This past weekend, my friends and I headed to Harvest Home in Stockton to visit an animal sanctuary. It was my first time visiting an animal sanctuary so I was very excited. I had seen photos before but meeting the rescued animals up close and personal no doubt gave a different experience. For one, I got to pet…
Vegan Coconut Pie “Buko Pie”
The holidays wouldn’t be complete without pies-warm, sweet, filling pies. To change things up a bit from apple and pumpkin pies, I’ll be making and bringing Vegan Coconut Pie to the party. Vegan Coconut Pie or Buko Pie is a delicacy of Northern Philippines primarily in provinces like Laguna and Tagaytay. Its coconut goodness will…
Roasted Caramelized Kabocha Squash
Recently I’ve been into oven roasting everything, roasting kale, roasting brussels sprouts, and now roasting kabocha squash. I love that the process of roasting makes the vegetables taste sweeter and more charred, not to mention it’s also very simple to do. One of those “set it and forget it” type of cooking.

Soul Veg, Vegan Soul Food in Chicago
Not so long ago, I went to Chicago for my boyfriend’s sister’s bachelorette party. I was the only vegan in the group but everybody was cool about it. They even let me meet up with a friend who lives there. My friend Joy who lives there now was equally gracious. She let me choose our meeting place knowing very well…
No Bake Lentil Flatbread, Gluten Free and Vegan
I’m a sucker for lentil chips and lentil snacks so I was looking for a way to create something similar at home. I’ve tried two ways in making the flatbread: with cooked lentils and with uncooked lentils. Both versions resulted to great flavor and texture. The first version, the one with cooked lentils, reminded me more of…

Lentil Coconut Hominy
To further learn and further appreciate vegan cooking, I’m taking an online plant-based cooking course on Rouxbe Cooking School and right now I’m on the topic of beans and legumes.
