I’ve been having a hankering for lentils lately. I like to get my protien from as many different plant-based sources as possible and it’s been awhile since I’ve had lentils. I thought the lentils would be a nice pairing with a sauteed mushrooms and onion red-wine reduction, contrasted with a creamy cashew-based sauce. The results were [...]
This recipe was inspired by a great dish on VegFamily called Amazing Chocolate Mousse Pie. To be perfectly honest, I didn’t bother changing anything in the filling because it was perfect just the way it was. The crust, however, was problematic for me.

Raw macadamias can be hard [...]
The most common response I hear for people not eating vegan is that they could never give up cheese. I said it myself a dozen times. Bu it turns out that once you discover nuts, you won’t miss cheese nearly as much. This recipe for cashew ricotta is great both as a filling or sauce for [...]
