I’ve never had legit clam chowder, and frankly, after slinging many bowls of the stuff while waiting tables in college, I don’t have the best feelings about this particular soup. So it took me a while to warm up to the idea of veganizing it. I’m glad I finally caved and created a vegan clam chowder recipe, because I actually love this version. It’s a creamy, New England style chowder (but I also have a recipe for Manhattan Style Vegan Chowder), and it has everything that’s good about clam chowder, and none of the bad....

So I posted red curry paste, and then got a bunch of people asking for green....

Have I mentioned how much I absolutely love pesto? Yeah, I have. Well, here’s something really cool about pesto that I’ve discovered since I started food blogging: you can make it out of all kinds of things. Traditional pesto is made with pine nuts, garlic, and basil. But you can switch up the nuts, and often nobody will be the wiser. In fact, I often do just that, because pine nuts are a bit pricey (this recipe uses walnuts)....

My mom used to make poppy seed dressing for family gatherings when I was growing up, and it was my favorite! But for whatever reason I never made it as an adult. Well, due to recent events and an inability for me to get my hands on my favorite store bought salad dressing (Trader Joe’s balsamic vinaigrette, in case you were wondering), I started experimenting with homemade dressings, which isn’t something I do that much....

Number one craving this pregnancy? You’d never guess it. Well, you might, considering the title of this post. You just might… OK, fine, it’s Whole30 coconut shrimp with orange sauce.
