Jamie Oliver – The Mothership Tomato Salad

This name couldn’t be more fitting for this salad. It truly is the Mothership of all tomato salads. It is simplistic, yet so rich with flavor. Because of it’s simplicity, you can also use it as a base to make so many other recipes – pastas, guacamole, quinoa, whatever you think of really. I don’t [...]

Organic Heirloom Tomato Soup

I don’t think it’s physically possible not to like this soup if you like tomatoes. Even all of the kids we have given it to completely approve of it and there is nothing “bad” in it. This soup was made for me by my Mom’s close friend, Jane, as a welcome home dinner after my [...]

One thing that always seemed to be missing for me with sandwiches as a vegan is mayonnaise. It brings a moistness to a sandwich that is hard to obtain without mayonnaise.

Garlic Naan Bread

This recipe is the perfect accomodation to the Thai Yellow Curry Recipe. I like this recipe because you can really make it using whatever type bread you have around. I have made it using a Boboli pizza crust, french bread, tortillas… whatever! Ingredients: Bread of your choice, but a Boboli pizza crust is my favorite [...]

Thai Yellow Curry

This recipe was something I came up with using a bottle of Trader Joe’s Thai Yellow Curry Sauce. This sauce does have milk as one of the ingredients so it is not vegan. However, I like to use the 2% rule with being vegan. It is so hard sometimes to eat completely vegan so if [...]
