Celebrate Pi Day with Sweet and Savory Pie

March 4, 2018 by Kristina Sloggett 9 Comments

Celebrate Pi Day with Sweet and Savory Pie – this collection of pie recipes are vegan, gluten free, and super tasty. make one or several pies and acknowledge one of the more unique “food holidays” this year!

You guys.

It’s March.

First day of Spring. Sunshine. St Paddy’s Day. SXSW. March Madness.

SUNSHINE.

…and for the math nerd in me, Pi Day.

Longtime readers know I celebrate each year. Always with pie, often shaped into Pi. At the very least, a Pi symbol carved into or built up from crust.

My 2018 Pi pie recipe is coming up soon, I promise.

and it is good.

In the meantime, to kick off the month I have a Pie Collection for Pi Day – sweet and savory, pie for everyone! Included in my years of recipes I have pizza, I have breakfast pie, I even have pie bites. For this upcoming important day, however – all the pies I am sharing here today were specifically made for Pi Day.

You can quickly see how I can tell the difference.

So, Celebrate Pi Day with Sweet and Savory Pie recipes:

Delectably Rich Vegan Chocolate Mousse Cake

Oh hey there, rich chocolate cake layered in fluffy chocolate mousse and bright raspberry jam.

How you doin’?

My dessert cravings are generally few: cheesecake or mousse, brownies or chocolate cake. This layered lovely encompasses two of those: tasty chocolate cake surrounded by layers of rich fluffy chocolate mousse.

Chocolate mousse frosting, but really – I may have made this “frosting” as a stand alone dessert too.

You would have done the same.

Vegan Valentines Sweet Recipe Collection

February 11, 2018 by Kristina Sloggett 8 Comments

this Vegan Valentines Sweet Recipe Collection has all the pinks and reds and sweet and sparkle that any of your Valentines could wish for.

Vegan Valentines Sweet Recipe Collection

ah, Valentines Day.

the holiday so many like to dislike.

Single or attached, I have always liked Valentines Day. Single and spending it with friends, or in a relationship and celebrating.

Jason and I typically do not celebrate with a night out, and these days we may not always do gifts.

Well, since getting married, we actually do the traditional anniversary gifts on this day. Because Valentines Day is the day we secretly got married in 2014. Yep, we were married with just a few loved ones as witnesses, with my brother in law officiating. Karaoke and cupcakes after. It was a perfect Valentines Day, and later that same year – in the fall – we had the big ceremony and party.

Also just as glorious, with all of our loved ones in the same room – such a vibrant concentration of super love.

Anyway, not everyone likes Valentines Day.

and that is okay – I get it.

I will always like it, and I will always create pinks and reds in sweet flavored treats!

I don’t need a card or fancy night out, and I definitely tell ALL of my loved ones on a regular basis just how important they are to me. Commercialization or not, I still love the holiday about love.

So, whether you are celebrating or not, I imagine you too can find something you like from our Vegan Valentines Sweet Recipe Collection…

Super Flavorful Instant Kimchi Noodle Soup

Simple Savory Mushroom Burgers

Simple Savory Mushroom Burgers – quick, easy, and supremely tasty! these sturdy burgers have great flavor, and can be baked or air fried.

Simple Savory Mushroom Burgers

These here burgers have a flavor I like to call shroomami.

I am sitting here in complete bliss after enjoying one of these super flavorful, savory, mushroomy burgers.

A super flavorful burger hugged by a super soft bun that is slathered in cashew mayo and piled high with all kinds of texture goodness: creamy avocado, juicy tomato, crispy cool pickles and sturdy purple cabbage.

or leafy greens.

The leafy greens on the burger with the sesame bun were added right before I capped it all with the bun to eat, because it turns out I am super picky about burger lettuces. They need to not wilt too terribly much.

…and a liberal spooning of Spicy Coconut Almond Sauce works wonderfully here.

These …

I simply used …
