Smokey Greens and Black Eyed Peas with Biscuits by Rich H

Black-eyed peas (the food, not the band) combined with delicious kale are melded together into a flavorful dish that is sauteed with onion and garlic and then made to really pop with smoked paprika! Yum!

Barley and Tempeh Soup by Rich H

Tempeh, fermented soy beans or grain, makes an interesting alternative to veggie crumbles (or ground beef) in this soup recipe. It lends a distinct flavor to the soup while also providing protein and fiber, making for a very filling and satisfying meal. Note: The green beans you see in the photo were an afterthought - just a few…

Paella Wannabe by Rich H

I had all of the ingredients I needed although I had to change things up a little from the traditional paella. I used brown rice instead of bomba or calasparra white rice. And, of course, this paella is vegetarian.

Glazed Lemony Vegan Zucchini Bread by Rich H

Ok. I thought we were done with zucchini for the year but low and behold there was one more straggler still hiding among the yellowing leaves. Couldn't believe it! So I decided to make this one into a dessert of sorts. A vegan zucchini bread with decidedly lemon flavor and a sweet-tart lemony glaze. Soooo good!

Vegan Carrot Cake Cupcake for ONE by Shauna Duncan

Been a bit obsessed with single serving desserts lately. This one I think about DAILY. It is not overly sweet, and I feel almost less guilty because there are carrots in it. Score! It doesn't even need frosting.

The recipe that finally got my baking pants into gear was this Rhubarb & Strawberry Lemonade recipe I checked…

Tomatoes and cherries... two of my favourite fruits in a fruity twist of the classic gazpacho recipe.

Vegan Cream of Spinach Soup by The Blender Girl

The best thing about this soup? It takes less than half an hour from chopping board to table; and is dead easy. Unlike starchy soups that need about 30-40 minutes to cook through, this soup only needs about 20 minutes. Just chop up your ingredients, bring to the boil, simmer, blend and serve. I can’t seem to go past using whole…

Banana and chocolate pudding by Gourmandelle LifestyleBlog

Bananas, bananas and again bananas! Don’t blame me because I love these sweet creamy fruits! I always make up some kind of dessert when I have bananas in my kitchen and I almost never eat them just as they are. I had some dark chocolate in the fridge and I thought “Why not combine it with bananas? Nothing wrong can happen... right?!”…

Cranberries Jam by Gourmandelle LifestyleBlog

I don’t eat any jams made with sugar. Sugar is another thing on my forbidden list. It is toxic! I only use natural and unrefined sweeteners, honey for example. All the jams that I make are made from dehydrated – rehydrated fruits, combined with delicious honey and amazing spices. The inconvenient is that they won’t last too long in…
