Peanut Butter Addiction

Alisa's Recipes25 Comments

I was looking through the recipes I’ve created thus far for my next book, and close to 50% of them have peanut butter, nut butter, seed butter, or ground nuts in them (with a hefty chunk being just peanut butter). FIFTY PERCENT! I think I need to tone this down for the nut allergic folks out there. This prompted me to look through my recipe index online today, and again, I noticed a trend … Chocolate Double Peanut Butter Thumbprint […]

Homemade Maple Oat Bread

Alisa's Recipes16 Comments

I owe you all some winners from the last two giveaways, but today is recipe day, so that will have to wait. Nothing fancy, just a good loaf of bread that I adapted from Kevin’s recipe over at Closet Cooking. He tops the loaf with maple sugar. I did sprinkle on a little coconut sugar one time that I made it, and it was tasty. It enhances the maple flavor and gives that nice sheen to the bread that you […]

Tempting Fudge “Ice Cream” with Magical Peanut Butter Shell

Alisa's Recipes31 Comments

Ah, the things I do to taste the latest dairy-free foods. Cooler box packed into the car, we headed down to Reno, and the nearest Whole Foods. Of course, the trip to a town that is 45 minutes (and an “over-the-mountain” trip) away was about more than Whole Foods, we had errands to run. But I never pass up the chance to stop in to buy a few things since we visit less than once a month. On this trip, […]

Peanut Butter Truffles and Cheap PB Cup Molds

Alisa's Recipes35 Comments

This past week I was honored to do a guest post on Maggie’s blog, Say Yes to Salad, in honor of her much-anticipated marriage. I chose to write about the peanut butter truffles we made by hand (about 300 of them!) for the favor at a good friend’s wedding. This post is related to that post, but there’s a little more to it. First, I wanted to add that recipe to my personal online blog collection (it is also in my […]

Fresh and Nutty Maple Fig Spread

Alisa's Recipes18 Comments

Today I am doing a guest post on The Whole Gang for a continuation of 30 Days to a Food Revolution. But, I also get to post it here. The idea is that I offer a tip for healthy living (whole foods and from scratch kind of stuff), and a recipe. So here you go … Recipe: Fresh Maple-Fig Spread (recipe below) Tip: Treat yourself to a ‘new to you’ food at least once a month, and a healthy ‘splurge’ […]

Chocolate Explosion Oatmeal Cookies

Alisa's Recipes23 Comments

I was in a baking mood and my husband was in a cookie eating mood, so I whipped out my copy of Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar for a little inspiration, and to give the book another go. So far, it has been a little hit and miss … the hits scoring big points, and the misses still tasting okay, but often a bit too sweet and lacking in the performance category. Fortunately, the Chocolate Fudgey Oatmeal Cookies were […]

Spiced Apricot-Cashew Smoothie

Alisa's Recipes20 Comments

Two days before we had scheduled for a week-long vacation, my CSA delivered with the motherload. Figures. Not that I am complaining, but finding ways to use up bags of fragile greens in two days is no easy feat. And then there were the apricots. 5 lbs of Blenheims and Pattersons quickly nearing their peak of perfection. And then, when we returned, they gave us 5 lbs more! With dozens (and dozens) of these little gems on hand, I thought […]

Apricot-Raspberry Crumble Bars

Alisa's Recipes13 Comments

My home is still overflowing with apricots from our CSA, so I knew they would make their way into some sort of dish for our “neighborhood” 4th of July BBQ. Last year we moved into a small group of tall condos that share a very nice common backyard. Since it is a tourist town, we only have a few permanent neighbors, while the rest are vacation homes. But almost everyone is in town for the 4th of July to enjoy the mountain air […]

Economical Whole-Grain Spelt Tortillas

Alisa's Recipes13 Comments

Usually, I only post recipes that are “my own” in the sense that I made them up in my little head (not to say someone else out there couldn’t have made up a similar one in their own head – really, how many original recipe ideas are truly left?!) or I have significantly altered a recipe. Seriously, I have a hard time leaving those ingredients and directions alone. But once in a while I find a simple gem … one that I just […]

Soft Serve-Style Peanut Butter Cravings

Alisa's Recipes25 Comments

I just noticed that most of the smoothies on my blog include banana. Believe it or not, I do take the occasional banana break using mango, avocado, or other fruits for thickening power, but I am not going to apologize for my love of this sweet and highly accessible fruit. In fact, I am going to share my current favorite breakfast today that features, you guessed it, one big, sweet banana. Why the obsession with bananas? Of course, the taste […]

Thick Mexican Chocolate Smoothie

Alisa's Recipes16 Comments

Do you ever associate things in your head that may or may not actually be related? I really have no idea what a classic “Mexican chocolate” type of recipe would entail, but when I think of cinnamon, almonds, and chocolate the label just fits. If your version of Mexican chocolate needs a kick, I suggest a little ginger (fresh, powdered, or crystalized), rather than cayenne, to keep with the sweet smoothie theme. Since I make this beverage so thick, you […]

Sweet Simplicity: Whole Wheat Vegan Pancakes

Alisa's Recipes38 Comments

With mother’s day on the horizon, and many pancake Sundays to come, I just had to share this delightful yet oh-so-basic breakfast / brunch recipe. These pancakes have a very pleasant flavor that is not too sweet (just right for your favorite toppings), and a perfectly fluffy texture. I frequently keep our toppings quite hearty. When I make waffles, I often top them with homemade nut butter, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and a light drizzle of honey. But for these, […]

BSI Recipe: Sweet Asian Sunflower Slaw

Alisa's Recipes7 Comments

Wow, did I have a heck of a time coming up with sunflower seed recipes that I was happy with! You can read about my many trials here, but I did finally settle on a couple of recipes for the BSI submission. Here is one of them … My husband was cooking up a barbecue-style lunch, so I thought a little slaw might go nicely. But to mix things up, I forgoed the mayo for a sunflower seed base and […]
