Pumpkin Latte

November 9, 2012 By Hazel Leave a Comment

I drink a lot of coffee. A LOT. Well, technically, I normally drink espresso. I love to serve it over ice with some soy milk. But I have never been a big fan of 'fancy' coffee... like lattes, cappicinos, frappes and the like. I get em every once in a while, but I prefer simple stuff. Soooo, I pretty much still don't know the difference between the fancy drinks and how much of this or that or what kind of this or that is in them! Let's call this a latte and call it a day :) It's very simple to … [Read more...]

Best Tofu Scramble EVER!

October 26, 2012 By Hazel Leave a Comment

So if for some reason you aren't a big tofu fan, but actually made it to this recipe... listen up! My tofu-hating husband really liked this stuff. If you have never cooked tofu, this would be one of the first things I would suggest making (or some fake cheesy-creamy sauce with silken tofu but that's cheating!). It's fairly simple and once you have learned how to work with tofu, you will realize how awesome it is! And if you have ever had tofu out or something and it was bad... don't let that … [Read more...]

I am so excited that it actually feels like fall (for now) around here. It makes me want to put pumpkin in just about everything! I made this killer pumpkin cream cheese that I wanted to share with you all - but I have made two different versions. There is the one I eat in the morning on toast or a bagel or something, where I use more pumpkin and less sugar. I am not super into sweetness, especially in the AM, so I prefer it this way. Then there is the kind you see in these pictures, which is … [Read more...]

Green Smoothie

October 4, 2012 By Hazel 1 Comment

I noticed a lot of talking about smoothies and what to put in em. I figured it would be a great time for me to post my green smoothie! Now... Don't be all 'ewwww it's greeeeen' because GREEN is GOOD! And more importantly, it doesn't taste green. It's a great way to sneak some veggies into your day - you can't complain about that! So first I will go over my basic green smoothie idea and then add on to it. Because really, everyone has their own tastes. You can always add to or take away … [Read more...]

Pumpkin Cheesecake Muffins

September 17, 2012 By Hazel Leave a Comment

Oh yes, I did it. I am posting a recipe using PUMPKIN. That means it is officially fall in my world! I have been waiting to crack open the pumpkin so I can start adding it to like, everything I bake. Yey! And this was the first recipe of my fall. I think it's deliciously delicious and just perfect. I got this recipe from VegWeb (I changed the name of the recipe because I am a unique little snowflake), one of my favorite vegan recipe sites. But it doesn't HAVE to be vegan, just use regular milk … [Read more...]
