Perfect puddin’

I took my sweet time posting this recipe because I wanted it to be perfect.  I wasn’t looking for anything fancy.  My criteria were the following: quick low on sugar no fake sugar dessert worthy chocolate substantial In other words, I wanted something that I could whip up with ease, that would satisfy my sweet tooth, without excess sugar.  However, I wanted it to be made of real ingredients so it would both hold me over and offer something nutritionally. Perfect puddin’ (v, gf) Ingredients: 7 oz. soft tofu (1/2 block) 1 tbsp chia seeds… Read more >

***Edited to add**** I just realized this is my 1,000th post.  Crazy!  I might have to celebrate with a giveaway soon! Of course the second my neck and back start feeling normal again my stomach decides to go off the deep end.  Blah.  I probably consumed over 3000 calories yesterday, but absorbed under 100.  I was cursed with overly rapid transit time, if you catch my drift. In any event, I was pretty productive when I wasn’t in the bano.  I can’t wait to share! For breakfast I baked a mini banana bread, which was… Read more >

No Sara Lee

Last month my dairy-intolerant cousin and I were lamenting over how much we miss cheesecake.  I’m sure we are biased, but our family’s recipe is pretty much the best.  Ever.  I grew up eating it at nearly every holiday and many birthdays too.  Chocolate cake is fine, but I preferred a birthday cheesecake.  Nowadays, there are very few foods that I miss from my pre-lactose-free-life, but cheesecake is definitely one of them.  So I made it a personal mission to attempt a vegan version.  Admittedly, it’s nothing like a “real” cheesecake, but when it comes… Read more >

Just add Sabra

To know me is to know I love hummus.  I mean really.  Even my coworkers (who don’t know jack diddley about me) know that I’m a chickpea connoisseur.  So how excited was I to get this in the mail?!?   SO EXCITED!  Naturally, I already had Sabra in the fridge because it’s the best.  And you can buy it in bulk at Costco.  I try to be rational when I’m in the super store, but when I see rows and rows of family sized tubs something happens to me.  I can’t explain it.  We almost… Read more >
