Quinoa Falafel with Avocado Tahini Dressing
April 7, 2013
I've loved falafel ever since my aunt Annie introduced me to it as a kid. She took me to a Middle Eastern restaurant outside Montreal and ordered me a plate of vegetarian goodness, including tabouli, hummus, and falafel. At the time, I wasn't even sure exactly what I was eating,...

I totally missed-out on my Thursday and Friday Vegan MoFo posts, so rather than get back into recounting my 3-month NZ and Southeast-Asia travel adventures, I thought I'd share a new recipe with you.
As mentioned previously, I now live really close to one of Toronto's great Fresh Restaurants and find...

Note from Vegangela
One Green Planet asked me submit a Thanksgiving recipe again this year. Last year, I came up with some Quinoa-Stuffed Thanksgiving Squash, which is not only beautiful but also filling and nutritious. This year, I decided to prepare something a bit lighter. The full recipe is available on the One Green...

While the summer doesn't officially start here until December 1st, the weather has been absolutely amazing lately. Some of our friends have organized a BBQ in the park, and while they're providing the salads, I thought that I'd bring a couple things as well. I'll probably make some Quinoa Salad...

August 14, 2011
My awesome little mama has been cooking up a storm for me during my stay in Ottawa and I thought it only fair that I return the favor by making her lunch earlier this week. My mom can make pretty much anything, but she had never made taco salads before....

August 10, 2011
If you've been following my last few posts, you'll know that I'm currently on vacation in Ottawa Canada. Right now, I'm staying with my parents and it's actually more of a "semi-vacation" at the moment since I'm working half-days and running around doing a bunch of different errands the rest...

June 14, 2011
I started making this sandwich back in high school, and although I don't consider it a real "recipe", it's something that I make from time to time when I'm craving a sandwich or I'm in need of a quick meal. It can be easily customized to your personal sandwich preferences...

June 3, 2011
Check out this awesome kidney bean soup. Until I made this the other day, I had never had a kidney-bean based soup before - just the usual black or white bean variety. Well, ladies and gentlemen, I think we have a new favorite.
I've nicknamed it "chili soup" because it has...

Since moving to Sydney, I've eaten at quite a few of the sushi restaurants here. Those that have great fish for my non-vegan friends often have a really poor vegan menu. Most of these places don't even have avocado maki (rolls) on the menu, and I sometimes have to beg...

March 31, 2011
I came across this recipe in the Jan/Feb 2011 issue of Sheila magazine. It looked so decadent, I just had to try it. The trick is to have "ripe but firm" avocados on hand when the pears are just ripe. But once you've got that under control, the actual salad...

March 2, 2011
I think it's pretty clear from my last couple posts (and overall recipes) that I love avocados. They're so rich and creamy and such a beautiful shade of green (my favorite color). If I had to eat one fruit or veggie the rest of my life, avocados would probably be...

February 24, 2011
2011 has been pretty crazy for me. From hosting a good friend from back home over the holidays, to moving into a new pad downtown, to travelling back to Canada for a work conference and my mother's surprise 60th birthday, and finally meeting-up with my fiancé for 5 days of sight-seeing and...

January 17, 2011
My mom used to make this recipe and it's one of my all-time favorites. If you manage to find yourself in that perfect space-time-continuum where you have access to ripe mangoes and avocados at the same time, then this is the perfect recipe. I can't tell you how great this...

January 12, 2011
I've been making this recipe for years because it's so delicious - and by keeping frozen corn tortillas and store-bought enchilada sauce on hand, I can whip-up homemade vegan enchiladas in no time.
Notes
This recipe normally calls for 19oz of enchilada sauce, but I only had about half of that amount...

December 8, 2010
Something happened when I turned 30. My taste buds seemed to transform overnight. I don't seem to crave as much of the "bad" stuff anymore. For example, when I used to go to a Vietnamese restaurant, I would pick deep-fried spring rolls over the fresh variety 8 times out of...

October 11, 2010
So after a rather dismal weekend of eating in Sydney restaurants with poor vegan options (The Winery & Bondi Pizza), I figured that one of the best neighborhoods to head for lunch on Sunday would be Surry Hills, with its eclectic patrons and quaint little cafes. Walking on Crown street, I came...

October 8, 2010
One of my favorite types of food is Mexican food. Maybe it's the fact that beans+rice make such a great nutritional combination, or that putting guacamole on everything is perfectly acceptable. That's probably the real reason!
Fajitas are so easy because you don't really need a recipe to make them. I...

October 2, 2010
I love making tofu scramble on the weekends. The ingredients are always a bit of a surprise, as I'll just use whatever veggies are left-over from the week. Red pepper (capsicum), mushrooms, spinach, rocket... all have been in there at some point. I also add turmeric, which really brightens the...

Back in 2008, Oprah went vegan as part of a 21-day cleanse. I remembered being very excited by the prospect, simply because of the vast amount of people that she reaches on a daily basis.
She had famous vegan chef Tal Ronnen cooking fabulous meals all month, many of which were...
