a Cauliflower Creamed Spinach Hand Pie is my delicious contribution to Pi Day, but these work with lunch or dinner all year long! vegan, gluten free, tasty good fun!
happy Pi Day!
As a former accountant and overall math nerd, it would be irrational of me to let Pi Day go by without acknowledgment.
Besides, it is the one time of year I recycle that irrational joke.

Vegan Air Fryer Recipe Collection – crispy crunchy, quick and easy, savory and sweet! air frying is the game changing cooking method we all love!
Game day parties, holiday soirées, Happy Hour at Home, and a quick and easy meal any time – air fryers have become a most used appliance in so many kitchens.
I bought my air fryer just this last summer, after literally years of deliberating over the purchase. Did I need another appliance? Would I use it, or would it end up in the garage? Will it really “fry” things to a delicious crisp without being dunked in deep frying oil?
Well.
I can tell you that ours has a permanent spot on our counter, and we use it all the time! Leftovers, quick burrito style wraps, sandwiches… the list is literally endless, and we have this ongoing question of “will THIS air fry?”
You may remember I reviewed a wildly fantastic resource of a book by my friend JL earlier this year: The Vegan Air Fryer. If you are interested in air fryers, recipes, ideas, and community, JL has a Vegan Air Frying Enthusiasts group on Facebook – also a great resource.
I have several new air fryer recipes coming at you in the new year – and so many ideas I have yet to try! This Vegan Air Fryer Recipe Collection is most of everything I have shared in the last six months, and older recipes that we now cook in the air fryer.
Also! I normally test out and add baking instructions to all of my air frying recipes – so even if you do not have an air fryer, all of these recipes can be baked as well.

Vegan Plant Based Holiday Recipe Collection – from appetizers and breakfasts to sides and desserts, we have you covered for the most wonderful time of the year!
I love the holidays.
Parties, getting together with friends for events, time with family.
For the actual holiday, if I am in town, I am generally at mom’s pretty early in the morning, so we can spend the whole day. We cook, we eat, we talk and laugh and play cards and watch movies and eat and drink.
I can safely say the food plays a pretty big part of our holiday events. I love to plan the menus, try new recipes to serve alongside the classics I cannot do without.
Like many things, half the fun is the planning.
Having been a vegetarian for most of my life, I never cared for the main course. I was all about the appetizers, snacks, sides, and desserts. Even now as a vegan, I can still make a great dinner with a plate full of sides.
and that is what I am sharing with you today – my many years of vegan holiday recipes.
Sides, snacks, breakfast, appetizers, desserts – most are also gluten free.
In no particular order – have fun browsing through!
