Uhhh yeah, long name, I know. But I actually held back because they could have been called a million other things…like lovely gooey bites…or gluten free breakfast squares…or deliciously sweet snack bars…you get the idea, right? I have a lot of photos of P man-handling these candies because they’ve been on the counter (hashtag dangerous) for a while now. He loves playing with the bag because it makes noise and his pudgy little fingers can perfectly grasp and shake it. And yet, we all know how bad terrible of an idea it… Read more >

Recipe first, giveaway second. Cool? Or you can skip ahead to the end if you want. I won’t be offended. I was trying to make meatless meatballs, but they weren’t really cooperating, so instead we got sliders. The recipe still needs some work though (in my opinion). They taste good, so that’s not the issue. And for anyone wanting to make sliders (or bigger veggie burgers?), these would probably be good enough. I’m sure everyone is thoroughly sick of Super Bowl recipe ideas at this point (I know I am). So make these whenever. Or… Read more >

Did you know that meatout is the world’s largest grassroots diet education campaign? And every year, on March 20th thousands of people encourage their friends, families, and communities to "kick the meat habit” and explore a wholesome, compassionate diet of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. The campaign started back in 1985 and has grown tremendously since then. Check out the success they had in 2011! The 2012 goal of meatout is to distribute free vegan food samples to 30,000 people.

Forget this Black Friday business, I’m too stuffed to function. I am actually having a hard time looking at the food photos I have from Thanksgiving…but the pictures of the kiddos…I could look at those all day. It may be a while before I can comfortably post Thursday’s meal(s), but I have pre-feast work food to share. First up, a peanut flour/oat breakfast. In addition to oats and peanut flour, I stirred in some home-made granola and chia seeds as well. Sometimes my breakfast bowls look semi-watery and I occasionally get questions… Read more >
