The Healthy Pie Crust

Posted by Shelby, the wannabe chef  

I quite liked this. It was perhaps a bit more difficult to work with than a traditional pie crust, but that's to be expected - they're made with saturated fats for a reason! I was overall surprised by how well this worked. I added a few... — cooledskin Nov 23, 2009

Apple Torte (Easy-Only 3 Apples)

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Oolala  

I followed other reviewers' suggestions and cut the sugar, but I went down to 1/4 cup, and then used 1/4 cup of applesauce & agave nectar mixed. I also subbed two egg whites for the egg, a soy and whole wheat flour blend for the flour, and used... — cooledskin Nov 19, 2009

Vegan Blueberry Muffins

Posted by Vino Girl  

These were so tasty and easy! I used kamut flour, sunflower oil instead of margarine and a combination of sucanat/agave nectar to keep this recipe clean, and they were great! I will definitely be making these again. — cooledskin Oct 16, 2009

This made for a simple breakfast-for-dinner for my daughter and I. I halved the recipe and omitted the cheese, but added some fresh spinach - deslish! I will definitely make this recipe again. — cooledskin Sep 5, 2009

Easy Vegan Apple Crisp

Posted by aerobicon  

Following the recommendations of others I put more sugar in the topping and less in with the fruit (I used black currants and strawberries with the apple), and added some extra oil to the crust (no margarine). I wish I had added some cinnamon too,... — cooledskin Aug 30, 2009

Stained Glass Window / Lollipop Cookies

Posted by brokenburner  

These cookies are very good. I can't believe nobody has rated them before! They look very dramatic and labour-intensive, but they're incredibly easy. Thanks for making me look good! — cooledskin Aug 25, 2009

Maple and Flax Cookies

Posted by Guessica  

These are great! So tasty! I halved the recipe and still got a little over a dozen cookies, so you must have been making some pretty big ones. Anyway, I replaced the maple syrup with butter flavoured E. D. Smith's because that's all I had, and... — cooledskin Aug 18, 2009

Aromatic Peas and Carrot Pilaf for one

Posted by Anu  

I really liked this. It was a really yummy pulao, and easy to do. My only quibble is that the rice cooking times were off for me, but otherwise this was gold. — cooledskin Aug 14, 2009

Syrian-Style Lentil and Chard Soup

Posted by One Happy Woman  

HOLY COW. This was absolutely *fantastic*! So fresh-tasting and rich. The lemon gives it a great tang, and even my two year old ate without complaint. I considered halving the recipe, since it's only my daughter and I eating, but I'm glad I... — cooledskin Aug 9, 2009

Vegan Peanut Bread

Posted by Smileyfroggy  

This recipe is really tasty, but calling it "bread" is a little misleading. In actuality, this loaf is more like a corn muffin. It's very crumbly, but also very good. It would make a great accompaniment to vegan chili! — cooledskin Jul 5, 2009

Chocolate Smoothy (Vegan, Eat for Health)

Posted by VegSocialWorker  

This was mega-high on the carbohydrate scale (like 70% of the recommended daily intake!), so I halved the banana and skipped the dates, but upped the soymilk to make it more drinkable. I also added 1 Tbsp. of protein powder. In any case, this was... — cooledskin Jun 15, 2009

Cinnamon Apple Chips

Posted by Chef1MOM~Connie  

These were good! I halved the recipe and used Sugar Twin to lower the calories, but it was still tasty, and a great snakc to sneak into a theater instead of buying crappy popcorn. Thanks for posting! — cooledskin May 20, 2009

Blondies

Posted by Taramsl  

These are tasty, and are a lot like vegan pancakes I've had - very filling! They are "light" for vegan baking, but not in general. I also subbed almond milk for soymilk, and if anyone else does this, you'll have to triple the amount of liquid. — cooledskin Apr 8, 2009

Chocolate Snaps

Posted by pdxjosh  

These were good, but in order to get a stiff batter I had to add about 2.5 ounces of soymilk. And then they melted into these impossible-to-get-off-the-sheet blobs. But man were those blobs tasty! — cooledskin Apr 8, 2009

Pecan Pie Crust

Posted by Darlene Summers  

This was actually pretty good! I wanted to make a lemon cream pie but had no graham crackers. The taste is different, but it's still quite good. I'll definitely keep this in mind when my celiac sister-in-law comes calling! — cooledskin Mar 18, 2009

Plum and Prune Smoothie

Posted by Lani D  

It took a few sips for me to warm up to this smoothie. The plums and prunes didn't totally liquefy, leaving tiny dark flecks / chunks in the final product. It tasted alright, but the texture was a little strange. Still, after a few more sips I got... — cooledskin Mar 15, 2009

Autumn Pear / Apple Pudding Cake

Posted by Pa. Hiker  

I had a bag of badly abused Asian pears that I needed to use up, so I found this recipe. I had no ginger so I used the cinnamon with the pears, and it was perfect. So tasty, and so easy! I made it for breakfast and ate it with cream. Clearly I'm a... — cooledskin Feb 6, 2009
