This Vegan Bacon Cheese Dip was created last fall, and as a write this I'm just thinking about how I can't wait to make it again. This recipe came together because I wanted an easy but delicious appetizer for something we do with our best friends called "Sh*tty Dinner Parties".

Hi, friends and happy August! Happy August, indeed. It's only the second day, and our schedule is filling up. Last night we celebrated our wedding anniversary with Impossible Burgers at Hopdoddy, and this weekend is going to be filled to the brim with super fun things like arcades, games, and dinner parties. August is always a busy month in our home as we balance those last bits of summer fun with back-to-school. Among other things that back-to-school brings, we like the routine of it. It's been a full summer for us, and we're both ready to enjoy this remaining bit of the season while moving on to the next.

A big part of our full summer this year was our trip to California. The very last thing we did before heading to the airport was settle into LA's finest chips and salsa flight at Malo in Silverlake.

How to Make Indoor Smoked BBQ Beet Nachos w/ Drunken Cashew Queso

These nachos, you guys. These indoor smoked beets, you guys. Indoor smoking, you guys! I'm obsessed, and I think you should be too.

This started when I wanted to make some nachos for the Big Game, and I thought that something BBQ-y would be a fun change of pace. However, vegan bbq tends to just mean stuff flavored with liquid smoke, and while I'm down with liquid smoke, I really wanted something smoked for real. I may be vegan, but I'm also Texan, and I know the difference.

Oooh boy! I know this is a bit luxurious for a Monday afternoon, but couldn't you just dive into this skillet of rich, creamy, cheesy, beery queso?

The Big Game is this weekend, and we already have football food on our minds over here. My husband and I watched vegan junk food cooking videos on Youtube last night, and I think that we were both pretending that our lentil-based dinner was pizza. This weekend is going to be so busy for us what with packing and all (!!!) so I'm not sure that we'll even be able to watch the game. However, that won't stop us from frying things, dipping things, and drinking things. This is the last bit of football until fall, and we gotta do what we gotta do.

It's almost New Year's Eve, and I've got a great vegan crowd-pleaser for you! These vegan cocktail meatballs are a classic mid-century American (I think?) appetizer that people just go crazy for. My non-vegan family requests them all of the time, and I'm happy to oblige. They're really tasty and so easy to whip up.

Merry Christmas, friends! This holiday has been busy busy busy this year. In fact, I'm writing this from my Oma's house to the sound of laughter and total dorkiness from my family behind me. This is our first Christmas home in two years, and it's been lovely so far. My Oma's house is like a hub for our whole family, and it's really great to be here again eating our weight in snacks and cozying up on the couch amidst my Oma's extensive old world Santa Claus collection. German Christmas is so magical, y'all.

In the life of a food blogger it's not uncommon to have a highly conceptualized post or recipe turn into something completely different halfway through. My original plan for this post was inspired by Binx, the black cat from Hocus Pocus. I envisioned dark black crackers served with an inoffensive green aquafaba hummus.

It was a worthy concept, but one that will never come to fruition in our kitchen.

I really struggled with what to call these Bacony Roasted Chickpeas. Although I've done it a bunch in the past, I really do try to avoid using non-vegan descriptors in my recipe titles. Even though I love to veganize things I don't love using words like bacon. It bums me out, you know?

However, there wasn't a better name for these suckers.

House Vegan’s Disneyland Week: How to Make Smoked Almond and Roasted Garlic Bean Dip



One bummer about our upcoming Disneyland trip is that the Wine Cellar no longer exists. Fellow Disneyland fans, did y'all know about this place? The Wine Cellar was a teeny tiny wine bar tucked away underneath the Disneyland hotel. Going in for a glass of California wine was one of our favorite things to do when we visited the park. The bar was cozy, very friendly, and never ever crowded. You could situate yourself there for as long as you wanted to drink vino and talk Disney history with the woman that always seemed to be tending bar. If I remember correctly, she had been working there for a while – as in decades.

Unfortunately, the Wine Cellar shuttered about a month after we left LA.

