Day 10 of the Vegan Month of Food Potatoes are by far the most popular item in our house. Is it the starchiness? The sheer versatility? The fluffiness that only comes piping hot out of the oven. All of the…
Vegan Peanut Butter & Jelly Cookies
Day 9 of the Vegan Month of Food (sorry, I took Day 8 off) There is no shortage of Peanut Butter Cookie Recipes on the internet, vegan or otherwise. Also, I’m sure these cookies aren’t the first of of their…
