I had a few lovely long green peppers in my vegbox and I wasn’t quite sure what to do with them. I decided to stuff them with things I might like for breakfast and have stuffed breakfast peppers! What I did is get some vegan sausage and break them into tiny pieces and mix them…

butternut squash pie
Happy thanksgiving! Continuing on with my butternut squash adventures, I roasted and puréed some butternut squash to make pie for thanksgiving. I wasn’t sure how it would go, but I had enough squash so that if it were a disaster, I could try again. That is the joy of the giant butternut squash. About a…
2-4-1 veg
It has been hot and like most people I haven’t felt much like making a fuss about dinner, so here are two easy things that don’t take much effort. I had a giant courgette/zucchini gifted to me from my kind neighbour, so I decided to make a dinner I enjoyed as a student—stuffed courgette/zucchini. Here…
rosemary chocolate chip cake
Normally I think a naked cake is not worth my attention, but this one is really amazing. I baked it for my wonderful friend Sabine, who made me a feast of fermented delights (kimchi, sauerkraut, honey fermented garlic, posh pickles, fruity kombucha) and send me home with yummy briny gifts. She is also up for…
easy chocolate chip cookies

I basically crumbled and mashed tater tots into a crust. It is cheap, yummy, and easy. Ingredients 4 cups frozen tater tots or frozen hashbrowns 1/2c optional…
savoury french toast
This is so easy and a good use of stale bread and a few lonely veg. Here is what you do: mix 2 eggs, about 1/2c of milk, lemon pepper, sumac, and salt in a small pie plate. Let the stale bread soak in a pie plate (flip it over to make sure both sides…
really good brownies
My go to brownie recipe is Mark Bittman’s which you can get here: https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1018653-brownies. It isn’t for everyone, but if you include dairy, eggs, and gluten in your diet, it is a solid recipe. It works best with good quality dark chocolate and can be made well in advance. It tastes good warm, room temperature,…
