Creamy Mushroom Mac and Cheese

Creamy Mushroom Mac and Cheese

I completely OD’d on pasta when I was kid. And by “kid,” I’m referring from the time I was born until halfway though college, when I realized that although they were cheap and tasty, these gigantic bowls of pasta I was eating a few nights a week weren’t exactly doing wonders for my figure. I mean, [...]

I know that right now, it’s expected of me, as a food blogger, to share recipes that are super green and springy and use terms like “Rejuvenating,” “Purifying,” and “Goddess.” Bonus points if it involves asparagus. But I can’t quit this sweet potato & chickpea bowl. I can’t and I won’t. I’ve talked before about [...]

A little over a week ago, I passed out at the doctor’s office. I’d gone in because I’d been dealing with extreme fatigue for about a month. Every day was a battle not to take a nap. I’d also been feeling pretty weak and I’d put on some weight that I couldn’t seem to get [...]

I was a total theater rat in highschool, though I liked to think of myself as being a fine dramatic actress. I even dressed the part- I only wore black, except for my blackish magenta Doc Martens.  Oh, and my lipstick matched those boots.  I had quotes from Shakespeare written with a sharpie on my [...]

If you follow me on Facebook or Twitter, last week you may have already heard me allude to the fact that chickpea flour is magic.  Well, it’s true.  Chickpea flour is magic. I mean, if soccas, flatbreads, omelets, waffles, and pancakes haven’t already made this clear to you, perhaps this recipe will. Do you see [...]

This time of year, we get a lot of different types of greens in our weekly CSA delivery. I’m not complaining- I love my greens!  Kale, chard, collards, spinach, mustard greens, arugula, cabbage, and more- I love them all! The problem arises when I get more greens than I have time to eat.  I put [...]

This month marks nine years of living with Samantha, my canine companion.  Nine years and she still never ceases to amaze me. When I found her in a shelter in northern California, I fell in love with her as soon as she tried to crawl inside my coat.  I knew right then that she was [...]

I am not a dieter.  I’m just not good at depriving myself of food or following strict rules about food.  I find myself getting obsessive about every little calorie and gram of fat and protein and carb and it makes me crazy and angry, so I just don’t do it. I don’t weigh myself, either. [...]

Sweet Potato Butternut Stew with White Beans & Chard

I don’t ask for much in order to have a perfect winter evening.  A fire going in the fireplace.  Sweats, warm socks, and slippers on my feet. A nice hearty stew or thick, velvety soup.  Some sort of warm, crusty bread to go with said stew or soup. A good movie, perhaps, or just some [...]

The first time Chris and I ever spoke on the phone, we were both surprised to learn that we were both vegetarian.  Neither of us had ever dated a vegetarian before so we were excited to go to a vegan restaurant for our first date (Cru) where we would both enjoy the food.  After the [...]

I grew up in a family that was pretty fond of casseroles.  If it could be baked in a 9 x 13 dish and serve a small crowd, we were fans.  If it contained some sort of Campbell’s condensed soup and was topped with something fried and/or crunchy, even better.  A good casserole was always [...]

It’s that time again, folks!  What time, you ask?  Well, it’s Virtual Vegan Potluck time, silly! Created by the incredible Annie at An Unrefined Vegan, the Virtual Vegan Potluck is exactly what it sounds like.  It’s a vegan potluck, consisting over over 100 bloggers, each sharing one dish virtually (online).  Last May’s VVP was such [...]

The last couple days, The Chickpea has been trying to prove his manliness to me. I think it all started a couple weeks ago, when I caught him watching Ally McBeal reruns.  When he saw me in the doorway, he quickly changed the channel to baseball.  This raised my suspicions because I know he doesn’t [...]

A question I get from my family often is “Don’t you miss (insert type of animal-based food here)?”  I always tell them that I do not miss (type of animal food) and I crave new things now.  These days, instead of my old stand-by snack of apple slices and cottage cheese, I really love a [...]

In the past, when I’ve brought food to share with my family, I’ve always been met with many questions about the ingredients (followed by raised eyebrows), jokes about the food being weird or likely tasting like cardboard (without tasting it), announcements of undying love for meat, a list of how few times one ate meat [...]

I dare anyone to argue with me when I say that portobello mushrooms are the most decadent of all the mushrooms.  Actually, let me rephrase that: Please don’t argue with me when I say that portobello mushrooms are the most decadent of all the mushrooms.  I’m just not a fan of confrontation. Sure, the shiitakes have [...]

There are times when my creativity is flowing, and then there are times when the river slows to just a trickle.  Lately, the river has completely dried up. My mind has been all over the place, everywhere except in my cooking or writing.  I may pause, in the middle of preparing a dish, to ponder [...]

When I was a personal trainer, I had a client who was very dear to me.  Kim was one of those people who I immediately hit it off with and every session (three times per week) was spent catching up on each other’s lives (what we’d done recently, new things we’d cooked, vacation plans, family [...]

Recently, I was reunited with an old friend.  After becoming vegan, this particular friend was not too happy with my decision.  She felt like I had abandoned her and after a few failed attempts at trying to make things work, we parted ways.  We just didn’t see things the same way anymore, and though I [...]
