Sorry for being MIA

November 23, 2008

I wanted to write quick post because although I don’t have any tasty dishes to share, I do appreciate all the kind comments and especially the award.  Work has been keeping me quite busy lately, but now that I am taking some time off for Thanksgiving I plan to get back to cooking.  Expect some [...]

Thai-Inspired Vegan Lettuce Wraps

November 14, 2008

Chocolate Peanut Butter Gianduja

November 9, 2008

Artichoke, Spinach, and Feta Stuffed Shells

The recipe was for Artichoke, Spinach, and Feta Stuffed Shells from CookingLight.com. As soon as I read the reviews for the recipe I knew it [...]

Buffalo-Style Stuffed Seitan

November 3, 2008

Near the end of VeganMoFo I came up with a list of vegan foods that I wanted to make before the month was out. Unfortunately I didn’t have a chance to get to stuffed seitan, homemade veganaise, or fronch toast. I’m hoping that before the year’s end I’ll have a chance to try each of [...]
