We wanted to make a few ideas we had for a nice romantic Valentine’s day dinner. Naturally, the dessert was the easiest idea to come up with: chocolate!

Gluten Free Vegan Meatball Bread

These little balls of bread are very delicious. They go very well with our marinara sauce! Obviously these make a great Super Bowl snack as well.

Sometimes failures can be a success in the kitchen, rarely, but sometimes. Here is how I made them: Continue reading Gluten Free Vegan Meatball Bread

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!

Recently, I was sitting at the computer contemplating what kind of food I wanted to make in the future. Nothing was really coming to mind and for some reason I kept thinking about the two layer eggplant lasagna I had made a few months back. I started wondering if I should attempt another lasagna. How could I make improvements to a dish that is already one of my favorites though? Then it hit me: lasagna pizza! Why had I never thought of this before? It was time to get to work… Continue reading Lasagna Pizza
