It has been ages since I’ve done a book review. And I have a stack of brilliant cookbooks that deserve reviews but I haven’t gotten around to it. And I have no idea if I will. I have really good intentions but I only have so much time and energy. But when I received a copy of [...]

When Chris and I first decided to go vegan, transitioning to our new lifestyle was like venturing into a whole new world. We (I) had to learn, not only how to cook and prepare vegan food, but how to efficiently plan out our meals, research the new items/ingredients we needed to purchase, figure out how to [...]

Mine and Chris’s first phone call (to set up our first date) went something like this: Me: Well, I’m vegetarian, so no steak houses. Otherwise I can usually find something to eat anywhere. Chris: I’m vegetarian too! So let’s go to a vegetarian or vegan restaurant! Me: Awesome! And that was that. I know ideal [...]

Oats and I go way back. Our friendship probably began with some iced oatmeal cookies from a certain cookie company that shall remain nameless. From that point on, anything baked with Oats- I was all over it. When I got older, I finally figured out how to make oatmeal in a way that I liked [...]

I’ve always liked tacos but when I became vegan, my affection for these simple-yet-gratifying handheld bundles of deliciousness really reached a whole new level. Before going vegan, I’d never really looked beyond meat and/or beans and/or cheese as fillings for tacos but now there is a whole realm of delectable possibilities to pile on a tortilla, [...]

“Do you want a piece?” I asked my husband. “What’s in it again?” Chris asked, very hesitantly. “It’s an orange, almond, and olive oil cake with a chocolate orange glaze and marcona almonds.” He scrunched up his nose. “No thanks. You know I don’t like mixing my chocolate with fruity flavors. Especially orange. I’ll just [...]

When I first became vegan, I felt an strong urge to be with farm animals. After doing a month of research about factory farms, the dairy industry, the egg industry, and learning other horrible truths about petting zoos, pony rides, and circuses, I was overwhelmed by the feeling that I needed to connect with some [...]

Who’s totally tired of all of the warm, heavy comfort foods that come with the winter? Yeah, me neither. But with all of the recipe testing for the book, my body is getting a little bit tired of heavy food (not that all of the recipes for the book are “heavy.” There’s just a lot of [...]

It should come as no shock that I’m a fan of Robin Robertson‘s cookbooks. I’ve reviewed (and given away) two of them in the last year and a half- Fresh From The Vegan Slow-Cooker and Nut Butter Universe. When Harvard Common Press asked me to be a part of the book tour for One-Dish Vegan, [...]

I love raw food, but I never venture to make it myself because it’s just not that familiar to me.  For me, it feels very strict without much room for leeway (changing the recipe/messing up).  So I mostly stick to what’s familiar to me.  Amber Shea Crawley is a raw foods chef who actually shows [...]

When Dianne Wenz, Veggie Girl herself, contacted me to do a review of Nut Butter Universe, Robin Robertson‘s newest cookbook, I could not say no.  Nut butters are probably one of my most favorite ingredients in my kitchen so an entire cookbook revolving around them sounded like a fantastic opportunity. I’m sure that for most [...]

I never thought I’d be that girl who used a slow-cooker.  Now, after the last couple weeks, with the help of best-selling author, Robin Robertson, my slow-cooker and I have formed a pretty tight bond. When Harvard Common Press contacted me to review the newest cookbook from author of 19 other vegetarian and vegan cookbooks, [...]
