Since becoming a mom of two kids, I find that I don't post on here as much as I used to. However, I still take pictures of most of the food I make, especially meals for the kids. I will try to at least post the pictures with brief descriptions to continue sharing what a vegan and her family eats! Please feel free to contact me for a recipe! Enjoy!

I Love Chloe's Kitchen!
This is turning out to be a great cookbook. I tried three more recipes and they were all so delicious.
First of all, I made the No Soy Soy Sauce for the Chow Mein the other night, and it was surprisingly good and tasted just like soy sauce.
Then, I made the "Pancakes for Dinner!" for breakfast yesterday. I almost didn't attempt these at all because I have NEVER had luck with vegan pancakes. Believe me, I've tried. A lot. Not only that, but I was going to use Gluten-free flour, which I've never used before. All these factors did not equal favorable odds of a successful pancake.
I decided to make steel-cut oats instead.
While that was all boiling, I finally gave in to the pancake temptation and whipped up the batch from Chloe's cookbook. AND THEY TURNED OUT! It worked! I made vegan, gluten-free pancakes and they were delicious! I can not believe it.
The next recipe I tried was the Sweet Potato Gnocchi in a Butter Sage Sauce for dinner. Again, this was totally gluten-free and who would know?! I can't even begin to describe how delectable these were. Get this book and make them ASAP. By the way, these are a huge husband-pleaser.
Side note: I didn't read beforehand that the recipe called for red-skinned sweet potatoes, so I just bought the potatoes that were under a sign saying "sweet potatoes" and not the ones under a sign saying "yams." I think these gnocchi are supposed to be orangey like yams. Are yams and sweet potatoes the same thing? I don't know, but they were still really good.
