Christ is risen! Who doesn’t love a good pasta dish? One so good you are transported to Italia! I love a good pasta; it is rare to find me eating a tomato based sauce. If you do, its because the marinara sauce is divine. Choosing the wrong tomatoes can mess up a sauce that is…

Mama’s Meatballs by Veganize It!
Christ is Risen! This is my go to ‘meatball’ recipe!!! I have tried so many and I think this is the one. I enjoy making this recipe when making food for large gatherings (especially for church! It is a hit for the fasting days) or for a quick dish to make for dinner because the…
Chocolate Babka (Polish Bread) by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau
Christ is risen! I came across this recipe and decided to give it a try! I started to first make bread with the sun dried tomato bread recipe I posted recently. I felt inspired to keep learning about bread making. The kneading, to be quite frank, is the part that discouraged from making bread but…
Maqui Berry Lemonade by Julie Morris

Vegan Crab Cakes from Vegan Huggs Blog
Christ is risen! This has been my personal favorite faux crab cakes recipe. I stumbled upon it years ago and it’s my go to since. It is very easy to make, and if you don’t have chickpeas on hand, canned artichoke hearts can be used– I’ve tried it both ways and both are excellent. When…
Hummus with Tahini
Christ is risen! I’ve been making this recipe for about 6 years or so now and its been my go to recipe ever since I found it. Joseph Shuldiner uses baking soda in his recipe when soaking the chickpeas overnight; I use apple cider vinegar. When taking classes at the Natural Gourmet Institute, I learned…
Spring Ingredients
Christ is risen! I fasted not only from certain foods and passions, I fasted from music. Music is a major soul uplifter for me, but during Great Lent I practiced going to and relying on God as the source to uplift my soul. I made little progress, if any, but its probably better something and…
Easter Recipes I will be using time and time again
Christ is Risen! Hello my dear ones! The photo above sums up pretty much the last few months what I have been striving for: trying to be deep in prayer. I have not written for many months, please forgive me. I tend to get muscle spasms, sciatica, and back pain; I was in no mood…
Carrot and Spinach Breakfast Muffins
Christ is Risen! Glory be to God! Another recipe to share from Phaidon’s “The Greek Cookbook”. So far, nothing has been a disappointment from this cookbook. The recipes are easy to make vegan for someone who has an intolerance to dairy. The flavor combination of dill and cumin and the Greek yogurt is a mixture…
