I used this Betty Crocker recipe for blueberry muffins. I used soy kefir (any plant milk is fine or even a vegan yogurt. I had to use a bit more kefir than the recipe called for milk because of its thickness.) and Bob's Red Mill Egg Replacer in place of the milk and egg. Some... Continue Reading →
Cracker-crusted tofu cutlets and vegan scalloped potatoes!
So I did make the cracker-crusted tofu cutlets today for dinner. I froze my tofu last night and let it thaw today. That way it drained very easily and was dry and dense. Then I made maybe 1/4 to a 1/3 cup of concentrated broth out of mushroom seasoning and nooch (to make a chicken-like... Continue Reading →
Walmart trip, a neighborhood treasure is closing for good :(
So we went to Wal-Mart on Saturday. We spent almost $100 but I decided to grab the kid two more pairs of summer PJs, which accounted for about $25 so I was pretty close! I ended up getting a huge bag of garlic because it's a big money savings in the long run so that... Continue Reading →
Saffron rice, roasted vegetables, field roast vegan sausage, Trader Joe’s vegan creamy dill dressing, and hemp hearts
Hello folks. Yes, I’m still alive. For all of our two or three avid followers, who were wondering. 😆 Life has been good, but I’ve certainly had some ups and downs. I’ve had days when I was crying my eyes out over certain disappointing things that happened and other days when things really went fabulously.... Continue Reading →
$65 for like nothing, I swear!
I just thought it'd be fun to show what I'm going to buy at Walmart tomorrow. I actually am not going to get the Westsoy unsweetened soymilk I wanted to get, which is about $5, because it appears out of stock (so that would have brought the total to about $70). Of course, the melatonin... Continue Reading →
Rice cakes turned into a sweet snack/dessert!
So my cute little boy loves to help grocery shop and he doesn't really get the concept of skipping items when you already have them. I had been really into eating avocado on rice cakes with a bit of bagel seasoning but after a few weeks of that, I don't know if I'll ever want... Continue Reading →
I figured out how to make sugar-free cornbread vegan!
I have been missing cornbread that has no sweetness, except for the natural sweetness of cornmeal but the one time I tried it years ago, I think I used flax egg. It tasted weird and didn't stay together. I have found vegan cornbread recipes but they all have sugar and generally A LOT of sugar.... Continue Reading →
Freezer meals with food I already have
So I am trying to deplete my food hoard, y'all! Yes, I have so many deals in the freezer and in my makeshift pantry (a large Rubbermaid container and a cardboard box along with a kitchen cart and an actual cabinet pantry in my kitchen), but I am overwhelmed and groceries are EXPENSIVE now so...

Dollar Tree food and struggle
Even though there's rarely vegan recipes, lately I've been enjoying watching Dollar Tree recipes. I don't know why exactly. Perhaps a part of me worries the economy could collapse and we'll need to really watch our budget? Maybe it's the fact I have struggled in the past and had to cook on a strict budget?...
