The squash are so beautiful and abundant right now. Fall harvest is so grounding. As the weather changes, we start to nestle in, grounding ourselves and our homes after the busy extroversion of summer. Grounding foods are very supportive so enjoy them in your meals. These speak for themselves and are a meal unto themselves.…
I wish I could have made a batch of these in time for the blog. Then you could see photos of these moist, delicious and light cakes. I bake them off as mini bundts. I poke holes in the cakes when they come out of the oven. Then I brush glaze on them. The glaze…
I got the idea of this from Hail Merry. I LOVED the product so much, I googled the ingredients. The closest I could find was from a a blog called Deliciously Organic. The product was good but it was really heavy on the filling with too much syrup. This created thick, almost stringy consistency that…
I have had a ton of mole in my day and this recipe is by far the best I have ever made or gone out for. I changed it the tiniest bit but I cannot take credit. I got it from “Cook, Eat, Cha Cha Cha“. This is a cookbook of recipes from the excellent…
I got the base idea for this beauty from the cookbook “The Gluten-Free Vegan”. Of course I changed it a bit. (That should go without saying at this point.) Susan O’Brien has some great ideas. I really love her cookbook. Not only is this a tasty, moist and easy recipe, it’s made with healthful ingredients.…

That chill in the air and smell of fall has arrived, despite the warmer days we are enjoying in the great NW. Time to start baking again. I thought we would start with muffins. GF and vegan is challenging in the muffin area. They often come out dense and heavy. This is a pretty solid base…
One of our favorite spots to have an indulgent Sunday afternoon is Astoria, Oregon located at the very tip of the Oregon Coast. The spot where Lewis and Clark finished their great expedition of the west. Also where the mighty Columbia River empties into the Pacific Ocean. The energy of the town is so charming,…
I love this blend. I enjoyed it throughout the day as I studied for boards. Great for the student but also for anyone who wants to support memory and concentration. I added a few extra herbs that will support digestion and allergies/liver cleansing. I think this is appropriate as we exit summer, moving into fall.…
I got the base of this recipe from the lovely Chayo Wilson. I had to veganize it and added a little baking tip I learned in my pastry chef days. THESE ARE A HIT AND A CINCH TO MAKE! Nutmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies 3 cups almond or hazelnut meal ( I get mine at Trader…
