Does anybody else always seem to have a bag of dried cranberries in the pantry leftover from Thanksgiving? No matter what time of year it is, those darn craisins just continue to sit there. You don’t even remember what recipe you bought them for; you probably just threw a handful on a salad or something….

Vegan Taiyaki (Japanese Fish Shaped Waffle)
Are you team pancakes or team waffles? I like pancakes for an everyday breakfast, but waffles are definitely my go-to for special occasions. They seem more like dessert to me, probably because of waffle cones for ice cream, plus the rise of Hong Kong-style bubble waffles in NYC. Speaking of which, what is with those…
Chocolate Chip Granola Bars (Gluten-Free/Vegan)
Every generation has certain foods that remind them of their childhood. People who grew up in the 80’s remember eating Smurf Berry Crunch cereal for breakfast. 90’s babies ate Trix yogurt. As someone who was born in the 2000’s, I can confidently say that Quaker chewy chocolate chip granola bars were one of the…
Healthy Maple Almond Butter Granola
Granola is one of those foods that’s definitely worth making at home. It requires minimal effort and can be made in huge batches, enough to last for weeks at a time! Plus, you can customize the flavor and ingredients if you make it yourself. Store-bought granola is often filled with refined sugar, unhealthy oils, and…
Vegan Strawberry Muffins With Lemon Glaze
Last week, I completed my school’s leadership program for juniors. To celebrate, everyone in the program brought in food, and we all had a big breakfast together. I signed up to bring blueberry muffins, since I knew I had a bag of blueberries in my freezer. But when I went to make the muffins, I…
Vegan Trail Mix Biscotti
Biscotti are unlike any other type of cookie. They’re twice-baked, extra crunchy, and perfect for dipping in coffee! Traditionally, they’re made with almonds, but you can use the same technique to make any biscotti flavor you want. Some popular additions include nuts, dried fruit, and my personal favorite: chocolate. After I learned how to make…
4 Ingredient Healthy Vegan Oreos (No Refined Sugar/Oil)
When you think of “accidentally” vegan food, Oreos are probably the first thing that come to mind. Most people, not just vegans, know that Oreos contain no animal products. However, just because they’re vegan certainly doesn’t mean they’re healthy! That isn’t to say your shouldn’t ever eat them; a little treat each day is perfectly fine….
Vegan Chunky Monkey Muffins
Happy Veterans Day to my fellow Americans! This weekend is the time to honor the brave men and women who have served our country. Be sure to take some time out of your day to thank any veterans that you know! Being the food blogger that I am, my way of showing my appreciation for…
Soft and Chewy Skittles Sugar Cookies (Vegan)
Happy November everyone! Now that Halloween is over, it’s officially holiday season – at least in my book it is. Before you know it it’ll be Thanksgiving, and shortly after that we’ll be celebrating Christmas! But before we can move past Halloween, we have to do something with all the leftover candy. I don’t know…
Crispy Baked Sweet Potato Fries
We all know that French fries aren’t that good for us. They’re deep fried in unhealthy oils, have almost no protein, and provide little in the way of nutrition. Unfortunately for our health, they taste so good! Because of this, many people have tried to replace fries with a “healthy” alternative at one point or…
