One of my favorite vegan-ized desserts is this Glazed Lemon Loaf recipe, which is basically a glazed pound cake. It’s just as good as a classic lemon pound cake, and it’s also super easy to make. The cake itself is moist and spongy, and the simple glaze is tangy and sweet. Prepping both components won’t take you more than 15 minutes at most. It’s elegant, yet just casual enough that it works for most occasions!...

Pizza Party Friday Night! There’s a Youtube show I used to (okay I still watch sometimes) with a family who said that phrase all the time. Ever since, I say it every time pizza is had on a Friday night. I know, very original of me.

Homemade Egg-Free Mayonnaise Recipe Highlights Some weeks ago, I learned about a GREAT egg replacer. People call this magic liquid by different names: aquafaba, chickpea liquid, chickpea brine, bean cooking liquid, bean juice, etc. Aquafaba is just the liquid that we usually discard from a can of beans. This liquid emulates the unmistakably fluffy texture of whipped egg whites. So, please… STOP pouring it down the drain!!! Aguafaba is a magical ingredient for people with egg allergy, like my daughter, egg intolerance, or for those who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet....

Well, they’re pretty much magical. What’s the Secret to Caramelized Onions? Caramelized onions take patience and time, but luckily, you’ll be rewarded in the end with sweet, jammy onions to add to ALL THE THINGS....

Vegan chicken. Isn’t that an oxymoron? Not really! This vegan chicken has the texture and flavour down pat, but it’s made with tofu, vital wheat gluten, and seasonings instead of, well, chicken. What’s the Best Fake Chicken? There are many types of vegan chicken in the grocery store these days, but let me tell you—none of them compare to homemade. The texture and flavour are far better, and it’s more budget-friendly too....

So many recipes call for vegetable broth, but if you usually rely on store-bought cartons or bouillon cubes, you’re missing out! The first time I tried homemade vegetable broth I was blown away by the depth of flavour—and by how much money I was saving by making it myself. Best part? You can use kitchen scraps to make it!
