Easy Potato Wedges

I have always been a fan of potato wedges, but somehow never really tried making them myself…don't ask me why! For the past few weeks since I first made these, I have been obsessed with homemade potato wedges. It's such a quick and easy recipe and perfect for those nights when you don't feel creative and just want to munch on something ;)

Vegan Waldorf Salad

This is a vegan version of the classic Waldorf salad. It's a really nice side dish and what I also liked was miking it with some lettuce- then you have a mixed salad and you don't need a dressing for the lettuce because the Waldorf salad is juicy enough!

Moose Nanaicecream

I have fallen in love with Nanaicecream lately ever since I discovered it on Instagram! The fact that you can make ice cream out of bananas is pretty spectacular :) And you can add just about anything you want to it!

Spicy Szechuan Lettuce Wraps

The inspiration for these lettuce wraps came from an appetizer I had (before I was vegan) at Cactus Club in Vancouver, CA. It is a spicy chicken lettuce wrap and tastes mindblowingly amazing (no exaggeration). Since I wouldn't want to live without these for the rest of my life, I knew I had to try and reproduce a vegan version of those wraps!
