Dark Chocolate Smoothie

What if I told you that chocolate was the healthiest food in the world? Would you believe me? Because it’s true. It has iron, magnesium, copper, a ton of antioxidants, and even fiber.

German Pretzel Buns

If you have been following my Instagram or previous blog recipes, such as my German Mac and Cheese (Nudelauflauf), you can probably guess that I come from a German family.

Baked Cauliflower Schnitzel

It took me a while to find my favourite method of breading. I tried to ‘veganize’ my mom’s method of breading schnitzel with garbanzo egg but it just wouldn’t stick. But, batter breading is my new fave! Not only is this recipe vegan, it’s also entirely oil-free. Can you make breaded cauliflower gluten free? I […]
