Just a girl with a passion for great Plant-Based food, travel and random fun
I have been on a bit of recipe break because of lack of access to a kitchen to spread out and cook in ☹️ but now I’m home for a bit and it was snowing yesterday which made me want cozy soup. While watching one of my many favorite cooking shows one of the chefs […]
This is a multipart dish but all the parts can be made ahead and in some cases is better when it is. Any and all are great on their own but is seemed like more of a soup and “Sammie” kind of day when I made this. The only thing I would make the same […]
I can’t claim this one as my own just that I eat a big bowl of it every time my friend makes it so with her permission (Amanda Randall) I get to share it with you. I added the nut crust just for another layer and to show it as a pie. Amanda just recently […]
So I’m not really much of a baker but I had to master a pancake I loved because I LOVE PANCAKES!!. I probably shouldn’t admit to that. I think with this recipe I have nailed it. I usually make a bigger batch than I need for just me and portion the remaining into 3 pancake […]
When the weather starts to turn cold I start craving comfort food. I know this has been done a million times but it is still one of my favs and always a hit when I take it somewhere. Because it freezes so well and I’m a single girl I will generally make the whole recipe […]
I’m a pretty simple breakfast person. Generally it’s a cup of coffee and a green smoothie on the run but on off days my favorite thing to do is sit on the porch with my coffee and a bowl of granola, yogurt (finally found a nut based one I like-Amande) and some fresh fruit. Only […]
Back in my meat eating days I loved crabmeat. My mother grew up on the gulf so we always stocked up when we visited the grandparents. Among my favorites was crab cakes and it was one of the foods I missed when switching to plant based. Well I had a Jackfruit “crab” cake at a […]
Another great week in SouthEast Alaska. One thing that really makes Glacier Bay National park amazing for me is the wild life. Like I wrote before, this is my 5th summer in Alaska and I still run outside and take pictures like its my first. Glacier Bay is a special place. The majestic views are […]
This is a favorite of mine. Since I’m am not a fan of peanut butter, i Know…not normal, I sub almond butter. This dish can be served over regular pasta if you prefer but since I am Gluten Free Iuse Spaghetti Squash so pick which ever suits you better. There are gluten free noodles available […]
Starting in 2008 I made a drastic life change and went back to school, terrifying at 37yrs old. I went to massage school. The next thing i knew a friend was texting asking if I wanted to do massage and teach yoga on a yacht in Alaska. Well that was a no brainer and 3wks […]

Being from the south I grew up with cornbread. We weren’t a big bread eating family like some but we did love cornbread. Gluten free and vegan recipes can be a bit gummy but I like the version I came up with. I basically have adapted the Bob’s Redmill recipe on the back of the […]
Way back when I was given this recipe to put on shrimp but guess what, its great on everything. You can use it dry to make like a blackening spice or toss it and veggies or tofu with a little oil and grill or saute. I just keep a bottle around and sprinkle on all […]
Growing up we would head to my grandparents at the lake for the weekend and one of the staple dishes in the fall was my Grandfathers cabbage rolls, we for some reason called them “Cabbage Tamales”. Dad took over cooking them after Grandma passed away and the original version has ground meat in them. That […]
The title is a bit of a misnomer as even in its most standard form it isn’t basic at all. When I first started cooking my favorite type of food was Italian but where I grew up pasta and pizza was about as Italian as it got. As an adult I learned to make risotto […]
This one happened by accident after an impromptu trip to Trader Joe’s. Needless to say I just bought random stuff and then had to figure out what to do with it. It has ended up being one of my favorite dishes. I often have it with risotto because I LOVE risotto but its great with […]
When I was 18 my parents and I took a week long road trip to get me to college from Texas to New York. We stayed at BNB’s and played tourist, even visited Graceland (what a hoot). One of the places we stayed served us Clafoutis for breakfast which I had never had and it […]
