  • Canning Corn Chowder Base

    Canning Corn Chowder Base

    Corn chowder is a great hearty vegan soup option, and since the USDA home canning guidelines allow for a DIY soup recipe (section 4-18), I’ve developed a corn chowder base that can be canned, and then turned into a creamy chowder with cashews once the jar is opened for a quick, easy meal.

  • Canning Vegan Baked Beans

    Canning Vegan Baked Beans

    These baked beans are a labor of love, since they take all day to cook and can (not to mention the soaking time!), but they turned out great! I used my typical 24 hour soak with some apple cider vinegar, and veganized the recipe for “Picnic-Friendly Baked Beans” on page 75 of Modern Pressure Canning…

  • GF Vegan Burger Buns

    GF Vegan Burger Buns

    I’ve been experimenting with a gluten-free and vegan burger bun that rises well and stays nice and soft, and finally have a good recipe that turns out well every time. These work well as burger or sandwich buns, but they also make a great toast that I like topping with some vegan butter and tofu…

  • Rice Paper Dumplings with Tofu and Veggies

    Rice Paper Dumplings with Tofu and Veggies

    Rice paper is the gluten-free star of these dumplings, providing an easy alternative to pre-made wonton or egg-roll wrappers. Using 2 rice papers per roll adds some thickness to the wrapper, and cooking them in the air fryer adds a little crunch that makes these into a very satisfying lunch. Tofu and pre-made coleslaw mix…

  • Vegan Potato Soup Mix

    Vegan Potato Soup Mix

    This soup mix is easy to throw together, and makes for a quick convenience meal or snack to keep on the pantry shelf. I’ve included a bunch of herbs and spices that I keep in my pantry to give it a nice flavor, but feel free to customize the list to your taste. Featured in…

  • GF Vegan Cornbread Muffin Mix

    GF Vegan Cornbread Muffin Mix

    Cornbread muffin mix in a jar is a great convenience item to keep on your pantry shelf, or give as a gift. This recipe is gluten-free, vegan, and makes it easy to whip up a batch of cornbread muffins in just a few minutes. I always make my cornbread in muffin form since I find…

  • The Best Vegan Tacos

    The Best Vegan Tacos

    Tacos make a great, easy dinner, and this is my favorite way to make a “meaty” vegan taco filling. The combination of TVP and lentils gives some great texture to the filling, and the quesadilla shells and cashew cream make these feel decadent! Featured in this post This post contains affiliate links, which means I…

  • Sweet and Sour Soy Curls

    Sweet and Sour Soy Curls

    This is a favorite dinner in my house, so I like to keep the ingredients on hand. I like the texture of soy curls in this dish better than versions I’ve tried with tofu or chickpeas, and the sauce is perfectly sweet and tangy. Best of all, it comes together in just about 30 minutes.…
