(vegan, gluten-free) JUMP TO RECIPE I am a fan of Javant Benton's YouTube site "Healthy Vegan Cooking," partly because I aspire to maybe one day developing his physique before I leave this mortal coil, but mostly because I admire his wizardry with vegan cooking. His recipe for vegan ground meat, made with cauliflower, mushrooms, nuts,... Continue Reading →
(vegan, gluten-free) JUMP TO RECIPE Back in my young adult life, I purchased a small scone cookbook, and I proceeded to make scones on a weekly basis: cream scones, dried fruit scones, savory scones, ginger scones, etc. The question I asked over and over again was “Will it scone?” and the answer was almost always...

(vegan, gluten-free) JUMP TO RECIPE The gauntlet had been thrown down. My friend had all but challenged me to create my own personal vegan gluten-free salted caramel apple Dutch baby pancake recipe. I picked up the gauntlet and slapped him back. "Honor shall be mine," I stated plainly. OK, in reality, my friend had tried... Continue Reading →

Just because you are gluten free... Continue Reading →
(vegan, gluten-free) These burgers are much lower in protein than Beyond Burgers, but they have about ¾ the calories, ⅔ the fat, and 1½ the fiber.

(vegan, gluten-free) These Puissance Waffles, which I can't stress enough taste like proper delicious waffles, are vegan, gluten-free, and high in fiber (2g/waffle) and protein (4.2g/waffle).
(vegan, gluten-free) This vegan gluten-free quick bread recipe is meant to capture the essence of sweet potato pie or mashed sweet potatoes with a sprinkle of brown sugar.
(vegan, gluten-free) JUMP TO RECIPE This gluten-free vegan quick bread recipe is reminiscent of a campfire; essences of bourbon and smoke are balanced by cinnamon and ginger. The loaf can be sliced and served with coffee for a morning breakfast, or it can be served with a shot of whiskey or brandy as a late-night... Continue Reading →
