Vegan Pav Bhaji Recipe

by Tazim Damji

Vegan Pav Bhaji

Celebrating how much you love you partner, children or others doesn't have to mean defaulting to the old standbys of breakfast in bed or cake.

While others I know celebrate anniversaries and how much they love each other out at restaurants where prices are raised for occasions like Valentine's Day, I've always preferred to cook at home. Cooking a meal at home, preferably with ...

Sometimes, you want a quick meal; something that is easy to put together and eat. Other times, a slow meal is what you're craving. In the case of haleem, you'll be able to enjoy the process of making the meal, plus the end result (isn't it great when you can love the journey AND the destination?). But, just because haleem is a slow-cooking kind of meal, that doesn't mean that it's hard to create. This easy vegan haleem recipe only uses a few key ingredients and a package of Shan haleem recipe ...

by Tazim Damji

Vegan Halloween Recipes

Having a get together with friends and family this Halloween? Or maybe you're having a party for one (honestly, that's how I usually celebrate most holidays)? I recently found a ton of fun, easy, and (yay!) vegan halloween recipes. I like that they're also healthy recipes, not ways to use up leftover halloween candy (not that there's anything wrong with that), since I never buy any.
