I like putting cashew parmesan on my favorite meals, like Eggplant Parmesan, roasted vegetables, and pizza. So life just wasn’t the same without it. And I know many of you have been in a similar boat trying to avoid nutritional yeast. So I got to work developing a yeast-free version of the classic recipe. The trick to making major swaps like this is replacing the ingredient with something that tastes similar or reminds your brain of the flavors of the ingredient you’re omitting....

Let’s get started with an apple pie sundae, shall we? This naturally sweetened apple pie sundae is what I go for when I’m craving apple pie but don’t actually want to make a whole pie (namely the crust). I learned this technique from my mom (thanks, Mom!). Simply peel and slice apples and cook on the stovetop with a little cinnamon and (coconut) sugar until tender, and then turn up the heat at the end to slightly caramelize....

This is the first time I made the healthier snack by baking them. I was not expecting much from baked goods because it cannot beat the texture of deep-fried one. But it was beyond my expectation. The texture and taste were just fantastic. The texture is crispy yet flaky. It was not dry at all. I have used these baked papdi in making papdi chaat recipe (coming up next). I have made two plates, one using baked papdi and second using the fried papdi....

What the who is that? It’s BBQ jackfruit – aka the ticket to reclaiming your favorite BBQ sandwich. Hubba. Hubba. This recipe was inspired by the talented folks at FuD – a vegan eatery in Kansas City.

I’d seen jackfruit in Asian stores before and was intimidated by the way it looked....

The filling is poured over the baked (and cooled) crust and cooled as we work on the topping!...

This frosting is not only simple – 8 ingredients required – but it also comes with 2 flavor variations: “Classic” and “Tangy Cream Cheese.” The first is great for instances when you want a vegan buttercream for things like Funfetti Cupcakes, and the second is preferred for cakes that call for cream cheese frosting like Zucchini Cake!

Next I blended the two together, baked it until it was all warm and bubbly and voila: Creamy Brussels Sprout and Shallot Dip. So easy and so delicious.

I take my appetizers seriously. This cheesy kale and spinach dip is my vegan take on classic spinach and artichoke dip, which is typically laden with cheese – my former love. But since we’ve broken up, I’ve replaced the cheese-shaped hole in my heart with cashew cream and vegan parmesan and haven’t looked back. Who needs the real thing when the substitutes are healthier and taste amazing? That’s what I say....

When apple season comes around it doesn’t seem right not to make a pie. It’s John’s favorite — and probably mine, too. Cherry and pecan don’t have anything on apple. But pumpkin? We’ll get to that later… This pie was inspired by my love for all-things deep dish (hello simple deep dish pizza!), and my recent discovery of the perfect oat-pecan crumble (which is gluten free). I took this pie over to some friends and didn’t start it until an hour and a half before leaving, so it comes together pretty quick....
