Baba Ganoush is one of the most underrated mezze plates in my opinion. It always play second fiddle to hummus and that seems really unfair. Don’t get me wrong, I love hummus and its beautiful versatility, but baba ganoush doesn’t get enough credit. It is also really easy to make! Which was lucky for meContinue reading “Baba Ganoush”

Butternut Squash and Jackfruit Enchiladas
The Mexican food scene in Burlington is bleak at best. It has a very casual tex-mex vibe, with minimal gluten free and vegan options. While this works for some, it hasn’t for me. I miss greasy midwestern Mexican with endless baskets of chips and salsa (which I know is also not authentic). All this hasContinue reading “Butternut Squash and Jackfruit Enchiladas”
Roasted Garlic Vegan Aioli

Those are the key here: Root vegetables typicallyContinue reading “Nut free vegan cheez sauce”
Coconut Yogurt/Buttermilk
I’ve started making my own vegan yogurt, cause why not? But really because there is all kinds of stuff in store bought yogurt that I simply don’t want to put in my body as regularly as I eat the stuff. Not that it is soooo awful, it’s just the less preservatives and processed stuff IContinue reading “Coconut Yogurt/Buttermilk”
Cheesy Taco Seasoning
This recipe is my cooking crutch. When in doubt I add this to veggies, potatoes, hummus, popcorn, anything and it will come out tasting fantastic. Primarily though I use it to flavor my chickpeas for tacos and for my family’s biweekly (if not weekly) popcorn dinner feast. It’s super easy and the nutritional yeast givesContinue reading “Cheesy Taco Seasoning”
