. So, believe me when I say I was disappointed when I received 2 of them in our farm share box in July….

Smoky Barbecue Chili with Vegan Sour Cream

I suppose I should get going on my shopping then,…
