21 Jul Portland Vegan Food Tour 2017
The great Pacific Northwest — breathtaking views, an energetic yet calming atmosphere, and some of the most delicious food we've ever had the pleasure of tasting. A few weeks back Jasmine and I set out on a road trip with our sights set on Portland, OR. From there, we made our way up to Seattle, WA, and then back down to Los Angeles, CA. We are here to outline our trip, including the Portland vegan food adventures we enjoyed, and everything else...so let's go!
I haven't had time to recipe develop this week, but fear not, I am not going to leave you guys empty handed!
After the recommendation from my friend 
Every time someone tells me that they have a hard time eating salads, I always tell them that what they are in need of is good a dressing. Not just any dressing, but one that is still healthy and free of any added oils. Why ruin a perfectly healthy salad with a fatty and unhealthy dressing?
Before going vegan and eating healthy in general, I was used to eating my salads doused with ranch dressing. Well, I decided to make a healthier vegan version of ranch dressing, and this is what was born :) I was also inspired by my friend 
Apparently National S'mores Day is Wednesday, August 10? I honestly cannot keep up with all of these holidays, who the heck picks them anyways?
Well, I am going to have to thank that person in part for this recipe, cause if it wasn't for a random email hitting my inbox telling me of this holiday, this recipe would not have been born! I had so so many vegan marshmallows in my pantry and this was the perfect excuse to use them all up.
PIZZA. CAKE. YES, YOU ARE WELCOME :)
Three layers of Sun Dried Tomato Jalapeño Cornbread + refried beans, nacho cheese, guacamole, pizza sauce, all them veggies, is this real life?! Why yes, yes it is :) After promising to you guys this epic recipe in 
I honestly can't remember how Chris and I came up with this recipe idea -- we were chatting one day about future blog posts etc. that we wanted to create, and one way or another, a pizza cake came to mind. Our original idea was a bit different, but after being blown away by mexican-style pizzas from our friends Alex and Kristin (Mr. and Mrs. Vegan), we just couldn't resist. 
Vegan pupusas?!...please tell me I am not the only one who has been dreaming of the day! High carb, low fat, oil free but OH MY GOD so delicious. These are exactly what I remember them to be, and is a recipe that my {nonvegan} family definitely approved of, assuming that them devouring these meant that they were good ;)
