Simply delicious oil-free vegan recipes
Last Monday morning, I was checking my blog comments, as I always do, when I found a new comment on my Easy Vegan Macaroni and Cheese:
I was so surprised I nearly choked on my coffee. Not only had my darling daughter made my recipe, but she’d taken the time to leave a comment. And she’d correctly used a comma! This seemingly small thing meant a lot to me as a mother, a food blogger, and a former English teacher….
The first time I described picking blueberries, I wrote, “There’s something peaceful about picking blueberries, even when you have to stand on a ladder to do it.” I went on to post the recipe for a Chocolate-Blueberry Cake that was pretty amazing, but some of the people who commented were more curious about the ladder than the cake. I even received an email informing me that blueberries grow on bushes, not trees, so obviously my story of using a ladder must have been made up.

Tofu is coated in sugar-free barbecue sauce and then quick-cooked on a waffle iron for the chewiest, most flavorful tofu in under 10 minutes.

I’ve posted several air fryer recipes, but I’ve never taken the opportunity to write about the air fryer in depth, to review the different air fryers, describe how they work, give…
Sometimes you just need comfort food, like this creamy Instant Pot red beans and rice soup. Sometimes those times can stretch into weeks… and months. Our 2018 started with a bang, literally. On January 3, our daughter E was driving D’s car when a man in a truck pulled out and hit her, knocking her…
When my family and I left town last week to spend Christmas with our two families, the last thing I expected was to come home with a new recipe to share. I’d signed off on Facebook for the holidays and didn’t even bring a camera with me. My plan was to make only tried and…
It’s been one of those months. December flew by, and the chaos of getting ready for Christmas sped it along. And then there were the “fun” end of year challenges–medical checkups and minor procedures, a wrecked car (E’s but she wasn’t hurt), and last minute plane tickets to get her home for the holidays.
