Vegan MoFo 2015: Oatmeal-Stuffed Peaches with Cardamom and Cinnamon

Hello, beautiful people! The Vegan Month of Food (MoFo) 2015 has finally arrived. That means I am back at it creating healthy, vegan dishes each day for the entire month of September. My goal is to try and post 5-6 times per week. This year, the organizers changed up the structure of the event, by providing prompts for each day. This allows for vegan / vegan-friendly social media folk to participate in MoFo without having a set theme. However, I will still have a theme (because themes rock, lezbereal). This year’s will be Half-Marathon Training Fuel. I am currently training for the Rock ‘N Roll Philadelphia Half-Marathon on Halloween, so I am going to provide tips and recipe ideas for accomplishing a half-marathon propelled by plants. I also wanted to mention that I am actually not vegan! I support veganism, and eat vegan ~70% of the time, but am just a vegetarian. I love participating the MoFo because it challenges me not only to create a slew of recipes, but also to eat even more …

Cherry-Lime Smoothie Bowl

Yes, I have fallen off the blogging horse. Work has been rather busy over these past few weeks, and I didn’t had the energy to create, write, and edit for this little blog of mine. Nor did I had the desire to come home and stare at a computer screen when I had already been staring at one all day. Hopefully, this was just an ebb in the ebb and flow of my work life. It seems to have settled over the past 2 weeks or so, and I have been enlivened with a spark to create once again. If you know me, you know that I don’t handle stress very well. I try to, and I can handle it if need be (I did survive the ultra-competitive environment of Penn, after all), but I am a struggle bus all the way to the finish line. It’s funny- all throughout high school and college, I would procrastinate like no tomorrow. Paper due at 12 am? I’m still putting the finishing touches on it at 11:55pm, …

Blog Reno Unveiling, with Apple-Banana Oat Tatin and Perfect Pecan Butter

Hello, friends. Welcome to my renovated blog! I have moved over to WordPress, redone the site, and bought my own domain: vegfiend.com. I will no longer be posting to vegfiend.blogspot.com. You’ll see I have a new menu on the site (hardy har har), organized by meal (breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, dessert), which I will be building over the next few weeks. I also now have an Instagram account, and a Facebook page. Follow me on Insta and like my FB page to get more whole-food vegetarian recipes and see more frequent snippets of my real-life (bumbling) recipe creation. Let me know what you think of this new site design! Any feedback is gratefully appreciated. I craved a cast-iron skillet like mad a few months back. From the stove to the oven? Yes, please. A pan that develops flavor the more you love it, the more you create within it. I felt like my entire cooking world had the possibility to be changed, broadened, for the better good. So I did as I normally do, browse …
