My Ultimate Avocado Toast (Also, Hi!)
Hi, remember me? I left this space rather unceremoniously back in 2014, over 3 years ago (eek!). To summarize how I was feeling at the time, I put a lot of unnecessary pressure on myself surrounding the bog. I compared my photos, recipes, and voice to other bloggers, which isn’t very fair or productive. I was…
Tuesday Book Review: The Hunger Games
Well, I didn’t get any recommendations after my last book review. Although Mom did inform me that she wrote her high school senior thesis on East of Eden. I’m thinking that no one writes their senior thesis on The Hunger Games. Actually, I take that back – I’m sure that in my old high school alone, dozens…
Weekend + Gluten-Free Cranberry-Orange Walnut Tart
What a great weekend! I am so tired. I said that I just wanted to sleep this weekend. But it turns out there was a lot of other stuff I wanted to do, too! So now I’m drinking green tea, hoping it will keep me up long enough to finish this post before I faceplant…
Farro Risotto with Butternut Squash and Kale
Happy Friday! Do you need the weekend as much as I do? Last weekend, I had a whole list of things to cook and bake. I woke up early on Saturday morning energized to get started, and just kept going all weekend. As much fun as it was to try out a bunch of new…
Shredded Brussels Sprouts with Garlic and Lemon
Have I told you that I love vegetables? Probably. There’s no way I could be vegan if I didn’t. Have I told you that sometimes, while I’m chopping vegetables, I’m chopping with one hand and eating with the other? Nate has to witness this all the time. (Sorry hun.) But he’s usually busy trying to…
Fudgy Chocolate Pumpkin Cake
I had planned on posting about something completely different today. But then I thought that would be unfair, because I’ve had chocolate on the brain all week. So obviously everyone should. Also, do you see this cake? It is fudgy, pumpkiny and vegan. I really hope you’re not sick of pumpkin yet, because this cake…
Simple Guacamole
Guacamole makes everything better, don’t you think? Chips. Tacos. Spoons. Tuesdays. All made tastier by mashed-up avocado goodness. As for this post, I’m not so sure it’s a “recipe.” It’s really just… the way I make guacamole. Everyone has the guac ingredients and method they swear by. Salsa vs. tomatoes, chunky vs. smooth, food processor…
Weekend + Gingery Peanut Soba Noodles
Good morning. How was your weekend? Mine was SNOWY. We got over a foot of snow here in Salt Lake, and about 4 feet up in the mountains! That means skiing next weekend for sure. Hooray! Friday night Nate and I braved the storm to go out for dinner at Sage’s Cafe, our favorite vegan…
Roasted Fall Veggie Pizza with Balsamic and Rosemary
Do you have some homemade pizza dough handy? Oh good. Because tonight is pizza night! And we’re starting with: Rosemary. There is so much rosemary in my life lately. It might have something to do with the stuffed peppers I made a few weeks ago that required only a teaspoon of rosemary. Really any recipe that…
