A big complaint from people who are gluten-free is that doughs made without wheat flour are “grainy” and don’t taste authentic. This means no pizza, bread and all those other wonderful doughy foods. For this recipe, instead of subbing out wheat flour for another kind, I just skipped the dough completely. Quinoa and beans are…

Pan-Fried Spicy Szechuan Vegan Shrimp
Mock seafood. It can’t actually be like real seafood, can it? Yes. Yes it can. I am actually still in awe over how cool this vegan shrimp is. I’m not sure if there are other brands, but this one is Sophie’s Kitchen. I saw it at a health food store last week and thought I’d…
Two-Cheese Eggplant and Arugula Bagel Sandwich
Bad at thinking up lunch ideas? Try this out. It takes a bit of prep time in advance but it will be much more satisfying than grabbing a sandwich from some cafeteria that’s been sitting there for hours. There’s also not a great variety of vegetarian sandwiches at most delis unless you happen to work…
Smoky Tempeh ‘Bacon’
I’ve been a vegetarian for a long time now, but even when I did eat meat as a kid, I never really loved bacon. But even so, every time my family eats bacon it looks really appetizing, even though I already know how it tastes. I also can’t watch Epic Meal Time without getting a…
Gluten-Free Banana, Walnut and Raspberry Yogurt Mini Muffins
A lot of people struggle in the morning with eating breakfast, let alone packing a proper lunch. Mini-muffins are perfect for people who don’t have a big appetite in the morning, or who don’t have a lot of time. You can store them during the week for when you’re in a rush, and they’re gluten-free!…
Seitan and Ale Stew
Seitan has always kind of been this mystical creature of vegetarian cooking for me. I hear about it, I read about it, but I never see it anywhere. This recipe is my pick from the submissions I recieved thanks to Alex from In Vegetables We Trust, andthe result was the best stew I have ever…
Sweet Potato and Orange Zest Soup
Sweet potatoes can be one of the best foods out there if you cook them properly. I prefer mine savoury either as fries, in soups or in casseroles. I’m not too big of a fan when people add cinnamon and other sweet spices; it seems sort of unnecessary and gets over-powering very quickly. That being…
Roasted Beet and Sweet Potato Sliders
I’ve mentioned before in some of my posts that soggy bread is my worst enemy. It’s disgusting. It’s not like I want my sandwich to be bone-dry, I just don’t want a layer of mush surrounding my filling. Here are a few good ways to avoid soggy bread. The most obvious one is toast your…
Kale Chips
Kale chips are the easiest snack to make if you’re looking for something light and healthy. They barely need any seasoning, and even if you’re not a huge fan of raw or steamed kale the crunchiness makes their flavour a little less bold. Not only that, but these are a great source of iron too….
Jalapeno Popper Stuffed Mushroom Caps
Let’s talk about bacon. I feel like with the explosion of shows like Epic Meal Time people went into a bacon craze that lasted for years. Bacon toothpaste, lip balm, vodka…you name it. This might have been good news for meat-eaters, but for vegetarians it was hard to find an appetizer at a bar that…
