This is a quick and easy recipe and I just want to share. If you can find this tea, then you can make Thai Iced Tea exactly like you would get in a restaurant, only vegan, and so much better (if you ask me). I have seen the Thai-tea product at the Asian and IndianContinue reading “Thai Iced Tea with Coconut Milk”

Apple-Cinnamon-Walnut Muffins
Happy Sunday! Here is another tasty addition to the-muffins-made-using-almond-pulp (and a buncha other stuff) collection…And they’re vegan to boot! I was a vegan for a long time and I have decided to post more recipes without eggs for my vegan readers. (Know, too, that you can usually omit the eggs in these recipes, as theContinue reading “Apple-Cinnamon-Walnut Muffins”
Celeriac-Potato Mashup
Ah, celeriac. It’s as if potato and a celery fell in love and had a baby. This funny looking root vegetable is crunchy and ugly and tastes kinda celery-like. We discovered its wonders when we were on the raw food road. My (and Ryan’s) hands down favorite way to prepare celeriac is as a rawContinue reading “Celeriac-Potato Mashup”
Nkatiekonto & Omotuo (Groundnut Soup & Riceballs)
groundnut soup & riceballs: veggie voyager style Here is a favorite recipe from Ghana. It is one of the more famous foods of the region, with good reason: it’s delicious! Nkatiekonto is most commonly found on Sundays at chop bars (small street-side restaurants), especially in the bigger towns and cities. It is also prepared frequentlyContinue reading “Nkatiekonto & Omotuo (Groundnut Soup & Riceballs)”

Penne Rosé
The unabbreviated title of this dish might be “Vegan, Gluten & Soy Free Penne Rosé with Mushrooms, Cauliflower & Chard”. For me, it is the pinnacle of comfort food. I am eating it as I write and it is deeeeelicious. About two years ago, I deduced that I am allergic to most soy products. PriorContinue reading “Penne Rosé”
Kelewele
When it comes to vegetarian food in Ghana and West Africa, I’m your girl. I have spent about 4 years (cumulatively) in Ghana in the past 10 years. I was a Peace Corps Volunteer there for 2 1/2 years, and while there I forged lasting relationships with many people. After I finished my service, IContinue reading “Kelewele”
Gluten Free Corn Bread
It seems like corn bread recipes are a dime a dozen in the blogosphere. Here’s mine, for all it’s worth. I have made quite a few of the corn bread recipes out there, never feeling quite satisfied with the results. So I tweaked and tailored until I got this winner. I really like the wayContinue reading “Gluten Free Corn Bread”
Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
I have had requests from a couple of bachelor/college-student friends for easy recipes that they can make. I think my grasp of “easy” in the kitchen is distorted due to the fact that I think that everything is easy…some things just take more time than others! I also realize that they were probably askingContinue reading “Chocolate Dipped Strawberries”
Baja Style Veggie Tacos
When we were in Baja with friends last year, we stopped for tacos in San Felipe one afternoon. Angie and Chris enjoyed the house specialty: fish fried in a delicate, crispy golden batter with the usual accoutrements: fresh radishes, salsa, slices of avocado, and crema on a corn tortilla. Ryan turned to me and said,Continue reading “Baja Style Veggie Tacos”
