Vegan Italian “Shepherd’s” Pie

March 29, 2014 by Cara

Vegan Italian Shepherd's Pie - Fork & Beans

This ain’t your mama’s Shepherd’s Pie. Well, hold on, Fact: an actual Shepherd’s Pie is filled with lamb. Another Fact: This recipe is filled with lentils, in Fact it is also flavored with Italian spices and herbs which is (Fact) not in an actual Shepherd’s Pie. Hence the quotation marks in the recipe; hence the vegan/Italian part. Let us…

Cinnamon ABC Crackers (gluten-free vegan)

March 28, 2014 by Cara

Cinnamon ABC Crackers (gluten-free vegan) - Fork & Beans

It’s official. I am entering that place in life where I can no longer do certain things with my body without negative repercussions. So here’s the deal: My job requires a lot of sitting at a computer. That, mixed with my dad’s terrible spinal genes (that’s a real thing, right? ha) causes for deep pain in my lower…

Homemade Cookie Crisp Cereal - Fork & Beans

Remember on Saturday when I made homemade gluten-free vegan tortillas thanks to Lexie Croft’s Everyday Classics cookbook? Remember too that I hosted a giveaway of said cookbook in that same post?

Lexie Croft’s Everyday Classics Cookbook (and a Giveaway)

March 22, 2014 by Cara

Gluten-Free Vegan Tortillas from Lexie's Kitchen Everyday Classics Cookbook - Fork & Beans

It’s a rare thing for me to say that a cookbook inspires me. I know that sounds strange because I surround my life around food and why wouldn’t a cookbook inspire me? But the truth of the matter is there are few that truly speak to my heart. There are even fewer that I have actually woken…

Cinnamon Streusel Mini Coffee Cakes

March 21, 2014 by Cara

Remember when you were in college and those times when you would crave something sweet to eat? You would scrape up a chunk of change from anywhere you could find it, put your sandals on, and drag yourself out of your dorm room down the hall to the vending machine to grab yourself a 3 pack of those Hostess…

Raw Vegan Banana Splits

Raw Vegan Banana Splits - Fork & Beans

This weekend here in Los Angeles we were experiencing a record-breaking heat wave. It was 90 degrees. Look, I’m not saying that to rub it in. That heat is miserable to me. I’m like a cranky old woman in desperate need of a nap when it’s that hot. (Not to mention I wasn’t all that fond of…

Homemade Cheerios

March 17, 2014 by Cara

Homemade Cheerios - Fork & Beans

DISCLAIMER:  I’m still working on figuring out how to make these cereals not get soggy too quickly when immersed in nondairy milk. So if you make these, you have been warned. I haven’t quite figured out how the cereal factories do it. If anything, just enjoy the pictures and possibilities.  The process of making homemade Cheerios…
