Garlic and Onion Pakoras
Garlic and Onion Pakoras MaryKate and I were on the same wave length about our first recipe, in that garlic must be fried somehow. I’ve looked at doing pakoras several times, but hadn’t gotten around to it. I mean, fried veggie fritters with Indian spices? How can that be bad? So when MaryKate sent me some…

Garlic Potato Scallion Snacks
In February, we’ve decided to play with garlic. Mmmmm, garlic. It’ll keep the vampires away, but it’s also good for colds and such. I’m guessing, with the load of elephant garlic I just roasted, we’ll just keep people far enough away not to share germs? Garlic is such an excellent base flavor for so many…

Whoopie Pies – Gluten-Free with Vegan Option
To cap off our Treat. Yo. Self. January. theme, I give you a big treat, Whoopie Pies. I’m fairly certain I’ve mentioned this before, but I’m originally from Maine. The whoopie pie is the official state treat of Maine and apparently the town of Dover-Foxcroft, Maine, has hosted the Maine Whoopie Pie Festival since 2009, according…

Coconut Milk Vegan Fudge
The first recipe I ever perfected was fudge. I admit, part of it had to do with the fact that fudge was something my mom had given up on making well. Starting in about middle school, to judge by the handwriting on the recipe card, I made many batches of fudge each winter. Teachers, family,…

Orange Chai Spiced Wine
To set the scene, it’s New Hampshire. It’s December. We got about a foot of snow in the past week and we’re expected to get a bit more soon. It’s freaking cold. So I need a hot drink, preferably with alcohol. I’ve been seeing posts about chai hot chocolate and hot chocolate red wine, but…

Gluten-free Vegan Dressing (aka “stuffing”)
So years ago, Denise and I posted a poll (which no longer works) as we disagree about whether the bread dish served with large birds is properly called “dressing” or “stuffing.” Denise argues that it’s stuffing. I argue that it’s stuffing IF it is stuffed into something (bird or vegetable, I don’t mind which) and…
