Mace & Chai-Spiced Crumb Cake (and Mini-Muffin Variation)

Posted on January 4, 2012 by Sara

I made this recipe twice – the first time as a full cake for our Cherry Blossom Yoga vegan holiday potluck, the second time (after a little recipe tweaking) as mini-muffins for the Breakfast Yoga Club in The Woodlands. Both came out delicious, bu… Continue reading →

Easy Hash Brown Casserole

Posted on November 20, 2009 by Sara

This dish would make a great breakfast casserole to accompany some fresh fruit on those busy holiday mornings (think of it as a freeing version of hash browns). It would also make a wonderful, new side to those lovely vegan holiday entrees – such as black bean tamales! I can’t stress enough how wonderful and [...] Continue reading →

Box Brownies

Posted on November 9, 2009 by Sara

A few weeks or so ago, Marika (gal pal from Madcap Cupcake) blogged about the convenience of a boxed mix for baked goods – just veganizing them. Well, it’s been on my mind ever since..and Dad wanted brownies. He had a box in the pantry, and so I decided to give it a try! Normally [...] Continue reading →

Mole de Sopa

Posted on October 27, 2009 by Sara

Two of my favorite things in the wintertime are chili and chocolate…so here’s a delicious way to combine the two! I don’t know if it’s purely for the love of things spicy and love of things sweet, or if it’s because in Texas we never actually had cold winters (and hot soup with windows open [...] Continue reading →

Persephone’s Underworld-Famous Chili

Posted on October 15, 2009 by Sara

This chili recipe is known throughout the Underworld, and revered as the quintessential ‘Red Ribbon’ (since it’s hot down there, they don’t have blues..they have reds) Chili – and would you expect anything less from Persephone – the wife and Queen of the big man himself, Hades!? Of course not.. So here is a chili [...] Continue reading →

Double Chocolate Diablo

Posted on October 14, 2009 by Sara

As I sit here at the local Barnes & Noble (free wi-fi) in my chair that is so big my feet don’t reach the ground, I feel that childish giddy that comes with the cold weather and its natural companion, hot chocolate! I used So Delicious Coconut Milk beverage in this recipe, but any milk [...] Continue reading →

Revival: Breakfast Taquitos

Posted on October 2, 2009 by Sara

One of my favorite aspects of Autumn is the desire to make big, comfy breakfasts. Among these dishes include pancakes or waffles, coffee cakes, or the always-favorite breakfast burrito (aka taquito)! Long-time Primate readers will know just how much Jo and I love our burritos – and it must run in the family, right Casey [...] Continue reading →

Homemade Chunky Tomato Sauce

Posted on September 17, 2009 by Sara

I love pasta, but as a veggie-lover it seems weird to just have noodles and sauce (whereas, in a previous/non-vegan life that’s exactly how I liked it). But now, the meal just doesn’t feel complete unless there’s a little onion or red bell pepper, perhaps broccoli and nuts. I don’t buy jarred pasta sauces that [...] Continue reading →
