A word of caution if you decide to make these: they’re stupidly addictive. Seriously. The recipe only makes a batch of 12 and they’re kind of meant to be party food. That means you could easily put a big dent in your supply of pre-dinner snacks intended for your guests. Consider making a double batch! What Are Phyllo Cigars? Phyllo cigars are little baked phyllo tubes that are stuffed with…well, just about anything!...
If there’s one vegan dish that you could absolutely fool your non-vegan friends with, it’s these vegan stuffed shells. Vegan ricotta cheese is one of the simplest dairy substitutes out there, and it’s VERY convincing. It really shines in this recipe. I’ve been known to snack on the ricotta filling right out of the food processor, on little pieces of bread or crackers (pro-tip: make extra if this sounds like something you’d do!...
Last year when I went to India, my mother gifted me a very useful item for my kitchen – a Paniyaram maker. My mother, who is a retired teacher understands that it’s not easy to manage the kitchen with office every day.

She herself has used it a lot in her kitchen so knows how useful it is to make a quick and healthy breakfast every morning....

Even I see ingredients that I’m positive are non-compliant, only to remember that they’re actually okay, though maybe not encouraged....

As someone who shares mostly savory recipes on her blog, I’m always super impressed by people who do the same thing with desserts. Personally, I’m incapable. I just can’t handle the sugar rush that comes with creating recipes for sweets! I mean, I don’t consider myself to have a massive sweet tooth or anything (just a little one!), but when you’re shooting photos of vegan peach cobbler in the afternoon and getting gobs of vegan cobbler and ice cream everywhere, you can’t not snack on it....

Years ago a friend from New Orleans gifted me a jar of blackened seasoning. Initially I had no idea what to do with the stuff. Isn’t this stuff for meat? I thought. I felt obligated to experiment in the kitchen with my newly acquired spice blend, mostly so as to not hurt my friends feelings. Well guess what? I loved it! As it turned out, there was a lot I could do with it....
January has been an epic month of recipe fails for me. It’s been rough, and made even worse by the fact that I slacked off over the holidays and got behind on recipe development, thinking I’d catch up during the new year. Well that hasn’t happened so far! So I ended up scrapping a few of my recipe ideas that just wouldn’t work, and instead turned to something simple, tried, and true....
