This is the second post in my series about our mini vacation getaway to the Finger Lakes region in NY. Please check out my first post about the awesome vegan B & B JuneBug Lodge HERE. This installment will focus on one of the most well known attractions of the area – Watkins Glen State…
Last year during the late summer and early fall months I noticed so many of my friends posting on Facebook that they were going to the Finger Lakes. Honestly, other than the quick reference in an episode of The Office, I never heard of the Finger Lakes. However with so many people headed up there…
I posted the process of making this meatloaf, using Impossible Foods grounds, on my Instagram story last night and received so many requests for an actual recipe I figured I better get to it! This is sort of a hybrid recipe – I know some people use onion soup mix for their meatloaf. My grandmother,…
Growing up, one of the first things I learned to help my grandmother make is an Italian flat cookie called a pizzelle. They are made from a thick batter using an electric pizzelle iron.

So here we are a month into a Stay at Home quarantine to help curb the spread of COVID-19 – what a crazy time to be alive. As frustrating as this self isolating can be, it has freed up time to work on or tweak recipes. Last Sunday was Easter. Growing up we always had…

Violife took the vegan scene by storm, with their creamy, flavor filled cheese that melts really well. Their cheddar is on point flavor wise, so we decided to test…

The gun went off and I was startled. Was it supposed to be this loud? People started going, fast, while I just kind of stood at the starting line in a cherry printed cotton tank top and gray cotton shorts. My sneakers were 2 years old, and I didn’t know…
The other night I was scrolling through my IG Page and came across some shenanigans from my friends The Food Duo. Seems like they were bored one night and decided to toss some tofu into a waffle iron! Low and behold not only did it look really good, they confirmed that it tasted great! So…
