This is my first post in two weeks because life has gotten in the way a little bit, as it tends to do this time of year. But I’m back to my weekly schedule now and am super excited to share this recipe with you. I’ve been running quite a bit lately, training for a…

Vegan Yack Attack On the Go: Cookbook Recipe and Giveaway
When I decided to start The Nut-Free Vegan last year, one of the places I looked to for inspiration was Vegan Yack Attack. I’d been a reader for a while, and when it came time to build something of my own Jackie’s recipes and photographs were incredibly influential. That’s why it’s extra exciting to be…
Kale Caesar Salad with Nut-Free Dressing
Everybody loves a good Caesar salad. I used to devour them like crazy when I was young . . . until I found out they often had anchovies as an ingredient. The idea of that freaked me out. Funny how you can love something until you understand what it is, and then your preconceptions get…
Southwestern Detox Salad
It recently occurred to me that a lot of the recipes I post on The Nut-Free Vegan incorporate processed foods like fake meat and dairy-free cheese. These—especially the latter—are important ingredients that I think those just starting a vegan diet appreciate. For those of us with nut allergies, the cashewless cheese is super helpful so…

According to the 10-day outlook on my phone’s weather app it seems like spring might have finally arrived here in the Northeast (though I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to wake up to a foot of snow come Mother’s Day). This is great news because I’m so ready to leave a few layers at…
Watermelon Salad with Quinoa and Herbed Tofu Feta
Summer is winding down and that means watermelon won’t be in season much longer. Like every year, I feel I didn’t eat enough of it. However, I do have a whole one sitting in my refrigerator for when I get home tonight, and I’m going to dive in as soon as I set my bags…
Easy Chickpea Salad
For the past year or so I’ve been hearing a lot about pulses. If you’re not sure what these are, they’re things like beans, lentils and chickpeas. I guess word is out that they’re pretty good for you. I try to use them as much as I can, but I have to confess that I’m…
Meat-Free Chef Salad
The chef salad is a classic. It’s in every diner in America and is a go-to for a lot of folks for an easy meal. Though its origins and recipe are disputed, its ingredients are pretty much standard: hard-boiled eggs, cheese and a bunch of meat. That’s obviously not something I’m interested in supporting, so…