Vegan Matcha and White Chocolate Covered Strawberries

I've had such a grouchy few hours. Like every coffee shop I went to to work was either packed, lacked outlets, or both. I finally landed in one of my favorite neighborhood spots, and every table near a plug was occupied by someone without plug needs(SERIOUSLY). Despite all that annoyingness, I'm finally in a decent mood. I figured out a temporary plug solution to use until a table opened up (one did), and the coffee shop speaker is blasting Now That's What I Call Music! Volume 1. I recognize it because I owned that CD and played the hell out of it in my teens. Also, I'm finally writing about these amazing Matcha and White Chocolate Covered Strawberries, a recipe that's been hanging out in my drafts for far too long.

When I say 'best' I mean it. I might be biased, but these buffalo seitan bites beat any other buffalo-sauced dish I've had. They are based off of the Barbecue Buffalo Seitan Bites in my book, Fall FoMo No More

Savory Whole Grain Pumpkin Crackers

I really enjoy making homemade crackers. The process is easy and similar to making cookies. They're perfect for those moments when you want to bake, but need to chill with all the sugar you've been eating.

Salsa and Guac Collaboration w/ The Judgmental Vegan ft. Green Apple and Grilled Fennel Guacamole | Vegan MoFo 2015


I can't believe we're a week into Vegan MoFo already! Today's prompt was to Reach out! Make a new vegan friend, and I have to admit that I way slacked on it. Luckily, there are two people in this community who were more put together on this than I was, and they reached out to me thus saving this post and my blog from being really lame. If it weren't for them I'd still be sitting here trying to figure out what to do. I'm talking about Michelle from Boards and Knives and Rachel from The Judgmental Vegan. Aka my heroes.

vegan circus animal cookies


I miss these cookies. I'm posting them now, but I actually made them weeks ago. I'm just looking at them here, and remembering how good they were. How much they took me back to those cheapo cookies I ate as a kid, and how this batch was all gone in less than 24 hours.

These Vegan Circus Snack Cookies are inspired by Baking the Goods' recipe for homemade Circus Animal Cookies. If you're unfamiliar, Circus 
Animal Cookies are these little animal shaped graham cookies covered in a waxy coating and topped with sprinkles. They're cheap, un-vegan on so many levels, and leave memories that paint them as the tastiest snack ever.

Don't you just love muddy buddies? I usually reserve them for Fall and Winter, but after seeing versions of this patriotic variety all over Pinterest I decided to make an exception. My Red, White, and Blue Muddy Buddies are vegan, and contain no artificial coloring. Dehydrated fruit is this recipe's secret to July 4th colors.

This gorgeous queso is my nod to Cowboy Queso, a popular menu item at a local restaurant here called Kerbey Lane. In my pre-vegan days, almost every post-swing-dance meal at Kerbey started off with a big bowl of their special queso containing black beans, guacamole, and pico de gallo. My version contains almost the exact same components, but I swapped cashew queso for the dairy queso.

Confession: I've had this Vegan Pizza Dip in my draft folder for months. Actual months. Super lame, I know. You know how some posts just won't come together? No matter how great the recipe is, no matter how inspired you are to write about it? This was one of those. This dip is crazy good, but my first few drafts of this post? Not so much.

Vegan Queso Blanco


Update 2017: I recently updated this recipe to make it a little more robust, and easier to slice/shred. I've reduced the amount of non-dairy milk from 1/2 cup to 6 tablespoons. If you prefer the previous texture, just continue to use 1/2 cup non-dairy milk instead of 6 tablespoons. Thank you!

Finally, a beautiful and mild vegan queso blanco for my repertoire. These days pre-made vegan cheese and vegan cheese recipes are a dime a dozen, but here's why I needed my own: I've never really liked cheese – not before I was vegan, and definitely not after. I was the weird kid at the table who pulled my cheese off of pizza (still do), and never ever ate cheese and crackers (still don't.) However – as with most things – there is one exception.

It's no joke – these rosemary, sage and sea salt pretzels really take less than an hour. And they're delicious! They're browned and salty and perfect like a pretzel should be.
