Better Than Instant Mashed Potatoes and Gravy

Posted by Ryann On October - 6 - 2011

It’s Thanksgiving-time in Canada-land this weekend. There is no better way to feel glaringly vegan than attending a family gathering entirely centred on food. For many of us, it goes without saying to always bring a main (might I suggest Chick** Pot Pie or Vegan Shepherd’s Pie?), but vegan friendly sides can be slim pickings [...]

Chipotle Black Bean Burgers

Posted by Ryann On October - 5 - 2011

Hey! You know what I forgot? I forgot that since it is Vegan Mofo, I am suposed to be theming it up with my posts. My original intention was to do something centered on kid friendly recipes and teaching children healthy eating habits for life, but my first two posts have been kind of pity-party-complainy-narcissistic [...]

Orange Thai Curry

Posted by Ryann On October - 4 - 2011

Welcome to autumn, my friends. I myself don’t care for it much. Don’t like the dampness, the early-onset darkness or the shameless manner in which the foliage starts shedding its clothing.

And what says “we have got it easier than anyone else on this planet” better than tasty, tasty cupcakes? Nothing. Nothing at all. I super [...]

Pressure Cooker Black Eyed Peas with Dill

Posted by Ryann On June - 22 - 2011

Yes, yes, yes, it has been awhile! You are right! It’s been a busy, life-rearranging time for us over here at MyWholeDeal.com (which is just me. Shhhhhh. Sounds more professional if I inflate the numbers a little), but methinks we are finally back on track. Methinks, anyway. As I mentioned in my last post, oh [...]
