This is truly the best carrot cake I've ever had, vegan or not. I would love to give credit where it's due, but I got the recipe from a lovely lady who brought the cake for a potluck lunch. The occasion was a spay/neuter clinic in Charlottesville where I was volunteering.

These Butternut Muffins were a bit of a gamble. I had some butternut squash puree leftover from making my Butternut Squash Pie, and some blended tofu from making my Mango Pie and I wondered why I couldn't just marry these two into a blissful breakfast food . And just like that, these delicious muffins were born.
These Butternut Squash Muffins are great breakfast material. Or pre-breakfastmaterial, or even brunch material. They are made with whole wheat, include a veggie, and pack a protein punch with the tofu. How much more can you ask of a muffin?

Imagine a bubbly hot pot pie with a crisp, flaky, golden crust, filled with a creamy mixture of sweet carrots, melt-in-the-mouth tofu cubes, and tender, buttery potatoes.
Now imagine you're eating it.
Does it get any better than that?

Lime & coconut are indeed a perfect couple – here they are married into a wondrous and moist cake. The flavour is sublime, the texture crumbly, moist and a little zesty. The frosting is morish, and all together it is very much a ‘please make again mum’ type of cake. We had it for dessert too, as we stored ours covered in the fridge. We also had it for tea with Earl Grey, which was a perfect afternoon snack. My husband confessed that he even had it for breakfast – it was the last portion left and he stole it first thing. Now you know all this, here is the recipe for you. Enjoy baking, making and waking to this delightful cake !

“Baking cupcakes that are moist, light, eggless and dairyless seemed like an almost insurmountable challenge to me when I first went vegan. Brainwashed as I had been through years of baking about the importance of butter and eggs to the process of cakemaking, I believed that a good cake was impossible to make without these ingredients.
I admit I lived through a few mistakes: cupcakes that weren't fluffy, cupcakes that were too tough, and cupcakes that just weren't, well, what cupcakes ought to be. Until, inspired by some cake veganizing tricks from the fabulous book “Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World”, I improvised this recipe. And then, I felt like a Cake Einstein.
My Lemony Vegan Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting are, to me, a small triumph for veganism. They taste so good, I bet they'd convert any skeptic. Desi is a regular cupcake gourmet and even he agrees these are among the best he's tasted.
So go on, I dare you. Put on your baking gloves and take a s

Edgy, zesty and mouthwatering to the full – this salad is perfect to eat as a main course, perhaps with a hot, crunchy wholemeal baguette – or as an accompaniment to virtually any meal you wish. Soaked in a rich and tasty dressing, I wanted to hit the palette on all its dimensions – sweetness, a tad of spice, Mediterranean, and with lots of zang !!!
NOTE : The trick with this salad is to cut each ingredient into very small squares/pieces.

The wonderful people at “The Complete Guide to Vegan Food Substitutions” have given us another recipe to enjoy. This is accompanied by the “Perfect Cream Cheese Frosting”. This traditional favorite usually calls for artificial food color.

Inspired by a Turkish recipe – zucchini, onion and feta fritters – which are usually fried, I opted for a bake instead. I made this into a pie without the crust. It’s very easy to make, and very tasty too. You can make this a day ahead of serving if you wish. Kids love it. Serve with a mixed salad of your choice, or better still try my Middle Eastern Style salad with it.

This is one of those recipes that my sister got it from a friend who got it from a friend, etc., and no one knows its true origin. Regardless of its pedigree, it's very good.
