Baked Pears in Agave Lemon Syrup
Pears make great deserts, whether you add them to tarts, turn then into sherbet, or poach them. Poached pears are usually cooked in red wine. It wasn’t until I decided to make them that I realized how much wine is needed to poach 4 pears! I even used my favorite non-alcoholic red wine, Fre Rouge and […]
Creamy Dairy-Free Kulfi Ice Cream
The first time I tasted kulfi, I thought I died and went to heaven. After a rich and spicy Indian meal, it cleansed my palate, delivered just the right amount of sweetness, and creaminess. What I loved was that every bite was infused with a lovely cardamom and pistachio flavors, and yet I couldn’t see […]

Truth be told, that’s probably why since I became vegan I have had a number of epic failed cakes that came out a little too […]

Ok, so it was not […]
Refreshing Lemon Chia Parfait
So we made it through the unusual heatwave that hit Portland and Seattle this week! 110 in the Pacific Northwest! That was just crazy! Thank God we have air conditioning! All we wanted to eat was cold and refreshing food. Definitely no baking during these few days! The key is to stay hydrated and mineralized. That’s […]
