Flax seeds loaves

Flax Seed Bread Loaves

If you know me, you know that I love bread! Whether it is a warm crispy French baguette, a nice Ciabatta roll, homemade focaccia, toasted dill rye, or some hearty pumpernickel… what I don’t love about bread though, is how addictive it is. I can eat an entire baguette in one sitting! It must come […]

Thai Pineapple Fried Rice

Eggless Mini Pepper Quiche

Golden milk tea

Glorious Golden Milk Paste

I never had problems sleeping my whole life until I hit menopause. The combo of weight gain, hot flashes, which is essentially our hormonal system going into supersonic mode for no good reason, can really disrupt the body’s ability to fully rest, repairs and restores itself. No wonder we get cranky from time to time! […]

Ma'amoul date filled cookies

Vegan Maamoul Cookies

I recently found a mason jar filled with old dried dates in the pantry. They looked like they had been there for a long time. They didn’t look very plump but I knew that if I rehydrated them I could at least make some date paste or syrup. What can you do with that? You […]
