Holiday Celebration Salad with Creamy Beet Dressing

Image Leave a comment December 15, 2021 Vicki Brett-Gach

I created this salad for the first time right after Thanksgiving, and I’ve already made it several times since. I was hoping it would resemble a holiday wreath of sorts, and the contrasting colors and shapes made it so much … Read more


Shortcut Roasted Carrot Hummus

Image Leave a comment September 30, 2020 Vicki Brett-Gach

I like to have store-bought hummus handy most weeks, just for convenience. That said, homemade hummus usually tastes so much better!

I’ve been getting plenty of carrots in my weekly CSA (community supported agriculture) box, and like to oven-roast them … Read more


Jalapeño Queso

Image 4 Comments March 6, 2019 Vicki Brett-Gach

It almost strains credulity that plant-based ingredients alone can create a queso this creamy and versatile.

Dip your baked whole grain tortillas HERE..of course. But don’t stop there. Drizzle everything you’re ready to love even more – from bean burgers … Read more

Creamy Vegetable Soup with Collards and Chickpeas

Oh my goodness, this Creamy Vegetable Soup is just about the best thing in the world, especially on a snowy winter’s night.

It’s my spin on a 10-Spice Vegetable Soup with Cashew Cream created by Angela Liddon (from ohsheglows.com). … Read more


Roasted Carrots, Potatoes, and Onions (Oil-Free)

Image 4 Comments February 17, 2016 Vicki Brett-Gach

Roasted Carrots, Potatoes, and Onions (Oil-Free)

This is a favorite of mine. I never get over how good these vegetables are. I’m pretty sure they remind me of the pot roasts my mom used to make, and even then, the richly flavored carrots and potatoes were … Read more


Zucchini, Carrot, and Pineapple Breakfast Muffins

Image 6 Comments November 4, 2015 Vicki Brett-Gach

ZUCCHINI, CARROT, AND PINEAPPLE BREAKFAST MUFFINS

Sometimes one thing leads to another.

That’s what happened when I decided to make zucchini muffins a few days ago.

First, ZUCCHINI, CARROT, AND PINEAPPLE BREAKFAST MUFFINS 2I thought it would be fun to add carrots for extra color.

Carrots reminded me of carrot cake, and … Read more


Red Cabbage and Mango Slaw

Image 8 Comments April 29, 2015 Vicki Brett-Gach

Red Cabbage and Mango Slaw

Cole slaw doesn’t usually sound very colorful or exciting, but this one may change your mind. I think it’s incredibly delicious, and I have a feeling you will too.

With crunchy red cabbage, crispy carrots, delicate cilantro, and smooth, sweet … Read more


Indonesian Peanut Sauté

Indonesian Peanut Sauté

Longtime readers of Ann Arbor Vegan Kitchen may remember a recipe for Thai Noodles with Spicy Peanut Sauce that I wrote about two years ago. It remains one of my most requested recipes, but today it’s getting a mini makeover.… Read more


Vegetable Vindaloo

Image Leave a comment May 21, 2014 Vicki Brett-Gach

Vegetable Vindaloo

Sometimes dinner is just so good, you can hardly wait for leftovers the next day.

This is one of those recipes. Vegetable Vindaloo is a spicy Indian curry, which derives from a Portuguese dish flavored with wine and garlic. Indian … Read more


Creamy Cauliflower and Carrot Soup

Image 1 Comment November 14, 2012 Vicki Brett-Gach

Creamy Cauliflower and Carrot Soup
Creamy. Comforting. Rich. Indulgent. Those words don’t usually conjure up an image of vegetable soup. But maybe they should.

A vegetable soup this satisfying and delicious might sound like a contradiction in terms. However, this Creamy Cauliflower and Carrot Soup … Read more

Just finishing up the recipe for these Fresh Pineapple Shakes! 🍍
Join us this Sunday, June 4th! I’ll be doing a live cooking demo with Michele Gallo at NOON! And look for my table where I’ll be selling and signing copies of “The Plant-Based for Life Cookbook” all day long! @vegmichigan 💚
We just spent 3 nights in a hotel in Traverse City and stayed completely oil free WFPB - with homemade food - for every meal while we were there. It took just a little bit of planning. Brought my @zavoramerica pressure cooker, to prepare the best-ever mashed potatoes 🥔 plus @zavoramerica induction burner and sauté pan, to make sautéed greens 🥬 (with a shallot and riced cauliflower). Also brought with us leftover cooked whole wheat pasta and homemade pasta sauce 🍝along with frozen batch-prepped red lentil and black bean soup that I had stored in my @soupercubes (which also helped keep everything cold in the cooler on our drive too). We just mixed and matched all of those ingredients plus @foodforlifebaking Ezekiel English muffins, @kitehillfoods cream cheese and lots of fresh fruit for the most delicious combinations! Shout out to @zestplantbasedkitchen for their awesome breakfast/lunch to take with us for the drive back home to Ann Arbor!l 💚
Ready for an easy Summer Red-Skinned Potato Salad? I’m so excited to be demonstrating this recipe on June 4th, at Spring VegFest at Eastern Market in Detroit! Hope to see you there!
Just finished taste-testing these new Espresso 0atmeal Cookies! Make sure you’re subscribed to my blog for the recipe, coming very soon! ☕️🍪
Our tree peony just bloomed today!
