Mashed Cauliflower with Roasted Garlic & Chives
December 21, 2012
A couple years ago, I blogged about a Cauliflower Purée with Mushroom Compote, Seared King Mushroom and Shitake Bacon dish. That meal was awesome but time-consuming. Today, the big head of cauliflower sitting in my fridge inspired me to make a simple mashed-potato-like side dish.
I decided to load this up with...

The holidays are so crazy, aren't they? From wrapping-up work projects for the end of the calendar year, to finalizing gift shopping and decorating the house, there is often little time to do anything else. Even though I had plenty of notice for a holiday get together with friends a...

The last few months at work have been crazy for me, and that's left me little time to blog and try new recipes. The good news is that I have a fair bit of time off over the holidays, and I plan on cooking and blogging up a storm. Stay...

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone! I'm posting this recipe for those of you looking for a quick Thanksgiving recipe idea. The bonus is that it's healthy enough that you could get away with eating it for breakfast. Can you say win-win?
I got the idea for this recipe from a magazine years...

With all the excitement of participating in the Vegan Month of Food, I sort of forgot to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Vegangela.com. Working on this blog has been such an enriching experience for me - and even if I were to stop blogging tomorrow, I know that my life has been...

Check out this recipe for Pretty Darn Raw Vegan Cheesecake from Allyson @ Manifest Vegan. Like Allyson, I'm trying to incorporate more raw foods into my diet. Thankfully that doesn't just mean eating more salad! This recipe is proof that you can make delicious raw desserts that compare in flavor...

You're probably sick of holiday sweets by now, but I made these elegant truffles over the holidays and wanted to share them with you. I actually found this recipe for Easy Decadent Truffles a few years ago and have veganized it with great success a few times now. You've got to...

December 27, 2010
I try to eat pretty well during the year but all my rules concerning minimal sugar and margarine go out the door during the holidays. Being 1/2 French Canadian, food was a big part of Christmas when I was growing up. Because I'm vegan these days, I think it’s really...

I love really easy recipes, and especially those that don't require a lot of ingredients. I also like recipes that yield a small batch - so that I'm not making a huge commitment to something that I've never tried before. I can always double or triple the recipe later on,...

My friend Karla loves Ruinart champagne. It's the oldest champagne house in France and it's absolutely delicious. Ruinart comes in a big fat bottle, and I thought that it would be fun to make bath salts and fill the bottle with them as part of Karla's Christmas gift this year. (She's...

Vegan MoFo #24 - When One Green Planet approached me last week and and asked if I could submit an original vegan Thanksgiving recipe, I jumped at the chance. Although I cook almost everyday, I don't often keep track of ingredients and whatnot. This was an opportunity to create and...

It's 3AM here in Sydney. I just got off a conference call with Toronto and I can't sleep! What better time to write about... mushroom risotto?! This is one of my favorite recipes - I love the creamy thick rice and earthy mushrooms. This is such a comfort food for...

October 19, 2010
This is the most luxurious vegan dessert that I make. It's definitely not an everyday dessert, but something that I reserve for special occasions a few times a year. It easily holds-up to any non-vegan dessert served at fancy restaurants. It's extremely rich, so you only need to serve a small...

Canadian Thanksgiving is on Monday, and even though I'm living in Sydney Australia right now, I still like to celebrate it with a nice meal. I haven't yet figured out what I'm going to make this year, but I looked through last year's photos for some inspiration. I made this Tofu...
