Breakfast at our abode usually consists of an elaborate porridge of oats with various homemade plant milk, cinnamon leaf, vanilla and nutmeg. Delicious and packed with nutrition to start our day right. But sometimes we like to mix it up with something extra on the side. Who doesn't love fried plantain? We sure do, especially the little person in the...

Rustic No Knead Whole Wheat Walnut Date Bread
I've been experimenting with Jim Lahey's no-knead bread in a pot method as you may have seen in previous posts. I love the cast iron pot method, which produces perfect crusty artisan loaves every time. And no kneading makes this recipe super easy. All you need is a little patience (18-24 hours) to let the dough rise.
Springtime Carrot Cupcakes with Orange Maple Glaze
I've always been a fan of good carrot cake. Sweet, spicy and filled with orange flecks of carrot. This recipe is not as oily as some carrot cakes tend to be. It might be leaning towards being a muffin but anything with a maple orange glaze is dessert in my book. The glaze is amazing and I've caught myself pouring...

Grow Your Own
There is nothing so satisfying as walking out your back door and picking your own homegrown food to prepare the day's meals. All that hard work, trial and error, sweat, tears, and perhaps some blood can be quite rewarding in the end. Once a sun-ripened sun gold cherry tomato bursts in your mouth filling it with sugary sweet juice and...

Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble
Although June can bring some unexpected weather here on the island (i.e. 30+ mph winds, rain, and temps in the 40's-what!?), it also happens to be the month of strawberry season in the northeast. Which totally redeems digging out your fleece and boots. I encourage you to get out and pick some fresh strawberries from your local farmer. Nothing beats...

The Best Granola
I know, I know: granola is the ultimate clichรฉ plant-based food. Mainstream America thinks that's all we eat...not true. But, I do love me some of this granola. It's nothing like the store-bought variety. This super crunchy granola is sweetened with maple syrup and filled with whole grains, nuts, and seeds. This post contains affiliate links to ingredients and products...
