As I recall, I didn’t have my first morning glory muffin until later in life than I probably should have. I remember it well. I got one from Rainbow Grocery on Capitol Hill in Seattle and loved it (this was well before it, sadly, closed). I’ve been thinking about morning glory muffins a lot lately […]

Zucchini Bread Pancakes
Just in time for the weekend, here’s a recipe for a great Saturday morning breakfast or brunch. Not to be mistaken for the savory zucchini pancakes from last week, these are breakfast pancakes that taste just like zucchini bread. I’ve been daydreaming about these for a while now, imagining what they might taste like and […]
Curried Pumpkin Soup
I’m finally ready to admit it’s fall. The leaves are officially changing and dropping to the ground. The weather has turned and the days are getting shorter. I’ve pulled out my fall coat and scarves from the closet. For me, this soup epitomizes fall. It’s pumpkin — one of the stars of autumn produce — and […]
Savory Zucchini Pancakes with Homemade Applesauce
What should you make when the end of zucchini season runs into apple season? Zucchini pancakes topped with fresh homemade applesauce, of course! I’ve always been a fan of latkes (a traditional Jewish potato pancake dish) and I’ve always loved them topped with both applesauce and sour cream. This recipe is reminiscent of that. I used some […]
Last of the Heirloom Tomatoes
There are still a few heirloom tomatoes at the farmers markets in Seattle. I’m not letting go of summer completely until the heirlooms are gone. In these last days of summer tomatoes, I’ve been enjoying them more and more simply. Here are few ideas that require little to no preparation: Sliced and plain, these ripe tomatoes […]
Chocolate Cherry Bars
These bars are sweet, but not too sweet, are full of rich flavors, and they travel well. If you’re headed out on a trip and are looking for something delicious, vegan, raw, and sustaining, these bars are just the thing. I generally like to eat bars when I’m on the move — either travelling, going to […]
Chocolate Maca Smoothie
Chaco Canyon Café has been our go-to spot for eating out this summer. They’ve got wonderful raw options and some really great cooked food and sandwiches. They also have an extensive juice and smoothie bar menu. One of our favorite smoothies at Chaco is their ‘Chaco Maca’ smoothie. We like them so much, we’ve been […]
Heirloom Tomatoes with Creamy Pesto & Kalamata Tapenade
The weather has started to turn rainy, which in Seattle is a sign of fall and winter coming. We’re having more and more cloudy days (which I love!) and the temperatures are cooling. But heirloom tomatoes are still the star of the farmers markets. Heirloom tomatoes taste like summer and, paired with the fresh, bright […]
Frozen Banana Blackberry Torte
Since Eric and I have been eating raw, we’ve been eating a ton of frozen banana soft serve ‘ice cream.’ If you’re unfamiliar with this delightful treat, it’s just frozen bananas in the food processor (or high-powered blender) until smooth and creamy. It’s the best soft serve ice cream I’ve ever had. I don’t know […]
Nectarine Crumble on a Cloudy Morning
Morning! I woke up this morning to a foggy Seattle day and, as I was drinking my green juice and reading my blog reader, I was delighted to find that Carrie of Carrie on Vegan had posted two lovely recipes for peach crumble. Thanks, Carrie, for a little inspiration on a cloudy morning! I love peaches […]
