This little dessert was inspired by Mark Bittman's delicious Strawberry Fool recipe which he calls "minimalist" because it is basically fresh strawberries in season and whipped cream. It occurred to me that I should try to make a vegan version, using whipped aquafaba (or the drained liquid from canned chickpeas!)...and lo and behold....it worked!! I added a little dark rhum ...

As I am still jet-lagged (Australia is 14 hours ... Read More »
Vegan Rustic Strawberry Galette
This Vegan Rustic Strawberry Galette is the vegan version of my Rustic Strawberry Galette! OH MY GOODNESS I am so excited that I was able to recreate it so closely to the original, because I have to admit, I thought it just couldn't be done (so glad I was wrong!!).

Updated July 2, 2018 (perfect timing for your 4th of July celebration, right?!) This one is from the archives but so relevant on these particularly hot summer days we are having here in Connecticut!

Curry Spinach Chickpea Salad
This vegetarian salad reminds me of the makings of a typical creamy chicken salad, with grapes and celery and walnuts...except without the chicken or the mayo!! Instead, I use chickpeas and my simply spinach dip with a little curry as its creamy dressing. The result is deliciously filled with nutrients and is very satisfying!

Caramelized Onion Walnut Burger (Vegan)
Caramelized onions and walnuts...WOW! The title alone says it all, doesn't it? This caramelized onion walnut burger is my latest vegan (and gluten-free) burger recipe and it is as deliciously superb as all my others--and that's a tough act to follow! Walnuts give it a wonderful rich taste and of course add healthy omega-3 fatty acids to its nutrition. I use sprouted red rice ... Read More »
Seared Black Rice & Beans (Vegan)
If you like traditional beans and rice, you will absolutely LOVE this seared black rice & beans recipe! The black rice (also called forbidden rice--here is why) just adds a nuttiness and almost meati-ness to this dish and because the rice is pan-seared in olive oil with the onions, garlic and fresh tomatoes before you add the liquid to it, it has that slightly ...
