Coconut Lime Tofu

Happy Saturday! We are off to a wedding today in Baltimore and the weather is just perfect here in Washington – I hope it is as nice in Baltimore. Before we head out for the day, I wanted to stop by and tell you about dinner: I had a total lime craving last night, so […]

The Best Intentions

August 26, 2010
Avocado and Sweet Potato Wrap

On Tuesday night, I decided to skip my usual Tuesday Night Yoga class and instead do a bit of child’s pose at home as my Tuesday Night Yoga.  As I have blogged before, I try to make this commitment about showing up rather than a full-length class.  Somehow having that consistency really helps – and […]

Sweet Freedom

August 25, 2010

I was so happy to find out that I won a copy of Ricki Heller’s Sweet Freedom recently (thank you This Dish is Veg).  It arrived right in the middle of an insane week where the dishwasher and the kitchen faucet both deciding it was time to stop working, quite spectacularly.  And my job was […]

Not-So-Faux After Eights

August 25, 2010
After Eights, made at home

I present you with homemade After Eights (but before we get to that, have you seen my Facebook page).When I saw that this month’s ingredient for S.O.S. Kitchen Challenge, sponsored by two of my favorite blogs, Affairs of Living and Diets, Desserts and Dogs, was mint, I immediately thought of After-Eights.  After-Eights are actually one […]

Saturday Eats

August 23, 2010
Whole Foods Lunch

I was going through my pictures and realized that I had somehow captured almost every single one of my Saturday eats, except my green smoothie, so thought I would share. I was out for most of the day on Saturday, though, and while I had packed a green smoothie (I invariably make more at breakfast […]

Gnocchi Obsession

August 23, 2010
020

  I made an important discovery this weekend.  Cafe Green‘s gnocchi are gluten-free.  I love love love gnocchi, so I have no idea why it had not occurred to me to ask before, especially considering Cafe Green, which serves a completely vegan menu, is very  gluten-free- and allergy-friendly.  This weekend the manager, Jimmy, walked me […]

Market Week Wrap-up and Dinner at Firefly

August 17, 2010

 Hello world – I just finally caught up over the weekend on all my Market Week posts.  I wish I had more time and inspiration this past week – but the dishwasher is leaking so out of commission, the kitchen faucet needs to be replaced as it is spraying water everywhere and no longer running […]

Market Week: Soup and Salad

August 12, 2010

 Market Week is sponsored by Kelly of Eat Make Read.  As much as I wish I could put together intricate meals to share with you this week, it’s definitely one of those weeks – so tonight, dinner was easy and simple – leftover Carrot Ginger Soup with some Kale Salad.  Perfect post-yoga food.  You might […]

August 11, 2010

Market Week is sponsored by Kelly of Eat Make Read. Today I am sharing with you one of my new favorite side dishes – roasted okra.  This year was the first year I bought okra at the market, and I was intrigued by the description of roasted okra while reading through FatFree Vegan‘s archives (and […]

Market Week: Post-Market Lunch

August 10, 2010

Market Week is a lovely event sponsored by Kelly of Eat Make Read.  The idea is to hit the market, take a picture of your haul, and cook five dinners from your market bounty. As I mentioned, I am modifying things a bit to fit my schedule, so my first contribution to Market Week is […]

Carrot Ginger Soup, Stovetop Optional

August 9, 2010
Carrot soup 002

Lately, I was craving Carrot Ginger soup, but wanted an easier, faster and non-coconut milk approach than the recipe I shared with you last year.  And I liked the idea of not turning on the stove at all in light of how hot it is.  I used my beloved rice cooker to steam the vegetables, […]

I Went Out for Pizza Today

August 7, 2010
Pete

Those six little words sound pretty innocuous, but I had not eaten pizza out in over a year – between having to follow a gluten-free diet, needing to avoid dairy like it’s my job and having trouble digesting eggs, pizza can be a challenge (most gluten-free pizza crusts have eggs in them).  Fortunately, I had […]
