Some of you may have heard, I’m bidding a very fond farewell to the Noe Valley Farmers Market at the end of this month. That means you’ve still got 3 weeks to visit me. For my sweet regulars, I’ll still be making bread & treat deliveries in April. ‘What’s up with this?!’ you’re asking? I … Continue reading
Searching for a cornstarch free baking powder is hard, especially if you want one that’s also aluminum free. I’ve used some online recipes that clumped up after storing them for a week or 2 or just didn’t produce a great end result. I highly recommend this blend… And you can make it yourself! It’s super … Continue reading
It’s not often I enjoy a real breakfast. Don’t get me wrong- I have something EVERY morning but it’s usually a loaded soy-free protein shake. Vega for instance. On weekends it’s nice to indulge when I have a little more time. Waffles are easy & fun to make. More successful than pancakes, in which I … Continue reading
After the super bowl, my love for my crockpot was rekindled. I was craving a warm dip but what to make??? Vegan spinach artichoke dip. Totally possible. So I just threw these items into the crock pot. Stirred every 10ish minutes until it was melty goodness. 1 bag Daiya mozzerella vegan cheese (soy-free!) 1 package … Continue reading
Oh wait… the ‘holidays’ are over. But life certainly hasn’t slowed down. The Noe Valley Farmers Market keeps getting better & better. This past weekend, I completely sold out! Ok, I brought home some raw chocolates but every single whoo(pie)², scone & cookie plus the mini-coconut-cake meant to be for display only SOLD! I really … Continue reading
Soo you’ve been educated on what a whoo(pie) is but you may be curious what ingredients are used. Some are a few of my favorite things. But by far one of the tastiest and very local producers I lean on is Artisana. Fine producer of raw nut butter, coconut butter and oil. They were awesome … Continue reading
My latest craving… herbal mint latte of sorts. To create this naturally decaf delicious concoction place one teaspoon Teeccino plus a herbal mint tea bag in a French Press and top with hot water (or just brew the coffee and immediately add the tea bag). Top with a splash of coconut milk. Drink it UP! … Continue reading
Macaroni salad…. ahh the fat laden, gluten-contaminated creamy concoction we always find at bbqs on holidays such as Labor Day. How about you take your own version that will fool the rest of those fools? Ingredients: 4 cups uncooked elbow macaroni pasta 1 cup (Earth Balance soy-free olive oil) mayo 2 1/2 tablespoons yellow mustard … Continue reading
… Buttercup would make you waffles! But I don’t (for now) so I’m just going to have to share my latest creation for enjoyment on your own. This is an updated version of my previous adventure… bummer I forget to at least take pictures! Too busy enjoying a new favorite. These waffles are more flavorful … Continue reading
I never thought of what i do as holistic baking… then I came across this interview with Kasey Caletti, Culinary Curriculum Manager, Bauman College in Berkeley, CA. Listen to Flour, Sugar and Fat: An Organic Conversation First I’ll give props to Bauman College for sparking my interest in the culinary arts (second to my mom … Continue reading
