I have a confession to make. The part I dislike the most about cooking is cleaning up. Am I right, girlfriend? And no one can make a bigger mess than me. But when stainless steel cookware like 360 Cookware comes along and nothing sticks to it, cooking has become fun again. And get this. No [...]

Want to lose weight and therefore ditch the vegetable cooking oil? Or maybe you want to throw out the Teflon pans since they contain dangerous polytetrafluoroetheylene (PTFE.) 360 Cookware, a stainless steel cookware, allow you to cook without oil and is Teflon free. I couldn’t believe it until I tried one myself! How Can You [...]
Many of you know that I have turned vegetarian with a bent towards vegan-ism. Hubby has really been enjoying a tofu egg-less salad at the local heath food shop. But at $7 a pound I figured I could make it as well. As an avid reader of Vegetarian Times, I recalled an amazing sounding Eggless [...]
Welcome guest poster, Lindsay Nixon of Happy Herbivore, my newest must follow vegan cooking blog. Lindsay, at my request. writes about how you can turn old favorites into low fat vegan, healthier dishes: When people most hear the phrase “low fat,” images of tasteless cardboard cookies, diet bars and unappetizing salads come to mind—-at least [...]
Anna, why so quiet lately? Well, first there was Son #4 Bar Mitzvah and now I am turning my attention to my neglected garden which is teaming with wild garlic. My back garden resembles the picture above. Just add in over 100 wild garlic and you get the picture. And yes, I am crazy [...]
When I was four years old, my mother decided that she didn’t want to cook meat anymore because she loved animals too much. She didn’t understand why it was accepted to eat cows, pigs, and chickens but not other animals—after all, weren’t they just as worthy of their lives? After some deliberation, she stopped purchasing [...]
I bet you thought I forgot about Meatless Monday with it being Valentine’s Day? Nope. Not a chance. And to boot, I have a lip smacking sandwich down to last bite. Roasted Almond Butter with slices of pear with a drizzle of Agave on it. Doesn’t that sound delish? As you can see above, I [...]
For Meatless Monday, I made a Chickpea Tagine with Cinnamon, Cumin, and Carrots from Vegetarian Times. Since I am soy-free, and now gluten free as well as leaning towards vegan, it has become a challenge to find great recipes. How many of you are on similar diets? Well, this one is so simple and I [...]
When I read the Environmental Leader’s recent article about the USDA’s decision to plow the way for the planting of genetically modified alfalfa, I was pissed. My nice girl attitude gloves came off and I thought of nasty names to call the USDA (Monsanto’s b-tch. Monsanto’s Mistress, etc.) When can genetically modified anything be good when the jury is still [...]
For Meatless Monday, I wanted to share one of my favorite recipe, Vegan Cookbook’s vegan, soy-free meatballs. As I told you in my Tempeh Brown Rice post, it has been challenging cooking for children who eat like cavemen and parents who now eat a vegetarian diet. So, I have tried to find recipes that I [...]
