It’s time to get green y’all – and I ain’t talkin’ bout bud. I’m talkin’ bout matcha and pistachios, because it’s St. Paddy’s Day, and heck, we can all use a little bit more green in our lives (and diets). Honestly, I thought making scones would be hard. I guess because I see them so…

Red velvet cupcakes are the epitome of a perfect dessert. They’re decadent, pretty to look at (that’s half the point of confections, right?), and they’re personally portioned, so it’s even better if they’re jumbo sized. Sadly though, cupcakes are often disposed to boxed cake-mixes or in-store purchases, both of which can be sickeningly sweet and…

Pie is scary food. Tedious crusts. Fillings that have to be set just perfectly. Lots of waiting to eat it after it comes out of the oven. The people who think that cake is the queen of bougie desserts have clearly forgotten about pie. Homemade pie crusts have become taboo, most fillings come from…

I’m SO happy that November is here – it’s probably the best month for an American food blogger, given the entire country’s hype around food. November also happens to be our first magazine feature (did I spill the beans too soon?). That’s right, No Eggs or Ham will have a couple of recipes inside the…

Do you like pizza? That’s a rhetorical question. I know you do. I’m not saying pizza is everyones’ favorite food, but it certainly holds a unique place in the hearts of billions, with the mere mentioning of the word ushering up feelings of warmth, friendship, and a few drunken mistakes. Such is life. Let’s talk ‘zah.…

CCOOOOKKIIEESSS. Who doesn’t love cookies, right? I mean, sure, to some extent or another, we all try to avoid them – but only because we love them so much that if we eat one we’ll be tempted to eat a hundred. And we all know eating 100 cookies isn’t good for us. I’ll say it…

If there’s one thing I’ve learned through the process of creating this recipe, it’s that perfection takes patience and persistence. We made six test batches of these muffins before we achieved a recipe we’re proud of. SIX BATCHES. Do you know how many lemons & poppy seeds dedicated their lives to the perfection of this…

Being the first type of “vegan bacon” I ever tried, tempeh bacon holds a place in my heart- a place that’s more satisfied by tempeh bacon than actual bacon. Growing up I always thought bacon was great on hamburgers, but if I were to order a plate of breakfast, sausage was my protein of…

I’ve been making variations of this recipe for a year now and I am so excited to finally share it with you! I promise you, you’ve never had french toast like this before. This french toast starts with a base of quality gluten free/vegan bread, which takes a dunk into sweet vanilla spice avocado…

Cereal has accompanied me throughout most of my life – as a kid, I sat with it in laughter as I watched morning cartoons, in middle school, I hurriedly poured countless bowls for myself before zooming out the door to catch my bus to school, and as an old teenager, I reached for boxes of…

These tacos are a fresh & vibrant invitation into a warm Summer. I understand that some of y’all may have been experiencing warm weather for a couple months now (#jealous), but I live in the Pacific Northwest, where the sun just made his first guest appearance a few days ago. Needless to say, we are…

I’ve been craving Thai food for about a month now, and when I crave Thai food, I get Thai food. While I do love a trip to a take-out restaurant, I can’t always rely on them to deliver me a piping hot plate of noodles; I have to take matters into my own hands. With…

Writing a brownie recipe while contemplating a sugar-free diet is ironic, aye? None the less, brownies are essential to existence. Can you imagine living the rest of your life without having another brownie??? I mean, after all, chocolate was deemed “food of the Gods” by the Aztects. Surely, brownies are never to be eliminated entirely;…

BBQ Sloppy Joe’s was the first dish I ever publicly shared a recipe for. This is a rendition of that recipe updated to fit the times: simpler, quicker, cheaper, tastier, not to mention perfect for family dinner or meal prep (lots of leftovers). I first fell in love with vegan sloppy joe’s after sinking my teeth…

Oats. They’re the centerpiece of many a vegan food blog. To be honest, I haven’t caught the wave of hype yet. Two hours after engulfing a bowl of oats leaves me feeling like a blob of setting cement, AND they don’t deliver much in the department of texture or flavor (yeah, maple/brown sugar is cool, but…

Kim is fond of saying “I don’t like chocolate.” Well then, it’s certainly a curiosity why she couldn’t stop eating these cookies. Baking (and eating) these cookies on a rainy day, locked inside your house is a sure way to elevate the feng shui of your day – which is exactly the circumstances I created…

Look. No. Further. These pancakes are comforting, hearty, and warming. Taking only 30 minutes to make, start to finish, they are perfect for a lazy morning breakfast – or a 1 pm brunch if we’re being real! Full of nutty almond goodness, topped with vegan butter and real maple syrup (leave Aunt Jemima on the…

Here’s a quote: “if you want to replace ground meat in a recipe, just use lentils” – my aunt. Expected something profound? I’m sorry, you came to the wrong place. I write poetry elsewhere. Mixed with the natural umami flavor of mushrooms, this recipe comes together to form an excellent replacement for real meatballs. Kim and I…

Y’all. These cupcakes. Vegan, gluten-free, red velvet cupcakes colored naturally by beets. It sounds like magic, and to be real, it probably is, but I’m going to equip you with all of the tools to pull off this magicnificent trick (… get it?). But first, story time. Kim and I just applied for an event…
