I made my own coconut butter last night! Long gone at my days of wishing I could just pay for a $9 jar of white glory! Here’s the thing though. 2 cups of flaked coconut turns into about 3/4 cup coconut butter so honestly $9 isn’t all that bad of a price. I didn’t take [...]

I mentioned in a previous post that I am supposed to eat seaweed everyday. I love seaweed salad, but they usually have sugar in them. So do many of the roasted nori snacks, and I don’t find just plain seaweed to be all that palatable. I was at Whole Foods last Saturday and came across [...]

I have mentioned before that I often don’t post because I eat a lot of the same stuff over and over again and that gets repetitive for everyone. But I thought I’d just post what I made for dinner the other night. I was eating alone and so I tend to make a lot of [...]

I have been experimenting again. I loved my last batch of nut butter so much I had to add even more goodness. For those of you who aren’t into twitter (or who don’t follow me) I made a batch of Brazil nut- cashed butter last week and it was divine. I used 8oz of each [...]

The fact that the photo was taken with my phone only [...]

This is not a blog to boast about what a wonderful Valentine’s Day I had (though it was the best I have ever had), it is more a reminder to me of why I eat the way I do, and hey if you want to feel better yourself you might just test it out for [...]

I swear to you that I have not fallen off the face of the Earth. I have just had a bit of a jumble of things. Not much new cooking has gone on, so no need to bore you with the daily routine that is my food. There are only so many jars of buckwheat [...]

Just wanted to let you all know that there are many vegan bake sales going on around the country to benefit Haiti. I will be baking vegan morning glory muffins for the Seattle bake sale this Sunday at Neptune Coffee on Greenwood. My muffins won’t be gluten free or grain free (as I have found [...]

I have seen this term thrown around a lot lately and it nags at me. I know there is a magazine called Clean Eating but I am not sure if that is where the term originated or if they just picked it up. The thing that nags at me is that there doesn’t seem to [...]
