Plant-based recipes for a deliciously healthy life
Hey babes, I don’t think I’ve said it yet, but welcome to February! We’re 8.33% of the way through the year! Did you complete Veganuary? Did you extend it another month or 11? Either way, happy to have you. So, we had our employee benefits meeting at work today, and they made a very large […]
Hey babes, So, if your kids are like mine, they sometimes prefer the delicious, scientifically-calibrated choices from chain restaurants over yours. If I can ever get my kids to say “wow, that tastes like (insert restaurant here),” I count that as a win. One of the places my children love the most (thanks, coparent) is […]
Hey babes, I bet you didn’t know I was a seitanist, huh? Blessed be the gluten and all that. My devotion is certainly not to the level of religious zeal, but I am a fan. With the possible exception of soy curls, seitan most closely resembles the texture of meat among the popular vegan protein […]
Hey babes, So, in case you find this surprising, let me fill you in on a secret about some portions of Texas, particularly mine: it gets cold as the lowest ring of Hell in the winter.

Your house is […]
