Gluten Free Vegan Banana Bread

Gluten Free Vegan Banana Bread

I really have been wanting to make gluten free vegan banana bread for a while. It seemed we kept buying bananas that were nowhere near ripe enough to pull it off for the longest time! Of course, by the time the bananas were almost ripe enough to make the bread we had eaten them all! I finally was able to do it though and it was very delicious!

This gluten free vegan orange chicken is bursting with flavor! There are a few steps and it requires some patience to make it; however, it’s worth it! Do not be afraid to venture into the unknown!

I woke up this morning with a little bit of hunger. As I sat contemplating what I wanted to make I realized it had been a long time since I had tasted a good buttermilk pancake. The only question I had was if I could make gluten free vegan buttermilk pancakes. If you are only on a gluten free diet, you’re all set. However, if you are on a vegan diet as well, it takes an extra step or two. Here is how I did it: Continue reading Gluten Free Vegan Buttermilk Pancakes

Μπριαμ! Vegetables in the Oven

Μπριαμ! Vegetables in the OvenI suppose my ancestors couldn’t come up with any other word for this recipe than μπριάμ (bree-Ahhm), which doesn’t mean anything in particular from what I know! For this recipe you take vegetables and cook them in a pan in the oven, all together, until they are soft and yummy! Hence the name we gave it: vegetables in the oven.
You can use eggplants, potatoes, zucchinis and

Roasted Red Pepper Hummus

Roasted Red Pepper Hummus

I love roasted red pepper hummus and have not had it since I moved to Greece. I’ve always known it was easy to make but I was so used to being able to buy it almost anywhere in Minnesota. My sister and her boyfriend sent us a huge vegan cookbook as a Christmas gift (thanks Krysti and Jacob!) and as of right now it is the only cookbook we own. It has almost 300 pages packed with recipes so it may be the only cookbook we will ever need to own! The name of the cookbook is Veganomicon by Isa Chandra Moskowitz & Terry Hope Romero (click here for link) and it is amazing. We have made some modifications to this recipe after we made it a few times. We prefer our hummus to be runnier than the book’s recipe turned out.  Continue reading Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
