Vegan Veggie rolls (Egg-less); Cooking and bonding with my daughter

Vegan Veggie rolls (Egg-less) Do you ever plan your meals in advance? If I’m going to be extremely busy, it’s something I do. I believe it’s important to have healthy food options available and so when I know I’m going to have a few days/weeks of nonstop business, I prep my meals in advance. With [...]

Vegan: Curried Zucchini Noodles w/Steamed Vegetables (Gluten-free)

During the warmer months, one of my favorite go to vegan dishes is a simple pasta. They are simple, delicious, and a unique way to introduce vegetables at your meal.

Vegan: Creamy Dhal with lightly sauteed collard greens and tomatoes

Creamy Dhal with lightly sauteed collard greens and tomatoes Earlier this week, I wrote about the Chana Masala I created. It was fun to make, and my daughter and I enjoyed eating it too.

Upcoming experiment: Baked veggie chips

In an earlier post, I mentioned how I went 100% raw for a little over a year. During that time, I purchased a food dehydrator and started experimenting with raw treats. Being the savory diva my snack of choice was the raw veggie chips I made. At the time, I was working out of the [...]

Vegan Cuisine: Spicy Black Beans & collard greens

Spicy Black Beans & Collard Greens When I think about the foods that I enjoy eating, I would have to put black beans and any type of leafy green high on that list. I really enjoy eating my dark greens. It wasn’t always that way. Years ago I would eat dark greens because I knew [...]

Swapping themes and blogging update

For my few readers out there /waves you can see I’ve swapped themes again. I’m simply not happy with the limited WP themes I have hosting my blog under WordPress so I know it’s only a matter of time before Not your Ordinary Momma moves to a hosted provider. I’ve used Lunar Pages for over [...]
