Plant Based "Chicken" & Broccoli Alfredo


This is a quick, delicious, and quite healthy dinner. Featuring plant based soy curls as the "chicken" and a cashew based Alfredo sauce, it serves great as a one pot dinner or paired with garlic bread and a garden salad.

Spring Foraging in the PNW

As spring arrives to the PNW, we start to look forward to warmer (possibly) dryer weather but it's all that rain that has the first plants peeking their heads out of the earth, coming back to life after their long winter slumber. For me and my children, spring often means lots and lots of walks through the woods behind our home. There we watch the birds build their nests, take note of what's blooming that wasn't before, watch the creek to see how high or low the water is, and (my favorite) begin our foraging season. Today I want to show four of our favorite edible and medicinal plants that are readily available in early spring. You can find separate posts with more detailed info on each plant. This is just an overview of one of my foraging trips in early spring. Yesterday I set out with my trusty foraging bag (a macrame jute bag with a long strap), my camera and, most unusually, all alone. Normally my kiddos will join me when I go walking but sometimes the peac...

The Creamiest Plant Milk

I've used it on cereal, mixed with chocolate syrup to make the kids chocolate milk, in baking, in my coffee, as the base for cream sauces... It's delicious and creamy and absolutely perfect.

Which makes it absolutely perfect for making alfredo sauce or a base for vegan mac and cheese. It will also help thicken up creamy soups, and creamy soups happen to be one of my favorite things to eat ever. Not a single stor...

Cinnamon Cardamom Dutch Baby

So if you choose to click and buy, thank you. It means a lot to us. Dutch babies are popular breakfast at our house. They're quick to make and a delicious and healthy start to the day. They also use up a few eggs when our chickens are providing more than we really know what to do with! Interestingly enough, while Dutch babies may have come from the German Pfannkuchen, the version most popular today originated in the early 1990's at a cafe in Seattle, WA. Manca's Cafe, owned by Victor Manca, is where the name Dutch Baby originated with one of his daughter's and the cafe claims they owned the trademark to the term as early as 1942! However the history goes, these have been a favorite of my family for over a decade and my kids are never sad when I announce we're having Dutch Babies for breakf...
